Okay, we’ve been keeping this project under wraps for a while now. We were getting everything lined up and ready before revealing it to the public. As of this morning it was officially announced that Word of the Nerd and Good Girls Gone Geek are partnered in a venture to make a documentary film about the comic/sci-fi/fantasy convention experience title A CONvoluted Story. The goal of our new production company, The New Normal Productions, is to interview and feature attendees to get their input on why they find these events so special, while also chronicling our own journey.
The film will cover us traveling to four different events this year, C2E2 in Chicago, Dragon*Con in Atlanta, HeroesCon in Charlotte and NYCC in New York. Along the way we will be doing interviews, podcasts, webisodes and social media postings documenting the entire process. The entire film will be produced on nothing but Apple products like iPads and iPhones. We feel it will keep the film making process a little more personal and at the same time giving us a unique take on the filming experience.
In order to cover our expenses for travel, lodging, admission and filming equipment, we have launched a Kickstarter project to help raise money to make our film a reality. We sincerely hope you will help us get our project off the ground and ask for your support. If you’re a fan of Word of the Nerd or Good Girls Gone Geek, share this with your friends and family. We only have 60 days to raise enough money to be able me our deadline, so time is extremely short. In the coming weeks we’ll be pushing our project across social media so please bare with us while we pander.
