Will there be stories beyond this pilot?
Most certainly! We are planning a multi-season story arc for our abducted Manhattanites! Not only will the story be broad and all-encompassing, but the individual characters will go through their own story arcs as well.

Is there a way to be more financially involved in Manhattan Transfer?
Yes, we are going to do equity funding through WeFunder. This means you are investing in our project (not just pledging for a reward) and you could get returns and profit on your investment! More details soon!

This is an impressive cast. Some projects, though, list a "wish-list" of actors, not ones who are actually part of the production. Are these all really part of your cast?
Absolutely! Each one of these incredible actors are fully signed on to the project and are really excited about getting the production started!

When can we expect our items to be shipped?
For the Abductee Care Package add-on, we will ship in around 60 days.
For the behind-the-scenes photos and videos, live streams and other rewards (visit the set, walk-on roles, etc.), those will be available during our principal photography (TBA, probably fall)
For all other rewards (DVDs, photos, etc), they will be available when the project is completed (TBA, next spring)

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
