Day #2, Tech day, productive tasks

Day #2. Still feeling it.  But still having no clue how to start a mass movement to get this film made.
Flying blind, I decided first to tackle the tech thing. . . So I spent pretty much the last 10 hours, tweaking, linking, oiling all the various social networks together.   So now you can find all the sites on the top bar of the blog.  My Youtube account said hello to Twitter and Facebook, via Indiegogo, and Ustream, all of which got linked to my own company site, Altered Ego Entertainment 
Unsurprisingly, I received zero comments regarding the announcement posted yesterday. . . Maybe once the trailer is up and the account goes live on Indiegogo, the project will begin to gain traction.  The struggle feels extremely steep.  I have no followers per say on Twitter. As for my Facebook friends, most of them would not know who I am.  To say the least, it is kind of strange to do all this on my own, without knowing at all who is going to come on board.

After investigating the various crowdsourcing sites, I decided to settle for Indiegogo.  I found Kickstarter's policy restrictive.  Indiegogo may have a higher % commission, but I like the fact they allow you to have a message or even fight for a cause. . .  I do not subscribe to the artist philosophy. Statement such "I'm an artist" makes me raise my eyebrows.  Since when are artists free floating agents with nothing to say? But maybe I don't understand . . . what they mean.

Two days ago, I made a dummy poster for the film. A quick single picture of a woman, behind foggy glass.  The green hue matches perfectly with the theme of Radium.

Tomorrow, I'll be looking into the legal stuff. . .
