Pad: I don't think this is a good point. I think the quality of the plot is the more important part. Adding a filter to a movie is like adding a post processing shader to a game. You can make it look a little different from before but you won't change the quality with that.
Spike, I had a look at some of your episodes. To be honest, they really didn't get me. But thats most likely due to the fact that I dislike most series and I really cannot stand Lost. But my point is something else. Looking at your videos I noticed most of your episodes have ssignificantly less than 100 views. I don't think 5000$ are a realistic goal in this scenario. Even if you had 100 views on every video every of those viewers had to spent at least 50$ to make that work. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to disencourage you. I really like the basic idea of those small episodes. I just don't think the goal is realistic.
Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

I have to agree with Uhrwerk and PadMalcom. The plot doesn't really get me either, although I liked Lost (until the final) and the really bad cuts and acting didn't made it any better...
You really should produce a pilot of the second season with your targeted quality, so that people know what they are buying. Otherwise I can't really imagine that you will reach your goal or get anywhere near it.

@ Azurite: [I am kinda surprised that you have an account here so uhm.. Hi!] I think the whole purpose of a crowdfunding project is to get closer to the consumers of a product and let the artist deliver something that the audience really wants, as the audience decides wether they want the project to be fueled or not and this is also why c&c from the audience are really important for this stuff. This Extra Credits video pretty much explains the point: (in this case for video games which is not much of a difference) http://penny-arcade.com/patv/episode/crowdfunding
