FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOS ANGELES—Runic Films and Blue Serif Productions are proud to announce the launch of their Kickstarter.com fundraising campaign for their Western short film Cowboy Creed. From writer/director Ben Alpi and producer J.T. Tepnapa, filming is planned for November. To view their video and learn about becoming a backer of the film and receive great “thank you” rewards, visit http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/runicfilms/cowboy-creed-short-film.

Cowboy Creed is about Phineas, a young man trying to find his way in the strange land of the California Gold Rush. “Phineas’ world is turned upside down by a deadly international criminal nicknamed ‘Limey.’ I really look forward to filming these characters,” Ben said about the film.

JT added about their Kickstarter campaign, “We’re thrilled to be utilizing Kickstarter, a great community fund raising platform. Anyone can go to the page and check out our video and of course, become a Cowboy Creed backer!” The team also noted that Kickstarter uses this all-or-nothing funding which means all pledges are logged and nothing is charged unless the total pledges equal or exceed the posted goal.

Ben said, “Also on our Kickstarter video is an exclusive casting announcement! To find out what the special announcement is, visit our Kickstarter page!”

“In return, we’ll be rewarding backers with a whole slew of great rewards like signed DVDs, posters, a limited edition printed sketchbook of the film’s concept art, set props and more!” J.T. said.
