DimeStore Films to Launch Kickstarter Campaign for Comedy Feature Film

Gridelli and Norris is looking for funding for their maiden film 'The Origins of Wit & Humor'

Chicago, IL (prHWY.com) March 26, 2013 - Filmmakers Christian Gridelli and Hunter Norris have announced their plans for funding their first full length feature film, 'The Origins of Wit and Humor' through a Kickstarter campaign which is scheduled to launch in April. The Kickstarter campaign for the comedy film to be made under the banner of DimeStore Films will feature several unique incentives for the contributors that will help them be part of making of the movie along with the prospects of getting fun gifts. The filmmakers have also planned to release a teaser trailer of the film during the campaign.

The Kickstarter campaign will have a goal of $15K which is going to be part of the final budget of the film. Gridelli and Norris plan to use the money to attract investors as well as talent using the funds obtained through the campaign. Aiming at a $50K budget film, the filmmakers state that they will be putting their savings and assets at stake for the film as well. They said, "We're not asking you to give us your money to play with while we keep our assets protected. Much of our savings and if need be, selling our stuff, is on the line."

Gridelli and Norris promise a script that has been honed for several years with a lot of hard work. The script is also time-sensitive, reflecting not only humor but also the emotional content. The filmmakers are also intent on making the film with high quality using even RED cameras.

Some of the collaborative incentives that the campaign offers are the opportunities to play art directors for the film, vote on creative decisions as well as name characters of the movie. For more information, log on to http://www.originsofwitandhumor.com/ .
