Hey, all -- time is running out to make SOUND for Film and Television Vol II a reality -- ONLY 7 DAYS LEFT! We have only raised ~30% of our goal, so this is the crunch!
SOUND for Film and Television has been one of our biggest successes, and over the years, one of the most-requested products has been a follow-up. Now's the time to make it happen!
THERE IS STILL TIME, and WE CAN DO IT!
But if the Kickstarter isn't successful, it never will -- to answer a question which a number of people have asked in private, no, if the Kickstarter doesn't reach its goal, we will not be making SOUND Vol II. This is the only opportunity for it to get made!
We know it takes a lot of faith to pledge toward a product which doesn't exist yet, so we've offered some great incentives --
SOUND for Film and Television Vol II will retail for $89.95. But as a backer, you'll get your copy for $65. AND, you'll get exclusive content that no one else will get. You'll get exclusive mini-lessons. You'll get exclusive production BTS. You'll get outtakes. And, you'll get to be a part of a private DVXuser forum during production for updates, feedback, and even to help guide the content along the way.
ONLY our Kickstarter backers will get all that. So, you'll get $25 off the retail price, lots of exclusive content, and the opportunity to help guide the content.
What we're going to do in SOUND Vol II -- It will be a similar format to the first Sound DVD, with instruction, comedy, cinematic parodies, but also following sound professionals from pre-production all the way through production, post, and delivery on an original film project. So, it'll be encyclopedic when it needs to be, and practical and immersive, too. Plus, we'll be covering sound recording in a live/newsy/documentary environment by being on the set of a reality TV pilot.
Production topics to include:
Post-Production topics:
So, in all, we'll have:
This will only happen if the Kickstarter is successful, so please, don't hesitate to pledge. You won't be charged at all if it doesn't make the goal, so you've got nothing to lose, and so much to gain, by pledging your support.
And the more we raise, the better we'll be able to make it, so please, spread the word!
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE PLEDGED SO FAR!
