> "You will provide your own travel and accommodation."
I found it sort of funny that if you pledge the $10,000+ you still have to provide your own travel. Kind of cheap, don't you think, Zach? Haha
EDIT: Yes, I understand the logistics of people making their own travel plans, I just thought it was funny (in general).
- dzlobin 14y agoWell, presumably people who dish out $10k+ for a kickstarter campaign can provide better travel arrangements than the producers can without using half of their donation.

- citricsquid 14y ago$10k from someone that lives down the road = $10k for the campaign $10k from someone the other side of the world = $6k for the campaign you see the problem here with deducting travel costs from the backing cost, right?
- rplnt 14y agoDon't forget $500 for kickstarter and about $200 for amazon.
- doppel 14y agoWell, without it becomes a giant wildcard. Imagine flying someone in from the other side of the planet and providing accomodations - suddenly it ends up being less of a helping hand to make the movie and basically a very expensive premiere ticket and accomodation. All kickstarter rewards basically have to give you somwething back, but still make the project money, and usually the higher-tier rewards give you less monetary rewards and more feel good / influential rewards.
