Thank you, fans.

We have passed the $5,000 goal and Season One has been funded.

There are many ways to say thank you, and we don't have space for them all, but we wanted to let you know that we absolutely would not be here, humbled and honored as we are, without your generous contributions, your amazing show of support, and, above all else, your unwavering faith in us as a new web-series challenging an unspeakable evil with a band of heroes similar to us all. 

Thank you everyone who has supported us thus far in our effort to bring the Superhuman web-series to fruition. 

With love,
The Superhuman Team

Kickstarter: Final Days Push

Hey guys,
Director Ben Enke here. We've already asked so much of you to get you to this point. You've donated, you've shared, you've tweeted, you've kicked some serious behind to get us to just within our goal.
Now, we enter the final days. Here's how you can help us, just this one last time.
The Facebook Blitz: Part One. Today from 12PM-1PM.
One hour.
There are currently 52 backers. The average Facebook-er has about 200 friends. Assuming you are all on Facebook, if you share our link, you can help us reach 10,400 people. And that's just our awesome backers.
If we expand that to our incredible Facebook fans, currently at 459, we can reach 91,800 people, for a total of 102,200 people. If we got just 0.015 percent of people to donate $1, we'd reach our goal.
We now ask that you help us reach those people. Share our link to our Kickstarter page. Get people to check out the show, the concept, and the passion behind it. That way, at lunchtime, people can see Superhuman all over Facebook. It just may work. But we need your help to do it.
It's simple. I'll even provide you a sample post so you can copy and paste into your timeline and share it within seconds:
-----
Hey friends! This is a new superhero webseries on Kickstarter called 'Superhuman,' with a great story and a powerful message. It has just over three days to go to meet it's goal and get funded. Please click the link below and consider helping however you can. Thanks!

This is new, and it only works if you help us out. Let's see if we can get those final dollars in.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Kickstarter and Concept Trailer now LIVE!

Hey everyone,

If "Superhuman" wasn't officially underway yet, it is now. We've launched the Kickstarter campaign to our project, and we couldn't be more excited about what the future holds in store for this series.

The link below has a lot of content you're going to want to check out.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1831474015/superhuman-season-1

There's a lot going on there. We've got a Kickstarter video, a concept trailer, a detailed series breakdown and tons of great rewards for contributors.

So what does one make of all this? How do you help bring this project to life?

1) Watch the video. We'll give you a series rundown, a look at some of the aspects of the series, and a breakdown of the budgetary needs in five minutes, and you get to see some of the great footage from the concept trailer along the way.

2) Find a level that you can contribute at. Whether it's $5, $50, or $500, every dollar counts. We have some absolutely terrific rewards for you, so you're going to want to check those out as well, including an exclusive "early bird" special at the $25 level and up. Offer is available only through Friday August 16th, so claim it now before it's too late!

3) Share the project. After you donate, Kickstarter will direct you to links where you can share what you contributed on FB and Twitter. It's simple, quick, and effortless, but it helps us reach more and more people when you do. That's the beauty of social networking.

In three simple steps, you can help us bring our project into reality and become a part of a webseries that aims to become one of many, many chapters in the superhero universe.

So thank you, in advance, for your incredible support, your unwavering confidence, and your superhuman efforts in helping us achieve a webseries that is indeed one of its kind.

Much love,
Ben Enke

One large Superhuman production update

Hey friends,

With production coming around the corner, there's a lot happening on the Superhuman team right now.

Fight Mannequins has produced an absolutely AMAZING score for our concept trailer, and we cannot wait to show you guys the final product. We're excited to show you the very first look into the Superhuman project.

Speaking of first looks, did you see our teaser trailer's teaser trailer? Our tech-savvy crew figured out a way to upload it to Vine (thanks to 'The Wolverine' for the inspiration!) Check it out here: https://vine.co/v/hq012taijKH

With the trailer launch will also come the launch of our Kickstarter effort, which has been our primary focus over the last couple of days. The Kickstarter campaign will attempt to raise a small portion of funds with which we will use to produce Season 1. We're excited to share this epic tale with you all, but we'll need your help to get there! When we launch, be a rock star and share our page and maybe donate a little yourself! We have some awesome perks for donors that I'm sure you'll love!

Lastly, sign-up for the official Superhuman newsletter is now open. Sign up here: http://eepurl.com/DjVmf

I can't say it enough. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for your outstanding support of our efforts so far. We're truly blessed with an awesome cast, awesome crew, and awesome fans, and we're ready to bring you an awesome web series.

Much love,
Ben Enke

Concept trailer WRAPPED

Hey guys,

Officially (and finally), the concept trailer for Superhuman wrapped yesterday evening.

What does this mean? It means that picture lock is coming soon, and we'll be sending that to Fight Mannequins to compose the score. Check them out here: http://www.fightmannequinsmusic.com/

It will debut when our crowdfunding campaign launches. The only thing we ask of you is that you share the link. The more people know about it, the better off our series will be in the long run.

Big thanks to the cast for putting up with our strange hours and rain reschedules, as well as to the crew for assembling a collection of amazing work that is a reflection of how our series will look and feel.

And of course, thank YOU for supporting us thus far. This is just the beginning....

Much love,
Ben Enke
