Movie Moths

Thank you for supporting Movie Moths which was 1 of 20 projects participating in Pintopia 2023 ⚡️ Thanks to your support 100% of the projects were fully funded, so you'll be getting a FREE Pintopia 2023 pin from BackerKit shipped separately. Cool!

Again, thanks for your support and stay tuned for more information soon.

There's only 1 week left to support the 20 creators participating in Pintopia by BackerKit. I hope y'all have backed some other participating projects as there are some truly amazing pin designs out there. And remember, the more projects you back, the more FREE pins you can earn. These include cool Pintopia themed badge pins AND some truly epic cross-collab pins between fellow Pintopia creators.

Speaking of FREE pins, I wanted to share the pin you will earn when you support 3+ Pintopia projects — it's called the "Pipe Weed Moth" pin and it's inspired by the moth featured in The Lord of the Rings films accompanied by a wreath of Gandalf's favorite herb 🌿

Pipe Weed Moth a collaboration between my wife Katie Bacigalupi and I who is also running a Pintopia project of her own called History of Floral Fads. It's her very first crowdfunding campaign and it would mean a lot if you extended your support to her project as well ❤️

If you do decide to support 3+ pins to complete your Movie Moths pin collection, make sure one of them is History of Floral Fads by Katie Bacigalupi.

And lastly, I'm happy to report that ALL Pintopia projects are 100% fully funded 🥳 This is a huge deal and truly could not have happened without all you wonderful backers. Thank you so much for showing up and showing your support to myself and these amazing creators.

Now what are you waiting for? Go support History of Floral Fads by Katie Bacigalupi 🌸

I see you 👁👁 I knew I could find some fellow cinephiles with a deep adoration for moths featured in movies. Welcome!

First off...wow! I am beyond stoked that Movie Moths got 100% funded in just a few hours. It's actually been a low key dream of mine to create an enamel pin based off Mothman. Initially this was just going to be a straight up single pin Mothman campaign. But the more I thought about how creepy the movie The Mothman Prophecies (2002) is the more I started thinking about other movie moths. Of course my next inspiration was The Silence of the Lambs (1991) and then soon after Godzilla vs Mothra (1964). Three makes a set! The rest was history.

But what I am really truly here to say is THANK YOU! Thank you to all 100+ of you that supported this project on day 1. It means the world to me. And we still have 3 weeks to go so if you know of any other moth enthusiasts, you know where to point them!

I also just wanted to say how proud I am of each and every creator participating in Pintopia by BackerKit. Myself and the BackerKit team have been hard at work organizing this crowdfunding event for a few months now and I am beyond pleased to see it all launch today.

As few things that will be a little different compared to other crowdfunding projects you have backed include: no stretch goals, no add-ons during the campaign window, and each Pintopia project only has 1-3 pins on offer allowing for a smaller funding goal. And what I'm most excited about are the platform incentives from BackerKit. The more pins you back from different creators, the more FREE pins you will earn. And we have a slew of amazing pins available to unlock.

And there may just be another Movie Moth (Inspired by The Lord of the Rings movie franchise) flying around for those that back 3+ Pintopia projects. It was made in collaboration with my wife Katie Bacigalupi who is running the Pintopia project History of Floral Fads (CHECK IT OUT).

Stay tuned, more fun updates and Pintopia announcements in the coming days...
