It’s been a great year for even name-brand filmmakers to tap Kickstarter and its crowd-funding competitors to help get their films made. Strickler rattled off a few: Spike Lee, Zach Braff and the Veronica Mars duo of Rob Thomas and Kristen Bell. Have you contributed to a Kickstarter campaign or even used it to finance a film, other product or idea? Did you like the process and resulting product? Let us know what you think.
