Pitch CampaignSalvage Run
Finders keepers, out here
by Anvil & Ash · Launched Jul 4, 2026
Past the 50-backer floor for a Pitch
Back this at one of three levels. Nothing is charged now. Pledges are only collected if the campaign reaches $1,200, which is 60% of its ask, and 50 backers, and you can change or withdraw yours until then.
You are backing a stage for perks, coins and early access. You are not buying a share of the title or any financial interest in it.
A pledge is a promise to back a campaign, not a payment and not a purchase of any financial interest. Nothing is charged unless the campaign is collected, and every campaign is approved before it opens. Full disclaimer
About this title
Synopsis
Salvage law is the last clean law anywhere. A wreck with no claim on it belongs to whoever reaches it, files first and can prove they were there. The Ostrow brothers have made eleven years of a living out of that sentence. The Kestrel has been drifting eighteen months, is on no registry, and answers nothing. They file at 0600 and board at 0730. On the second deck there is a woman in a suit with four hours of air left, and a wreck with a living crew is not a wreck.
Who this is about
The Ostrow brothers make a living on unclaimed wrecks, where the law is clear, the paperwork is short and the money is entirely legal.
What goes wrong
The wreck they have just claimed has a survivor in it, which means it is not salvage.
What's at stake
Reporting her forfeits the claim, and the claim is eleven months of debt.
Why it keeps going
Each episode she tells them one more thing about what the ship was carrying.
Takeaway
The rule that made you honest was only ever convenient.

Where your money goes
Your money goes straight to the creator to turn this pitch into a trailer. A pitch today is a poster and a logline. What the money buys is the first piece of film anyone will see.
Nothing is collected until two things are true
This campaign has to raise $1,200, which is 60% of its ask, and reach 50 backers. Whichever of the two happens later is the one that counts. Money without backers is one person, and backers without money is a crowd that cannot fund the thing, so a Pitch campaign needs both.
