Dear Friend,
We're two thirds of the way through our campaign and with just 9 days left, we're still very much on track to reach our goal, (but, no, we're not there yet!). So far we've raised over $22,000 from over 220 Backers.
I wanted to highlight a few of the unique rewards we're giving away at various donation levels, (because what would Kickstarter be without fun rewards?!?)

$25 Support Level
For just $25, you'll not only get to stream the film when it's ready, you'll also get your name in the end credits, a free download of an unreleased song from our amazing composer Lili Hadyn, (who George Clinton called "the Jimi Hendrix of the violin"), and an autographed digital pic of Patrick Fabian, with your very own custom message. You tell Patrick what you want him to write to you, he'll write it and sign it. You can choose a pic of him as Howard Hamlin (from Better Call Saul), Cotton Marcus (from The Last Exorcism) or Professor Lasky (from Saved By The Bell: The College Years). |

$55 Support Level
This may be our best value. In addition to everything from the $25 level, you also get a signed postcard; director Henry Barrial's Guide to Ridesharing in LA eBook; and also, all 5 of our films on DVD! Let me tell you about one of them...
Some Body, our first film together, premiered at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival in the festival's most prestigious section, Dramatic Competition. It was picked up for distribution by a hot new company called Lot47 Films and was released theatrically all over the country. Then Lot47 fell on hard times and went under, before they were able to release Some Body on home video. So, this amazing film, this lost classic, is only available here!
Some Body is about a newly-single school teacher who hits the LA Singles Scene with a vengeance. It perfectly captures the highs and lows of dating in the turn-of-the-century, and received glowing reviews, including:
"A sexually odyssey charged by raw nerves!" - The New York Times
"Startling, funny and painful!" - Screen International
"A painfully funny ode to bad behavior!" - The Los Angeles Times
"A spirited and poignant bulletin from Singlesville!" - Film Journal

| | $250 Support Level
At this level you get a laundry list of stuff, including everything I've mentioned so far, plus a Stay-At-Home Dad Cook-eBook; an invite to a private test screening of the film; an autographed DriverX script; an autographed Better Call Saul pilot script; our custom-made Ultimate Rideshare Guide eBook, with helpful articles from rideshare experts and also a special section written by Leonard (our main character) entitled Leonard's Late-Night LA Rideshare Survival Guide, which includes valuable information on where to get good coffee at 3am, where to pee, where to wash the puke off your car, and other helpful nuggets; a custom signed 8x10 of Patrick Fabian, (this time in hard copy, to frame on your wall); and a personal birthday video from Patrick. But wait, that's not all!
You'll also get free attendance to one of my upcoming 2-day weekend No Budget Film School classes. This class retails for $275, making it alone worth the price of the whole level. And yet, that's still not all. You'll also get a 30 minute phone consultation with me about your no-budget filmmaking pursuits, and finally, you'll get a DVD of of me embarrassing myself on national and local television. That's right, you'll see me on the Jerry Springer-hosted dating gameshow Baggage; the Nat Geo Wild TV show Pet Talk; and also classic appearances of me on the local news in Houston, TX in the early 90's. In one segment, I saved a woman from a burning building, (I shit you not!). |
