As you may know, I chose to release this project independently. I personally financed the production, recording, mixing, mastering, videos, photos, and more for Cherry Red Apocalypse.
With your support, alongside my own investment, this crowdfunding will allow me to expand this apocalyptic universe even further, and create new experiences for you beyond the album.
I’m also personally investing in this project, contributing to the live show production and fully supporting the creation of the deluxe album.
If we reach the goal, we will bring this vision to life in a professional film studio in Germany, capturing and immortalizing this unique performance.
The raw audio from the show will be sent to Jacob Hansen for mixing, ensuring a powerful and high-quality live album. The full performance will then be released later this year on YouTube.
For this special event, I’ll be joined by a group of incredibly talented musicians to bring Cherry Red Apocalypse to life on stage.
The goal: EUR 25'000.-
+ personal investment
Your support will directly contribute to bringing this project to life at the highest quality level, covering:
• Professional video production: filming and editing the cinematic live performance
• Audio production: recording, mixing, and mastering the live album
• CD & vinyl pressing: bringing the music into a physical, collectible format
• Musicians: the talented artists performing this show with me
• Gear & technical setup: everything needed to achieve a powerful live production
• Stage design & props: creating the visual world of Cherry Red Apocalypse
• Travel expenses: making the entire production possible logistically
• Your perks: the creation, packing, shipping and taxes connected to the perks of this campaign
Every contribution goes directly into crafting an immersive, high-quality experience, both visually and sonically.
Stretch goal: EUR 43'000.-
+ personal investment
Should we surpass the initial goal and reach the stretch goal of EUR 43'000.-, the show will be available on Blu-ray and will be included in some of the perks.
This will cover all the points mentioned above as well as:
• Blu-ray production: authoring, encoding, and pressing the physical media
• Licensing: securing the rights required to legally produce and distribute the Blu-ray
• Artwork creation: designing the visual identity of the Blu-ray edition
• Menu design: crafting an immersive and intuitive viewing experience
• Additional perks: the creation, packing, shipping and taxes connected to the perks of this campaign
I’ve created a range of exclusive perks including unique merch items connected to the live performance and the album. The artworks and designs will be finalised after the filming is done as I will use some of the material captured during the recording of the show to create some or all of those.
I truly hope you’ll find something you love and become a part of this adventure.
From the Apocalypse with love,
Melissa
