Did You Know?
| Trivia | Unable to secure funding from traditional investors, James Rolfe decided to independently raise money for the film using donations from his fans through both PayPal and the fundraising website IndieGoGo. Though he had initially hoped to raise $75,000 this way, Rolfe managed to raise over $325,000 for the film's budget. Because the project was entirely fan supported, Rolfe was allowed complete creative control over the film. See more » |
