In case you missed our announcement yesterday, we’re raising money for a holiday short featuring Edgar Allan Poe and Lenore the Lady Ghost. Join us tomorrow for our first livestr- uhh – DEATHstream to kick it off and celebrate Halloween!
October 28th, 12pm – 3pm PDT. We’ll have snacks, play games, welcome friends, and hand out special awards to anyone who donates during the stream! See you there!
I’ve been looking out a window for eighteen years, dreaming about what it might feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it’s not everything I dreamed it would be?
There’s one more in the queue for 8 a.m. tomorrow, but it has not only a bird but also a bee. (Everyone loves that sage!) So I’m not sure if that’s one you’ll want to look at.
Be sure and watch the video above, because it will tell you some important and exciting details about our upcoming smallHoliday project! We felt like the low-key crowdfunding we did for American Whoopee really worked, and we want to do it again to bring you a little holiday short that will feature some Shipwrecked standbys. Here are the perks we are offering this time around:
$5 – Early access to our holiday short and a thank you shout out in a livestream
$15 – A holiday postcard signed by Shipwrecked, as well as early access and a livestream shoutout
$25 – 3 Shipwrecked posters grab bag! We have a lot of old Poe Party/Gilded Lily posters lying around, so we’ll pick three at random and send them to you at this level. If there’s one you’re really hoping to get, just let us know. No guarantees, but we’ll do our best! Also includes a holiday postcard, early access, and a livestream shoutout
$40 – American Whoopee poster signed by Shipwrecked – remember this awesome poster Sean designed? Yeah, this right here is your only chance to get it! Also includes the 3 poster grab bag, a holiday postcard, early access, and a livestream shoutout
$50 – A polaroid from set and your name in the video credits. Also includes the American Whoopee poster, the 3 poster grab bag, a holiday postcard, early access, and a livestream shoutout
$100 – A virtual holiday movie night with Shipwrecked AND the character of your choice on your voicemail–choose from Poe, Lenore, Annabel, Emily, and HG. Also includes every single perk listed above.
ALSO, anyone who donates AT ANY LEVEL will receive access to Starbelt Around Uranus, a very weird, very bad short that Sean, Sinead, Sarah, Tom, and Blake made years ago.
Don’t forget to include your mailing address in a note along with your pledge so we’ll know where to send your perks!
We hope you’re as excited about seeing Poe and Lenore again as we are. Head on over to this link to donate until November 18, and join us for a final livestream on that day as well! And thanks as always for making it possible for us to make the things we love to make.
I think it’s always the moments that are the trials that end up making you become a hero in the end. You’re not a hero unless you’ve gone through the trials. And it makes these moments so much sweeter, so much better. I don’t believe in ‘deserved,’ but I might believe in ‘earned.’
“Neither let us be slandered from our duty by false accusations against us, nor frightened from it by menaces of destruction to the Government nor of dungeons to ourselves. Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it.”
