Hey Dear Friends!
Well, what did you think? So many of you watched the film this weekend and I got lots of GREAT notes about how much you liked it. Thank you!
"Just finished watching my kickstarter link for the full film. It was everything i expected, it was so damn amazing. I loved every second of it, and it was well worth the many years of waiting!" -Dale
Review Frank & Zed on IMDB and Letterboxd!
There are a couple places online that you can 'Rate/Vote" Frank & Zed! This is a great way to support the film is adding a review and a rating yourself.
My very first storyboards for Frank & Zed are HUGE. This was when I was really taking time and drawing everything exactly as I wanted it. I've created 10 shadowboxes that feature one of the very first Frank & Zed storyboards, a hunk of the castle and Frank's metal lightning rod, and a bit of the brains that Zed eats. All screen-used! I'll sign and number each one and include a bonus signed standard storyboard card as well.
Lastly, most of you have completed your backer surveys - Thank you! Anyone who hasn't, check your email for a contact from Backerkit. This survey gives you a chance to check your order, address, and name in the credits among other things.
Note: Purchases made on Backerkit have not yet been charged. Backerkit forces me to charge all cards at once, so I haven't done it yet. FYI I plan to charge cards for any add-ons purchased on Wednesday.
Whewf! That was a BIG update.
Thanks for sticking with me through it all!

Frank & Zed Fest Schedule!

Hey Friends!
Tomorrow is the day!
Screener links SHOULD start arriving by the middle of the day. I have never done this before so please be patient. There shouldn't be any errors but sometimes things happen.Links will come to you via Indee.tv so check your spam folder if you don't have them,
You will be able to watch the film Friday - Sunday. You can only start it twice though. If you hit a snag, just let me know.
Credits - Your credits are not yet in the film. Many of you have filled out the surveys. I'll use these to complete the final credits
Watermarks: The screeners will be watermarked. This is pretty annoying but the only way I could get the film to you. I apologize ahead of time for this. Again, not ideal but I hope you can look past it. For what it's worth, this is how all movies get screened to critics SO it's kind of like you're all a bit extra fancy!
ExtraTickets & Stuff! We're still trying to raise some finishing funds for the film. If you have friends that might like the movie, please direct them HERE to grab tickets!
FestStuff! Here are the events we have planned for the fest. Again, I've never done this before so please be patient if we have some technical issues. Right now, we are planning on doing everything via Facebook. My apologies if you've cut the cord on social media; we may find a way to get you recordings afterwards.
BackerkitBackers Note: You will likely receive this update late. Again, I'm sorry. The way the updates cycle through Kickstarter and Backerkit can cause big delays. If this has compromised your experience, let me know and I will make it right!
That's it! So excited for you to see the film!
Happy Halloween!
Jesse

Hello Friends!
You should be receiving an email soon from Backerkit. This is the service I'm suing to get all the rewards to you. If you don't see it, make sure and check your SPAM folder or contact me.
NOTE:This is my first time using Backerkit and it's likely I've made some mistakes. Let me know if I have and I'll get it sorted!
This is my first time using Backerkit so there may be tech issues. Just let me know if there are!
NameInThe Credits:
If your reward includes getting your name in the credits, the Backerkit survey will have a place for you to enter it. If you have any trouble with this, send me a message and I'll get it figured out!
Add Ons!
If you paid extra during the campaign for an add-on, you should receive a credit that will allow you to purchase it. You will also have the option of snagging additional add-ons.
BluRays & DVDs
Because I'm still not sure when I'll be able to ship discs, I didn't make them available for purchase as an Add-On. I hope to make them available later when I have a clearer timeline.
Address Change
Everyone will have a chance to update their address in the survey. So, if you've recently moved, no problem-o!
Frank & Zed Fest this Weekend!
A reminder, we are doing Frank & Zed BackerFest this Halloween Weekend! You'll be getting another email soon that will tell you exactly how your can stream Frank & Zed.
Thanks for your patience and let me know if you have any questions,
