Titania Update - This Film is Now Seventy-Eight Percent Funded, Four Days To Go

[bellakara.livejournal.com]

This is a quick reminder that the Kickstarter fund for Titania is now at $7803. So far, 142 people have backed the film. Pledges can be as little as $5. If the fund does not reach its target figure of $10,000, no money pledged will be taken. There are only four days to go now. A necklace and headpiece designed by Jennifer Parrish for a character in the short film is currently up for auction at Ebay. Money raised from the auction will be added to the fund. So far, 16 bids have been placed with the top bid at $262. Bidding will also close in two days and two hours. Here's the link:
