Venice: A Crowdfunded Series

[ysabetwordsmith.livejournal.com]

A friend tipped me to this unusual crowdfunded project. Venice is the brain child of a soap actress who played one half of a lesbian couple on
Guiding Light. When that show got canceled she wasn't ready to stop delivering a positive message about the gay community. Here are some resources:

The series will be broadcast on the web later this year. Apparently they're taking donations to help defray costs.

No, they aren't taking donations. But they are selling merchandise via a storefront to help fund the first season, which has been shot. The second season is in pre-production.

You can also check out information at Venice The Series (http://www.venicetheseries.com), though at the moment the website is being moved to a new server to accommodate the series launch on December 4, or find out more via the Venice Facebook Page (http://www.facebook.com/album.php?profile=1&id=110016459291#/VenicetheSeries).
