Update 1: The IndieGoGo Campaign is going to be launched at 9:00 AM PT. 9 hours to go... Make sure to get back here for a link. :)
Update 2: Here you go guys, help the film out:
Vampire Academy: Frostbite campaign
Update 3: Good news, vampires, we are going strong
Almost 19 000$ were collected for 35-6 minutes. Keep up with the good work!
Update 4: We got $57 000 in like 5-6 hours. That's amazing. Keep supporting.
Here's a message from the producers:
Hey there, vampire fellows, I know everyone has been wondering whether we would get a sequel. The word I out and we now it's official.
The producers said that they already have a scriptwriter and are willing to make the second movie. There is a catch, though. We, the fans need to help them. The creators have launched a campaign on IndieGoGo and are making you for help. They said in their statement they needed 1.5 mil. dollars.
“We decided to move forward with ‘Frostbite’ because of the fans, and we want to give them the purest book to film adaptation possible. We have a script by Piers Ashworth [screenwriter of "St. Trinian's"] that does just that. We want to give them exactly what they expect.”
You would think that a film studio has money and doesn't really need these but look at what the producers said:
“Our financiers were willing to move forward ONLY if we could show them the fans would support us,” Nayar said. “It’s not an exaggeration to say that we would not be here without them.”
It looks like the makers really do want to make a second installment. If the goal of 1.5 mil. is achieved, the pre-production should begin later this year and filming should start in early 2015 and the film is expected to hit theaters at the end of that year.
The campaign launches tomorrow, August 6th. I will update when there is a link available.
What do you think? Will the campaign reach it's goal? Be sure to let me know what you think in the comment section down below. :)
