TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3889 - I wanted to bring this KickStarter Campaign to your attention today. Miguel Cima, a Facebook Friend of mine, messaged me about it. Miguel and others were involved with the short film 'DIG COMICS' that gained much international attention when it premiered a few years back. It was honored as an official selection at the Cannes Film Festival, Vancouver International Film Festival, LA New Filmmakers Festival as well as 15 more festivals and then ultimately, won the Best Documentary prize at the San Diego Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival! Now, this project is a KickStarter Campaign. With a large goal to be met. You see... After years of meetings trying to convince Hollywood networks, studios and production companies that comics deserve the spotlight, filmmaker / raconteur Miguel Cima is now turning to the people for help in financing this project. Embracing the underdog appeal of comics, Cima calls on the converted comic fans and professionals to come together in making real a project that hopes to benefit the comics industry. So when you are on the KickStarter Campaign link, be sure to watch the fundraiser short video, and then the short film that won the Prize at the SDCC, to see what this campaign is all about. There is additional text there to show what will be done with the monies collected. I want to present a few links here: The Dig Comics Kickstarter Campaign link. The Dig Comics! Facebook Fan Page. The Dig Comics! web site. I urge you to take a close look at these links, and join in with a pledge, even it is only a dollar! This campaign appears to be a darn good cause to support. Be sure to watch both videos to see what this campaign is all about! ~ Michael
