A Swarm of Angels is a new way to fund film-making. The plan is to make a £1million film funded by the donations of 50,000 individuals. If you join today you can get in on the second wave- they’ve taken money from their first 100 investors as a proof of concept, when they reach 1000 they’ll be able to fund pre-production. Can I afford £25?

There may be a market for Web Patron after all.
