Some dude on Twitter is saying that 15 (of the approximately 105 thus far) announced SXSW feature films used Kickstarter funding

I don't know his sourcing, or how much each filmed used Kickstarter (10% of funding, 100% of funding) but it's definitely an interesting trend.

I've already noticed several of the accepted film utilizing Kickstarter post-announcement for funds to complete the film for showing (color correction, score, festival promotional material)

      - it was but a generic comment not actually intended as a specific critique of you nor anyone living or imaginary - zeitgeist Feb 7, 17:06
      - Plus most of the time all you're really doing is buying the DVD. You're just buying it before the movie is made. -- nm - Dano Feb 7, 16:34
