How to add additional items (Props, Shirts, Etc) to your pledge
over 6 years ago – Thu, Nov 09, 2017 at 10:31:41 AM

Hello, 

It has come to our attention that people are struggling to add items to their pledge. We believe the problem is that pledges must be made to the new campaign. 

Below is the 2015 Kickstarter Page; this will not work for adding new items. 

This is the 2015 Kickstarter Campaign. You cannot increase your pledge here.

Frank & Zed Enamel Pins, Original Score, Murder Village
over 6 years ago – Mon, Nov 06, 2017 at 12:18:41 PM

Hello There Zed-ites!

I am thrilled to reveal our new Frank & Zed enamel pins. We had several requests for these so we jumped in and made them. 

Anyone who pledges to the new campaign can choose either the zombie goo OR the set of enamel pins as a special 'Thank you' reward. We also have new rewards including:

  • Hero Props from the film
  • Custom Gargoyle
  • Name in the film
  • Face in the Film
  • Featured Crew Credit
  • And lots more!
  • All Non-movie rewards shipped early!

I want to make it extra clear that you do NOT need to pledge to the new campaign; you will still receive your rewards. However, supporting the new campaign will improve the movie.

Film News! 

Production on Frank & Zed continues. This Friday I received the super-exciting news that three of my dream musicians would be collaborating on the new score for Frank & Zed. This is a huge deal for the film and I cannot wait to share more details. 

We've also begun production on the miniature for Murder Village. It's shaping up to be amazing. 

Thank you so much for all your support. We are nearing the end of this film journey!
