They've started a Patreon, but the main reward so far seems to be live drawing session, which is extra side work and they specifically say they'll always prioritize actual animation projects first.
Why not use Patreon to instead give a behind-the-scenes look at animation production? It seems like that'll be way more interesting and not distract the staff from their main projects as much.

I'm not sure they would do that as they've already released something like that for the original LWA film.
@Evamonkey: Is there a deadline to submit these questions? When would you like them by?

Probably by the end of the day. As far as I know, press interviews have not been scheduled. Or at least, my requests have not been acted upon, which is pretty late, given that today is day 0, badge pickup, and maybe some matsuri events. There is a Trigger press conference on Sunday, where I may also ask questions, but preferably today,
