Contributing to the Dick Figures Kickstarter means personally contributing to my livelihood!

There’s been some confusion over what exactly is the plan for the funds raised by the Dick Figures Kickstarter, so Ed and Zack made this helpful video to break down the budget and show a little bit of what goes on behind the scenes.
I can’t tell everyone how much the support means to all of us at Six Point!
Just upped my pledge, had no idea you worked at 6 point.
Same here, pledged after seeing this post!
okay yeah, I’ll go pledge noaw.
oddly this is the first kickstarter ever that I’ve actually *decided* to put money towards. despite all of the wonderful things that I’ve seen since Doubefine’s success. might be because i have a minor hobby of making pretty shitty animations. and it also seems rare that something like an animated movie would go the Kickstarter route.
but anyway, SINCE THAT WAS SUCH A COOL STORY I THINK I’LL GO PLEDGE SOME MONIES TO INTERESTING THINGS NOW.
I started watching the series after it was linked here the first time. Well, actually, I started by watching the movie promo clip, then I went for the $60 donation package for full access to the Hi-Res downloads and the artbook, THEN I went and watched the series. So… did things a bit backwards, but I don’t regret it at all! Awesome series!
…and now that I see the $100 reward, I’m seriously considering upping my pledge… damnit…
NOOOOOOOO….
I missed out on the Squid-autographed hat…
I was tempted, but I figured $50 was too much for a hat, autographed or not, considering the fact that I cannot wear hats. They all look awful on me always and forever.
I wouldn’t likely wear it, I’m just a sucker for stuff like that :P
*sigh* They released another batch of 50, and I jumped on it. Goddamnit Coela and all your awesomely projected involvedness… erm… something like that. Everything you touch is gold, so knock it off. It makes it very expensive to live the kind of lifestyle I like at being able to fling money around at people and things who are golden. >:O
Woo Hoo! I get Coela’s Signature!!!
… Oh yeah and those Zack and Ed guys signature too …
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE FERRARIS?!
Seriously though, that was most informative. I’m not a massive fan of Dick Figures, but the project has my support.
So… i like the series. But do they really need al that people & equipment to animate THAT?
Now that i know how many people are behind the product, i think they could have done it much much better.
It’s a deceptively simple series, they use simple character designs to afford an animation quality not typically available on a youtube series budget. Remember that even shows as crudely animated as South Park costs more than $300,000 per 22 minute episode.
Hm. Ed and Zack are kinda hot.
I will say this, judging by the number of hats going around, you guys are gonna get sick of signing them if you don’t somehow ink-transfer them.
Wow…somebody seems to have had a bad experience with DBZ. O.o
Wow, i just watched all the dickfigures episodes and then pledged… damn good laugh!
I’m sad, I tried to get Coelasquid on the screen during the livestream but the swarm of comments made that impossible…
