The money raised through this campaign will help the film be finished to a professional standard of quality, but it will also go toward the creation and shipping of some of the cool perks we've got for those of you who donated.

Like we said before, we have already shot the movie, and a rough cut has already been put together, so we'll be using your money to fine tune it, as it were. This includes:
- Color Grading (making sure that the piece has a steely cold post-apocalyptic look)
- Editing (making sure it's nice and tight and paced ready for public consumption)
- Sound Mixing (making sure you can actually, y'know, hear what the hell these characters are talking about and making sure that the world is built up not just through visuals but through audio as well)
- Music Composition (because sometimes you really need some piano to tug on your heartstrings)
But that's not all your money will be paying for. We'll be able to pay the cast and crew who worked so hard on this project and gave up their time for free to make sure the damned thing actually got shot. They spent many a weekends on the moors, with nothing but flimsy umbrellas to shield them from the battering rainstorms that attacked us during filming (incidentally we lost 9 umbrellas - RIP)! They were as committed a group of people as any film-maker could hope for and we'd love to show our gratitude by paying them for their effort... or, at the very least, buy them a bottle of Sambuca.
And, as if that wasn't enough, the money raised through this campaign will also go toward financing to ensure that
Follow The Crows is entered into as many festivals (both national and international) that it can be. That's right, with your kind donations we'll be sending this sucker on a world tour! Who knows, it might even lead to something bigger and better!
The important thing to remember here, though, is that no matter how much we raise the film will be being
finished, and it will be getting some form of release - be it On Demand or on Home Video. We've already shot it, and we're hard at work on post-production as this campaign runs, but the money we raise will help to make it a
better movie than it ever could be without. Your donations mean our movie will be the best, and we can't thank you enough for that!
But we can try...

Okay, so let's get down to it. It's all very well and good us telling you what we'll be doing with your donations, but what do
you get out of it? Well, aside from that warm, gooey feeling we spoke of earlier, we have a whole heap of fantastic perks to offer too!
-
You've paid into the pot, so don't pay again later! In fact, we're giving out DVDs and Blu-Ray copies of the finished movie as perks for certain donations! If you don't want all the other stuff offered in those packages, you can always choose one of our add on perks and get yourself a DVD or Blu-Ray copy that way! And what's more, we're also offering a limited number of tickets to the Premier of the film, meaning you'll get to be among the first to see the final product on the big screen, we'll even throw in some popcorn and a Coke.
-
Your money helped us make this film, share in the experience of making it! We've already got some behind-the-scenes stuff online at our YouTube channel, but for those of you choosing to donate you'll also be getting access to an exclusive behind-the-scenes documentary, which includes in-depth interviews with our cast and crew! And if we hit £3,000 on our funds then we'll also be releasing a round-table discussion with key members of the team, available only to those of you who have donated to the cause.
-
Since you're a part of the family now you should get some souvenirs! Let people know you were a part of the movie by hanging a Follow The Crows poster on your wall, or why not bust out your copy of the script, signed by the cast and crew (guaranteed to break the ice at parties)? Some of you will even be getting an exclusive Follow The Crows T-Shirt to keep you warm during the cold, apocalyptic nights. And if that wasn't enough, we're also offering a personalized thank you and signed photographs of the cast and crew.
And if you've been really generous we've got even more to offer.
-
Hang out with us! As well as Premier tickets, we're also offering up a limited number of tickets to the After Party, where you'll be wined and dined and get to chat sh*t with the entire cast and crew of the movie. But be warned, some of them get lary after a drink or two!
-
Be memorialized in film! Yeah, for those of you who choose our higher perks, not only will you get a thank you in the credits of the movie, but we're also offering some of you the chance to have your name listed as an executive producer in the opening credits, as well on on our IMDB page, website, posters, DVD and Blu-Ray covers and anywhere else it might appear! And what's more, if you're a company or sole trader, one of our packages offers you the chance to have your logo appear at the start of the film alongside 22six Productions, Rrats Kram Films and Infinite 8 Productions!
-
Take a piece home with you! The top perks in our campaign are also offering up a figurine of one of the three lead characters. These figures are extremely rare! There are ONLY 22 OF THESE BAD BOYS in the whole world and there will never been anymore, so this is a very special and exclusive gift for those of you who want to take it!
You can check out all the perk packages you can claim here, and don't forget to keep checking back until the campaign ends, we've got target perks we'll update as and when we reach them, plus we'll have more content uploaded regularly for your viewing pleasure.

Have you already bought a package but still want to help? Are you a little low on cash, or perhaps you like us, but just not enough to spend any money? Well, there are other things you can do to help out. We can't stress enough how much every little helps.

Tell everyone you meet about us! Small talk is for dummies! No one cares about the weather, so why not try a different strategy? Trapped in a lift with a colleague from work? Let them know about all the awesome perks they can get their hands on if they donate! Show everyone our videos and link them to the page. Do it online as well, and if you use our hashtags, or tag us in your posts we'll even share your stuff as well!
-
Make everyone watch the trailer! It doesn't matter if they don't want to. You hold them down and force them to watch it. Ever seen Clockwork Orange? Well, get yourself one of those machines and play our trailer on a loop for people. The great thing about this is if you like the person then you're introducing them to something awesome, if you hate them then it's torture! Win/win.
-
Pick up some perks for your friends! Maybe you don't want a T-Shirt, but the cute girl in the cubicle across from yours might! Maybe it's your mother's birthday, consider getting her a DVD or Blu-Ray. Nothing says I love you like tickets to a film Premier (except maybe flowers, or a nice romantic dinner, or the words "I love you")! Show someone how you feel with some of our post-apocalyptic goodies!
