I MAKE MOVIES. PLEASE HELP ME.
<p>Husband, Father and all around nice guy I live in Gardena Ca. with my wife Kristal and my daughter Mya.<br /><br />This PITY PARTY campaign is launched to help get my second feature up and running.</p> <p>My last feature, Running from WISHconsin was financed with money I recieved from my Father's life insurance policy. My Father battled CANCER twice and lost the second round. We knew it was coming. My Wife, daughter and I were in the hospital room when the doctor came in and told my tough as nails, ex MARINEDad that he WAS going to die...in 'about ten days.'</p> <p>It was then that my Father told me that, thanks to my Mother who had died four years ealier, there was a life insurance policy and that I would receive 'X'amount of money and not the 'F' it away. Do something important. Without a beat I told him I'd make my first movie. I promised him. I spent two month writting and visiting with my dad, explaining all the intrecet details of my story etc.</p> <p>My Dad was told he was going to die in ten days and that was December of 2007. He died February 12th, 2008. I like to think my visits and updates about my movie may have played a small part, in some way, that allowed him to make it those two months. Running from WISHconsin, as of this writing, is about a month away from finsihing post production thanks to my Dad, my Mother in law, good freind, Wife and amazing actors and crew.</p> <p>I love making movies. I love that it's hard. I love that it's collaborative. I good at it and in these hard times, like many of my fellow film makers, I need help. I've been unemployed for over 14 months. I haven't had a full time job in over TWO YEARS!!</p> <p><strong>In funding my project, you'll be helping someone who doesn't know the meaning of QUIT.</strong> <em>I commit to something, IT GET'S DONE!!</em> I know talent, both in actors and crew and I treat them all with respect.</p> <p><br />I have to make movies. I have to create and exspress myself. If you know how I feel and have been, or are in my shoes, you 'get it.' Please share the pitch video. Tell a friend about the movie and about the Director who will make the movie happen no matter what.</p> <p><em><strong>I NEED YOUR HELP TO SPEREAD THE WORD!!</strong></em></p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p>Don Walker</p>
