and many more including lots of Doctor Who fans like yourself...

The team behind this film are:

Cameron K. McEwan is a journalist and filmmaker, best known as popular Doctor Who blogger Blogtor Who - a website that attracts over 700,000 pageviews a month. With over 35,000 followers on his @BlogtorWho Twitter account, Blogtor is one of the most influential voices in Doctor Who fandom. He is also currently writing a book, The Who's Who of Doctor Who, due for publication in Jan 2014. Cameron's first Doctor was Peter Davison.

Elisar Cabrera is a film producer who has produced films (Witchcraft X, Love.Honour.Obey in post-production and Ibiza Undead in pre-production), short films (Sweetheart, Beryl), webseries (3some, Those Video Guys) and TV shows (Love Goddesses shown on LivingTV, Revival shown on Bravo channel). A lifelong Doctor Who fan, Elisar also produces the live Doctor Who fan internet talk show, Talking Who. Elisar's first Doctor was Tom Baker.

Jack Ayers is working as a freelancer cinematographer and editor. He studied both theatre and media while at the BRIT School of Performing Arts. He started his career making documentary films and, more recently, has turned to fiction projects, but he has never lost his love for documentaries. Jack's first Doctor was Christopher Eccleston.

By getting your help, you will be an instrumental part of this documentary, helping us to travel within the UK where we can film interviews with fans and people from the Doctor Who "Whoniverse". We are fans as well as filmmakers and we think this film will be a wonderful tribute to the fans who are united in love for a 50 year old TV science fiction show.

We hope to release the final feature-length version on DVD by the end of October in time for the 50th anniversary in November.

But we do need your help:

Why did we start this campaign? Well, there are fan events and conventions around the country and we need to travel to them to meet and inteview fans and people from the series alike at them.  Not only this but the end result will be a professionally produced DVD, which we will need to author and print copies.  This means as filmmakers we can release this film 100% independently (we plan to release late October, one month before the official anniversary).

One of the perks is actually a free gift of the DVD. So even if you can't contribute you can still help by getting the perk that gives you a free DVD copy of the film.

Breakdown in more detail:

• £2100 will be spent on DVD authoring, DVD sleeve design and DVD manufacturing.
• £500 will be spent on travel and accomodation expenses for filming around the UK.
• £1400 will be spent on covering expenses of editing and any additional filming expenses.

If we go over our campaign target, we hope to raise enough to also produce a Bluray version. And then if we get over that target then additional funds will be spent on an international film festival campaign, sending the documentary around the world to the international film festivals. Who knows, we might even win a film festival award somewhere.

It's All About The Doctor Who Fans

There have been plenty of documentaries made over the years about Doctor Who, but we think this one about the fans is unique in that its about fans by fans. The camaraderie that fans have between themselves at conventions is always a pleasure to be around. Fans who have grown up with the show have ended up working in some capacity in media - and they credit Doctor Who as being their inspiration.  

Likewise, we have been impressed with the amazing creativity of fans who attend conventions with self made costumes inspired by the show. And this documentary will be featuring some of the fantastic cosplayers we have met on our journey in making this film.

Everyone from so many different generations now have an earliest memory of Doctor Who and you will hear some of these in this film.

We even have fans contributing some fantastic items which we are giving away in our Perks for your contributions. So please do check out the perks in our campaign.
