A while back we reported on Jeremy Snead’s documentary Video Games: The Movie, a film that discusses the finer points of the game industry as well as what makes it so special. Snead set out to get funding for the film’s post-production (he’s already filmed all the interviews) via KickStarter and we’re happy to report that it has met its goal of $60,000 with several days to spare.
Snead’s not done yet. He’s recently added some “stretch” goals to the campaign, in which could make the film better. If it reaches $80,000, he’ll reach out to a celebrity to narrate the film (might we suggest Nolan North?), if it hits $100,000 he’ll be able to use popular songs in it, and if it goes to $120,000 a composer or well-known band can hop on board to score the entire film.
A variety of subjects were interviewed for the film (including yours truly), so it wouldn’t hurt to add some extra oomph to it in post production. We certainly can’t wait.
