I actually did a kickstarter campaign for the project a long time ago, but I think my kickstarter video could have been better and the campaign didn't reach its goal, so it wasn't funded. I may launch another kickstarter and try again at some point.
If you only need money to finish visual effects I'd say give Kickstarter another go. If you've got a decent edit of the movie ready you can use that to make a good video and even give backers access to the current version of the film when they pledge.
