In the vein of Dogtown and Z-Boys, Bleed Into One chronicles the underdog nature of a genre of music that truly had to battle its way towards acceptance, a battle against a world who did not understand their faith, and a battle against those of faith who did not understand their music.

This campaign seeks to raise $60,000.

Thirty thousand dollars of the campaign will be used to pay the required licensing fees will be paid to secure an unmatched soundtrack for the film, featuring a vast array of artists covering the entire scope of the genre. The second $30,000 will be used for the final stages of the post-production, final editing and animation.

A series of incentives have been created as a thank you for donations, everything from digital downloads of the film, autographs, t-shirts, producer credits and tickets to screenings.

Bleed Into One will be an uncompromising, controversial view of the history and people of Christian Rock. The narrative will primarily be told through interviews, archival footage, music video and live performance. Not shying away from criticism of the genre, Bleed Into One will feature honest summations of pundits, critics and offer a variety of pop culture references on the subject including but not limited to "South Park", "The Simpsons", "Rolling Stone," "Saved," "Alternative Press," "King of the Hill," and comments from comedians and other detractors. Additionally, the film will feature website chatter, VH1 and MTV references.
