It's embarrasing that it wasn't even remotely close to the goal... but it's ok. I've been trying to make this happen for years now. Maybe there's just no real interest in seeing a zombie puppet movie! Thanks for your support though!

I don't understand it myself. Your goal was way less than what most film projects were asking and you had better incentives. If I wasn't out of work I would have been half tempted to sign on for the $1000 pledge. Maybe sometime down the road you should give it another go. One thing I could see would have made a better sale was if you had some test footage or even a few of your puppets in your presentation video. I noticed a lot of the projects that get money usually have some test footage up.

Completely agree about using test footage or using the puppets. I did shoot quite a bit of footage for a trailer but it just didn't happen. If I decide to pick it up again, I will definitely put the footage together so people get an idea of what the final project will look like.
