Hey Folks!
Like Hillary and Barak before us, we here at Nerdcore Rising find ourselves in the midst of a fierce primary struggle. As you might already know from Wolf Blitzer’s "We Report, You Decide" coverage on CNN, Nerdcore Rising is running for President of the From Here to Awesome Discovery & Distribution Festival!
What do we win if we win? That’s a good question. We would win different types of distribution deals on multiple platforms, screenings in various cities around the country, free marketing/promotion from fancy big name outlets, and we would win the right to preside as President Pro-tempore of the US Senate. Basically, winning would be really really terribly awesome and it would make it more likely for the movie to come to a theatre near you. Like actually near you.
But we need your help. The schtick behind "From Here to Awesome" is that audiences actually help curate the festival. i.e. we report (what films are in the running) and you decide (what films make it to the top ten). FHTA has created an elaborate algorithm that involves, your "awesome vote" on the FHTA website, our youtube hit stats, our youtube subscriber stats, our myspace subscriber stats, our Twitter follow stats, the number of comments our videos get, and the square root of Avogadro’s Number.
WHAT DO WE WANT FROM YOU?

IF YOU’RE FEELING EXTRA FRISKY/DEMOCRATIC:
*Please register to FHTA so you can vote "awesome" on the button below our vid (before June 6):
Register to From Here to Awesome
IF YOU’RE FEELING RIDICULOUSLY CIVIC & OBSENELY ELECTORAL:
*Please subscribe to our youtube channel, our myspace blog, our twitter account, our facebook group, and comment your face off wherever you can (before June 6):
- Our youtube channel
- Our Myspace Page
- Our Twitter Page
- Subscribe to our website blog via RSS
- Joint our Facebook group
If our fanbase proves to be more hardcore than the other fanbases, then we get into the Top Ten and become an official selection of FROM HERE TO AWESOME. The result will be: more screenings, more distribution, and utopia.
Please help!!!!
Love & Vote-Begging,
