Nail House

We did it!! 🎉

Thanks, everyone - today we hit $364K, making Nail House the #1 funded film project on BackerKit of all time.
That’s absolutely wild. We’re so grateful to every single one of you for helping us make this possible.

🎬 The Big News: Page-Turn Day
Yesterday was our Page-Turn - a full script review with every department head, from production to props.
10 AM to 5 PM. A LONG meeting.

If you’ve never heard of a page-turn, the name more or less gives it away. Everyone sits down and goes through the script one page at a time, asking every possible question related to their department. We do our best to answer them all, and by the end, we have way more questions than we started out with. That’s filmmaking, baby.



Congrats to Cindy, who scored the second Steamer Basket! It’ll be added to your pledge!

🍶 Today’s Prop Drop: DOUBLE GIVEAWAY - The Condiment Trays!

Today we’ve got two prop trays up for grabs! These condiment trays are straight from Mama Wong’s tables - perfect for soy sauce, chili oil, or… whatever else your heart desires.

Just the trays, though - you’ll have to supply your own delicious condiments.

For your chance to win one of the condiment trays: Tell us what you’d put in the condiment tray.
It doesn’t have to be condiments. Get creative. We’ll pick two winners in tomorrow’s update!

 We’ve officially surpassed $350K - thanks to all 3,600+ of you incredible backers for continuing to push this campaign higher every day!

🎬 Backer Exclusive Screenings & Panels

Let’s talk about one of the most exciting perks of this campaign: the Backer Exclusive Screenings and Panels!

We’ll be hosting two events - one digital and one physical - to screen Nail House exclusively for backers of this campaign. You’ll be among the very first people in the world to see the finished film, followed by a live Q&A and meet & greet with the cast and crew.

 The physical screening will take place in Los Angeles - exact location TBD - while our digital event will make sure fans worldwide can join in the celebration.
