🎬 FINAL DAY — LAST CHANCE TO BE IMMORTALISED 🎬
The Life After Man Indiegogo campaign ends tomorrow.

This is your last shot to say:
“I helped make that film.”
And mean it.

We’re in the final hours — jump in, grab a credit, and become part of post-apocalyptic cinema history:

A huge thank you for backing Life After Man on Kickstarter. Your support meant the world to me.

Because we didn’t reach the funding goal, your pledge was not processed and no money was taken from your account.

But the journey isn’t over. We've relaunched the campaign in two new places and I’d love for you to come with us:

🎁 Want the same perks like posters, digital art or producer credits?
You can now support the project on Indiegogo:
👉 https://igg.me/at/lifeafterman/x/24337225 #/

🇦🇺 Prefer a tax-deductible donation (within Australia)?
You can contribute via the Australian Cultural Fund. Every donation is 100% tax-deductible:

Only 11 of the 56 Kickstarter backers have re-pledged so far. Some thought their original pledge had already gone through, which I totally understand.

There are just 7 days left on ACF and 13 days left on Indiegogo. If you're still on board, now’s the time to jump back in.

Thanks again for being part of this project. I truly appreciate it.

Warmly,
Gareth

To our amazing Kickstarter backers. We see you, and we need you.

Your support on Kickstarter meant the world to us. It gave Life After Man momentum, visibility, and heart.

But we are not over the line just yet.

If you were planning to re-pledge and have not had a chance, now is the time:

🎁 Want your perks?
You can still claim posters, producer credits, and more over on Indiegogo. Every dollar helps us finish this film:
👉 https://igg.me/at/lifeafterman/x/24337225 #/

🇦🇺 Prefer a tax-deductible donation (Australia only)?
Then the Australian Cultural Fund is the best option:
👉 https://tinyurl.com/3bk3kaz6

We have raised $2,130 on Indiegogo and $375 on ACF so far. With your help, we can push through this final stretch and get the film over the line.

Thank you again for walking this road with us.

The apocalypse may be bleak. But the community around this film is anything but.
With gratitude,
Gareth

🚨 62 hours to go – the final push for Life After Man
We’re down to the last 62 hours of our Kickstarter.
$8,201 pledged. 52 incredible backers. 7 years of blood, sweat and survival storytelling.

We’re not giving up. If you’ve been meaning to pledge, now’s the time. If you’ve already backed — thank you. One more share could bring in the next supporter who helps push this further.

Life After Man is more than a film. It’s Uncle Jack Charles’ final performance. It’s a love letter to resilience, survival, and Australian stories told from the ground up.

Let’s finish what we started.

14/07/2025

We’ve got 10 days to go.
47 incredible backers have helped raise $6,426 so far — just over a quarter of our goal.

This campaign has been a rollercoaster. There have been highs, there have been doubts, and there’s still a lot of ground to cover. But I’m proud of what we’ve built with Life After Man and deeply grateful to everyone who’s stepped up to support it.

If you’ve been thinking about backing, now’s the time.
If you’ve already pledged, thank you — sharing the campaign can make a huge difference right now.

Let’s push this across the line.

📣 Mid-Campaign Check-In – Thank You and Let’s Keep Going

We are now 17 days into the Life After Man Kickstarter campaign. We have 39 backers and are 14 percent funded. That might not sound like much, but every single pledge so far has helped push the campaign forward.

This is a self-funded film, made over several years, and now I’m asking for help to finish it properly. The final steps are all about sound, dialogue polish and colour — the details that bring a film to life.

The project also features the final screen performance of Uncle Jack Charles, who brought such quiet power to his role. I am proud to help share that with the world.

If you have backed the project, thank you. If you have been watching from the sidelines, even a small pledge helps more than you might think. And if you cannot pledge right now, sharing the link is just as valuable.

👉 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lifeafterman/life-after-man-a-post-apocalyptic-survival-thriller?ref=46xfpr

There is still plenty of time left, and some great rewards still available. Let’s see where we can take it together.

Big news — Life After Man has just been selected as a Kickstarter Project We Love.

This badge is given to campaigns that show creativity, passion, and potential. I’m proud of the recognition, and even more grateful to everyone who’s backed the film so far.

We’re raising funds to finish post-production, and we’re just getting started. Every pledge helps push the film higher in visibility.

👉 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lifeafterman/life-after-man-a-post-apocalyptic-survival-thriller?ref=46xfpr

Thank you for all the support so far. Let’s keep it moving.

Hey everyone,

Just jumping on here to say a huge thanks to everyone who’s already supported or shared Life After Man. It’s my second feature film, and we’re crowdfunding to finish post-production.

The campaign is live on Kickstarter now and we’re 8% funded with 23 days to go.

Here’s something not everyone knows:
Every pledge helps push the film higher in Kickstarter’s algorithm, which means it becomes more visible to random visitors who browse the site. Even small pledges make a genuine impact on how far the campaign reaches.

So if you’ve been thinking about backing it, now’s a great time. And if you’ve already pledged, thank you — sharing the link is just as helpful.

👉 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lifeafterman/life-after-man-a-post-apocalyptic-survival-thriller?ref=46xfpr

Thanks so much for the support. Let’s keep it moving.
