For Your Consideration: The Mountain Man Communique

After a few long nights of envelope stuffing, paper cuts and some likely harmful spray paint inhalation, here it is. Unintentionally controversial Mountain Man For Your Consideration Communique is ready to ship! When it came time to conceptualize our FYC campaign, we knew we wanted to make a mark on the IAWTV. Sure, we made a web show, and it would make sense to stick with a web campaign, but so much of what makes Mountain Man special is the real world, tactility of everything in Jonas’ world.* We decided to play to our strengths, and do some Mountain Man style DIY packaging. As I said before, this packet is from the Mountain Man world, and should exemplify why we deserve your Streamy nominations. For the uninitiated, the packet serves as an introduction to the world of Jonas. Fans will be pleased to find unique, as-yet-unrevealed external details about Jonas’ story. Overall, the packet should leave you with a sense of detail and the fleshed out world that makes Mountain Man so special.

The Communique includes:

• A hand stamped communique from the (fictionalized) bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms, documenting all of Jonas Hawkinus’ (the Mountain Man) exploits.
• A hand stenciled FYC screener DVD with a sizzle reel, the first four episodes of the series, and a slideshow (backed by the hit single “The Duffel Bag Shuffle”)
• A dossier containing:
• A mug shot (in case you’re tracking the Mountain Man on your own)
• A FYC post card and photos of the man himself (illustrating our design and Jonas’ lair, the Sanctuary)
• A piece of the alarm system Jonas has rigged in the forest.
• A DNA specimen from Jonas – a clump of his beard!
• A vintage newspaper clipping chronicling the initial disappearance of our hero.
• A hand written note from Producer (Matt Enlow) and Director (Matt Mangs) to you!

If you would like to make sure you get a copy of a screener, please e-mail your address to Contact@watchMountainMan.com and be sure to remember us during your nominations.
