Crowd funding campaigns we love

Here at The Fitzroy, we’re huge fans of crowd funding and not just because it helped us get the Fitzroy off the ground. We truly believe it is a great way to create and share new ideas and projects.

So in the spirit of the season, we thought we’d share a few of the projects that have caught our eye recently.

Frogman Returns

Who doesn’t love superheroes and frogs!

“He’s green, he’s wet, he ain’t your pet… he’s FROGMAN, and he’s back in this ‘darker and grittier’ comic book sequel.”

Obvious Child: a 2014 Sundance World Premiere!

Obvious Child looks like a very funny and touching film, premiering at Sundance.

Life Itself

If, like us, you love cinema, you really should check out this feature documentary based on the late great Roger Ebert’s memoirs.

Ralph’s Life Charity Music CD

A great cause and a great idea! Help produce a double CD of unsigned UK Indie bands and artistes, to raise both funds and awareness for mental health in the UK.

I hope you like them as much as we do and you can give them a tweet or facebook mention and help spread the word. If you have any projects that you think deserve sharing too – please post them in the comments below.

Disclaimer time: We’re not personally involved in any of these projects, some are by complete strangers, some by friends (both online and real world). Some we have financially backed, others we support by helping spread the word. All of them we just think are pretty awesome.
