...to everyone who made a donation on our Kickstarter site.  Our goal is to finish the film in digital form so that it can go to film festivals, and to HBO Europe afterwards. We have had some exciting interest from theatrical distributors too.  Your help green lights our film and makes the difference!

Our Kickstarter drive ended on March 5, 2013.  But as we continue to gather funds to do post-production, we invite you to pledge a gift to “Surviving in L.A.” and become part of our family.

Here are some of the outstanding rewards we are offering for your participation:

$10 - Hey, thank you! You are actually taking a movie from oblivion and putting it out there to be seen. That is huge. Our sincere thank you on our website and Facebook page.

$25 - You're a part of our team. We'd like to keep you informed about our progress through festivals, distribution, and awards with a subscription to Primitive Dog's digital newsletter which gives weekly progress of the film. Plus our big thank you!

$40 - You're first in line. You receive the first copy of the DVD of the completed movie. You will have the autograph of the director, plus all the above gifts, to say that you're part of the "Surviving in L.A." family.

$75 - Yes, we have a Primitive Dog T-shirt. The name of our company came from a small theater group and it stuck. We have some great T-shirts which are just a token of saying, you made a movie happen. Receive this as well as the above gifts.

$200 - Our CD original soundtrack of "Surviving in L.A." includes a host of unknown but amazingly talented L.A. singer-songwriters. You will love the music, I guarantee you, and beginning with this CD, you can follow their career. You receive the CD with this donation, as well as the above gifts.

$500 - This is an opportunity FOR YOU to participate creatively in the film process. If you are interested in editing, come help our editor for a day in post. Have your original song considered for the film. Have a day with the director working on the final cut. Meet the people behind the scenes and get YOUR FIRST SCREEN CREDIT doing what you want to do, depending on your skill set.

$1,000 - The producers of "Surviving in L.A." issue a special invitation to you to the film's premiere. AND come to the Awards with us, whatever we win! This film has powerful acting performances, it could be in the running for major film industry awards. It's funny and it's very dramatic, it could win a major nomination for Robert Walden or Valarie Pettiford or the rest of this gifted cast. Free tickets for you and a friend - be there and be part of film history. Join us and meet and greet the film's stars. This is our big moment and we want you there with us. This includes all the above gifts.
