The entire endeavor has been in the DIY spirit of what Whedon has been attempting to do since releasing Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog online in 2008: cut down the distance between the artist and the audience. “What’s been super about this project in particular is calling home to my mother and saying, like, ‘I’m getting to play in the sandbox. This is more of what I came out here to do,’” said Roiff. “Usually, there are so many layers of people saying, ‘No, you can’t do that.’ It’s so cool to have people write back and say, ‘This is awesome!’” He laughs. “It’s been a lot of fun.”
Of course, the media attention this has received is just an added bonus. This article includes pictures and tweets from people around the world to show how people have been sharing their interest in this phenomenon. Of course, not many Kickstarter project creators can afford to shower their fans with random gifts. What do you guys think about this? Have you heard of people doing this type of thing before?
