Sing Along: The Making of a Short Film
You guys, there isn’t enough people who know about this movie. Reach out to them, help them, I know all of you love theatre so please help them out!
It’s a Kickstarter project to create a short film about a young boy with Broadway dreams starring some great Broadway actors and directed by Mark Oxman!
For $125+ I get to go see the private screening of the premiere and meet the cast and crew. Who are they??
Alice Ripley from the OBC of Next to…
Here is the update video we filmed yesterday, to give a shout-out to those who backed us on Kickstarter. While I was editing it, we ended up meeting our funding goal with five days to spare.
You might recognize a familiar face in the video, especially if you’ve been following “Sing Along.” To those who haven’t, it’s a short film starring Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), Sam Tsui, Myles Erlick (Billy Elliot), Uzo Aduba (Godspell), Heidi Blickenstaff ([title of show]), Patrick Page (Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark). Oh, and Remy Zaken (Spring Awakening).
As of now, Kickstarter is the only way to get a copy of the DVD and soundtrack. There are also other cool rewards on there including tickets to the premiere. Only three $125 premiere tickets are left; after that, they will cost $225.

So I worked on this update video for five hours to thank now 60 backers (twice as many as in the first two) and then, while editing, discovered we had met our funding goal on Kickstarter! HOORAY!
Obviously, we still are taking pledges for anyone who wants a copy of the soundtrack, or a DVD screener (might be the only chance to see the movie short of attending a film festivall). In the meantime, we have only THREE $125 tickets to the premiere left; after that, they cost $225!
For those who don’t know, “Sing Along” is a short film starring Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), Sam Tsui, Myles Erlick (Billy Elliot), Uzo Aduba (Godspell), Heidi Blickenstaff ([title of show]), Remy Zaken (Spring Awakening), and Patrick Page (Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark).

The Kickstarter ends the evening of August 17th. Please spread the word!
I made a video for all the people who helped us raise $7000 in our first week. Hopefully it makes you laugh.
If we get enough backers this week, I’ll post another one Monday.
Hey, everyone. We’re only one week in and we are close to having met 50% of our goal. If you can get to New York next spring, this is your only chance to attend the premiere with star-studded guests… and for the next 25 backers, that ticket is only $125 (normally $225). But if you just want a copy of the soundtrack and the DVD, this is the only time they will be available to the public. The short film is being done for industry professionals who are interested in my feature length film — so we won’t be releasing the movie commercially after we’re finished raising production costs.
Please support today if you are interested in “Sing Along.” It’s done through Amazon payments but you won’t be charged until the campaign ends on August 18th. You can even adjust your pledge before then.
Thanks! And email me at mark@singalongmovie.com with any questions.

I am not sure if my Tumblr is clear since I am very new to this site. But I’m working on a short film starring Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), Sam Tsui, Uzo Aduba (Godspell), Myles Erlick (Billy Elliot), Heidi Blickenstaff ([title of show]), Remy Zaken (Spring Awakening), and Patrick Page (Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark).

The Kickstarter for “Sing Along” was launched today. We have some early bird specials — go to the New York premiere in spring 2013, with cast and some well-known guests. The ticket is $225 but the first 30 will get in for $125. Four already claimed… and we’ll be doing it on a weekend on request from a fan from Texas.
If you’re interested in this or other rewards, please help support the film so we can get it made.
PS - Kickstarter is an all or nothing site. They reserve your reward until the campaign ends (August 18th). Then you’ll only be charged if we reach our goal. You can also adjust the amount you bid, up and down, after you place it.
