Crowdfunding allows film fans the opportunity to back films that they want to see! Many crowdfunded films would never see the light of day if it weren’t for the backers, as they don’t have a major studio throwing money at them. In return for donations, fans get early access to screeners, merchandise, their name in the credits, and can even buy a role in the movie, itself! However, not everything always goes to plan, and expectations may be a bit hard to fulfill. John Horton and Kyle Pierson have each spent a small fortune backing productions over the past few years. This episode of ATTACK OF THE SPOTLIGHT meticulously covers each of these contributions to let you know the risks and rewards involved.
