Hello everyone my name is Isai J. Martinez. I am currently a senior at Pacific Union College double majoring in History and Film with a Writing Emphasis.
Currently I am completing my thesis short film, Comeback, which is a very personal story for me. The story focuses on a male college K-Pop fan who is getting ready for a concert when a confrontation ensues with his toxic male roommate over his liking of K-Pop. The film talks about toxic masculinity, finding oneself, and being true to who you are.
Telling this story would be something unique and very fresh take on what the definition of what being oneself means and using one of the most popular types of music, Korean Pop music as a backdrop. Helping to tell this story and being able to share to underrepresented people would be a dream come true.
To tell you the truth; we need your help.
We are raising money to tell this story but with it come certain costs to make the film look amazing. We want to be able to pay our actors for gas and board, pay for meals for the cast and crew, and buy the supplies that are needed to make this film possible and looking the best it can be. We would like to also be able to provide great merch for everyone as well.
Each of the tiers have something special for everyone which include stickers, posters, shirts, a Thank You note, and the best part: LIMITED PHOTOCARDS of the fictional K-Pop group created for this film, AETHER.
This project started off a personal passion project which tells the story of my personal experience. Now more than ever with social media and pressure from peers, many people are unable to learn to be comfortable with oneself. With this film, the wish is to reach those who have not been able to see themselves represented and see that you can be who you are no matter the situation.
We have already started Pre-Production however, our biggest obstacle is being able to provide the proper food, board, and gas compensation for the actors.
There are many items that are needed like special lights, an original score, and other basic needs to be able to get all of our production running. With your help, this project will be able to give those things to the cast and crew which will be greatly appreciated.
All of the tiers are in prices for people to afford however, email at comebackfilm@outlook.com if you are interested in purchasing merch. however, tier packages will be prioritized and any extra-campaign merch purchases will be made to order.
Please if you could share with your friends and family to get the word. Share the link on your Facebook, Instagram, or even BeReal as well.
