To mark the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, Flip the Switch Media has started a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for the production of a documentary celebrating the passionate fans of the science fiction program.
The Kickstarter campaign offers Doctor Who fans the opportunity to donate to the project at many different levels of financial commitment, starting as low as £1 and ranging up to £1,000. Rewards are given to donors at all levels with, of course, more benefits going to those who contribute more to the project.
Here is what FTS Media has to say about the documentary…
Where other documentaries have lingered on the negative side of fandom, we want to celebrate the passion that lies within fans of Doctor Who, exploring the Whovian world and how the passion of the fans has kept the show alive. We’ll explore how Doctor Who fans have incorporated their devotion into everyday life, from writing blogs and books, to those who make it their mission to collect every TARDIS Teapot, Dalek Duvet and Cyberman Clock!
It’s these things that we want to explore, because without these passionate fans, Doctor Who wouldn’t be back on our screens for it’s 50th anniversary celebration!
And here is the teaser trailer for the documentary…
Finally, here is a preview of FTS Media’s interview with Robert Shearman, writer of several Big Finish Doctor Who audio adventures and the 2005 television series episode, “Dalek”…
