WHY MAKE THIS FILM:

Hello my name is M. Legend Brown (Writer, Producer, Director) I wanted to make "A Man Called Jon” a film that would make us laugh in a time when there is so much confusion between races. This film shines a light on both races to show that our differences are what make us unique. AMCJ is our third feature film, our first two have gone on to win numerous awards and has been screened in over 40 film festivals. Our first feature film "Hiding in Plain Sight" debuted on Daystar TV.

King & Brown Enterprises, Poorchild Films, Higher Heights Filmworks and Reda Jo Films feel this is a great time to release another family friendly film that the whole family can enjoy.

Sometimes being different is when God uses you the most.


Synopsis:

A Man Called Jon is a light-hearted dramedy about Pastor Jon Terrell Carson’s unusual style of worship. Jon’s church is very traditional and is not accustomed to outbursts during service. One day, after embarrassing the church along with his family, senior pastor Stannum decides to reach out to the Bishop requesting that Jon be assigned to a church more suited to his style of praise.

Jon and his family find themselves at an African American church, where he is confronted by associate pastor Gerald Dickens, who later informs him that he was sent to the wrong church due to a mix-up in paperwork. Jon is moved to his third church where he again struggles to fit in.

Will Jon be able to control his celebration or will he be moved for a fourth time?

HOW YOU CAN HELP:

I am asking you to partner with us in raising 30,000 to complete this amazing film. We were able to hire actors, crew, and secure locations and by the grace of God we were able to complete principle photography in ten days. Now, we need to hire an editor, composer, colorist, sound designer and purchase music for the film. We are schedule to release the film in August once we meet our goal.

Our goal is to raise 20,000 dollars in one dollar ($1.00) donations. if every person that views our page will at least donate one dollar and then encourage ten of your friends to do the same. We could reach our goal in record time.

Another way you can help us complete our goal is through preordering we would  need to have 3000 DVD’s preordered. We are asking that you purchases two (2) copies of the film…One to keep and one to pay it forward. This will not only help us reach and exceed our goal but start a movement for change.
