Help Monster-Munch Make A Movie!
I know. At first glance that seems kind of coo coo. And maybe it is, but, how much fun would that be ? Cookie and i have a dream to make a documentary about New Zealand. And to do it we’re going to walk from the nothern tip aaaaaaaall the way down to the southern tip. Mental eh ? Yes! We are hoping to do it in about a years time. To help us save up the funds to get there and pay for equipment, and porridge to eat on the road we looking for people to sponsor us. It’s a bit of a challenge! We’ll be camping wild so there’d be no luxuries on this trip. But every penny counts when it comes to making the DVD’s etc as when we get back we’ll be penniless :)
SO! If you’d like to see the documentary of a boy and girl struggling against the elements ( and their will power ) to quite literally walk to Mordor in a Frodo stylie then your luck is in! If you’d like a DVD or want to help us then read all about it here and you can Donate a small amount if you wish towards to costs of the film. Thanks so much Monster-Munch followers! And if we raise the monies you will of course hear all about the trip live here on Monster-Munch :D
Help us :)
Kickstarter are kindly helping us with a donations page - but we only get paid if we raise the whole amount! So we have only less than 90 days to see if we can…. You know we love you! ;) xx Nicky & Cookie
Get cool stuff made by us
Kind sponsors will receive a selection of things designed and made my me and Cookie ( of Made-In-England.org ) including the DVD, Specially designed A2 Posters, route planners and the right to give us very special challenges to complete on route! Read all about the Pledge Prizes here.
As some of you know, the other special thing about this trip for me is that i’m not, lets say, the most athletic person in the world ;) So this is going to be a mission and a half to say the least! And more than a mountain to climb. In fact you might know that a little while back a was rather ill, and to even dream of something like this would have been unimaginable. So in a way, that’s something that’s spurring me on to try and confront and conquer the impossible :) It might be a bit crazy but i’m damn well going to give it my best! Thanks for listening Monster-Munchers. x

Good luck with your project! Your video is great. Kickstarter is such a great way to start up any project.
I’ve been using kickstarter for my own career jump start.
I’d love for you to take a look:

i remember hearing about a girl who did that not too long ago (http://emmadaken.blogspot.com/), but it would be pretty awesome to film it as new zealand does have some stunning scenery. if you need a place to crash in palmerston north, let me know :)

Best of luck to you and Cookie. I spent 3 weeks at the Sir Edmund Hillary Outdoor Pursuits Centre a couple years back, and I got to see Mt. Doom every day from my window! You’ll have an amazing time, because New Zealand is the most amazing place on Earth. I’ll definitely be throwing some help your way!

Hey James :) We didn’t actually reach our target in the end and so we didn’t get the funding. But good news is that the saving is going well and we’re still on for the trip this autumn! Should be an amazing journey :D Can’t wait!
We’ll be updating our blogs as we go so you can see what we’re upto and track our progress. Hopefully we’ll get some nice shots.
