More results are pouring in. When the Dallas Film Society recently undertook its Kickstarter program for the 8th annual Dallas International Film Festival, the group crossed its combined fingers hoping that they would get a response.
Did they ever get a response!
Thanks to 234 supporters from around the world, they exceeded their initial goal by 2.5%, resulting in $35,870 being raised to “bring in talent, producers and directors of the films showcased at the festival.”
“What an outstanding response by the national and local backers to our Kickstarter campaign, our first ever attempt at ‘crowdfunding’” said Lee Papert, President and CEO of the Dallas Film Society. “The Dallas International Film Festival is continuously growing and we look forward to bringing another successful festival to Dallas with the help of all the donors to this Kickstarter effort.”
Start making plans to be on a popcorn diet from Thursday, April 3, to Sunday, April 13, when the DIFF commences.
