FAQ:
- Q: As you plan and scope out this movie, what do you anticipate will be your biggest challenge in the realization of this project?
  A: Another great question! The biggest challenge for us is that we have a limited budget to produce the film, which, in turn, means that we have limited time and fewer days to shoot it. We are scheduled for 18 days of production on TMTT. This schedule is certainly doable, but we will all be working crazy hours to get the film in the proverbial "can" (or as I like to say, "on the hard drive"). 
- Q: It looks like you plan to premiere the film at the Sundance Film Festival. I am not super familiar with the film festival scene but it's my understanding that this is a very popular/prestigious place to try to get films shown. Excuse the ignorance, but how hard is it to get a ...
  A: Hi Andrew, thanks for your question! It's a good one. Yes, Sundance is a very prestigious and competitive film festival, and there are definitely no guarantees on our acceptance into the festival. That said, we do have several key components working in our favor:  *We have great star talent attached to the film, and we are close to locking in another very exciting talent. We will make the announcement as soon as we can/it's official. *I am currently in a Sundance mentorship program ...
- Q: Hi, I invested and am contemplating doing more. Some questions: 1. Can you be more specific about your team member's roles in producing those examples listed - IMDb can be a little hard to decipher. Maybe just a few examples where someone had a significant role that matches th...
  A: Hi Alan, First of all, thanks for your investment in TMTT! It's great to have you on the team, and we promise to protect your investment and put it to good work! As far as matching roles are concerned, here are some recent examples: Kevin Harding is currently a producer on Wahlburgers, Clayton VanNortwick was an EIC (Executive In Charge of Production) on Ken Jeong's recent comedy special, and I was writer/director/producer on The Game VR. These are sign...
- Q: Hello. The operating agreement for your film's LLC, which has been submitted as part of Form C (document_7.pdf), is very blurry and unreadable. Can you please submit a version of the operating agreement that is clearer and more readable? Thank you.
  A: Hi Henry, Thanks for your question and interest in the film. The Wefunder team is looking into the issue you reported, but the SEC requires documents to be "scrubbed" in a certain way to be submitted with the filing (which makes it blurry). They're working on getting a less blurry version up on the portal. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I would be happy to answer them. Thanks!
- Q: Looks like the raise is oversubscribed, congratulations! Will there be an early close or will the max raise get increased?
  A: Hi Andrew, thank you! And thanks again for being one of our early investors and supporters! We are thrilled to have you on the team. Yes, I actually have a couple exciting updates planned for Monday; however, since you asked, one of the updates is that we have completed our financial review and will be raising the cap this week!
