Hey guys, As I've mentionned a few times around here, I'll be leaving with a buddy for 9 months around the world on a tandem bicycle, and we'll be shooting a free web series (that'll be edited when we come back). We don't want to make a typical travel show but a show that focuses on the cities, particularly young groups of people with something in common (passion, hobby, lifestyle...) or not, to try to see what their life is like around the world these days. It'll just be the cameraman and sound guy (me and my friend)
This is the presentation video for our crowdfunding campaign:
http://www.indiegogo.com/guttersurf
as we're lacking funds for audio equipement (no zoom h4n for us) and a few things here and there. I've read a few times the objection some have to the crowdfunding concept, as often people are asking for money in exanche for their product, when there is no further info as to who they are or any proof of the validity of their product. I agree.
This is not that, we're looking for donations only (with some fun thank you rewards) and the show will be free for all, we're looking for support not customers.
I'm not really here to ask for y'alls money though (although do please feel free!), what you all could do to really really help us out is help me spread it around a little. It makes all the difference to us! Social websites spread the word in a near exponential way if it has even a mild success, and it'll be the best way for us to expose our project to potentially interested people. A "like" on fb or retweet can go a long way! Find us here on facebook : http://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Guttersurf-the-Hardly-Shot-Shot/248490435218032 but you can also link us directly from the indiegogo site which contains everything. You can also tweet our capaign directly from http://www.indiegogo.com/guttersurf
Also I know a lot of you are spread all over the world and we would love to meet up with anyone on our way (or anywhere in between), so if you find yourself in it don't hesitate to reach out we'd love to find you! There's a complete list of all the cities at the end of the video, and we'll add it soon on the webpage.
Thanks, Surya and Paco.
