Short Summary

Heating and Air  technicians are professionally trained to persuade clients to purchase expensive heating and cooling systems. Production from these salesmen in uniforms is paramount and the commissions made on these sales are high. The pressure to sell can be overwhelming and create tension and even hostility within a busy HVAC company.

This film will tell the story of Eric who becomes addicted to not only the financial rewards but the adrenaline rush he gets from making the sale. Mandy's unconditional love for Eric will play a critical role in the redemption of his soul.

I want to tell the story of a young man's experience in the greedy sales driven HVAC Industry.  I have extensive experience in that field, and want to bring the "nitty gritty" of successful salesmen and women to the forefront.

This campaign will fund the cost to produce the trailer for the Feature film.  I will use this trailer to help further my project in the Film Industry.

The funding I get from this campaign will go directly to the trailer's completion.  I need everyone's contribution, no matter how big or how small, to help make my dream a reality.

 

What We Need & What You Get

I am seeking $2,000 for this project.  The money will be used to help offset my cost for the ability to use SAG actors, as well as to get the most professional final product I can.

As for the "swag" (perks), please look at the detailed information in the sidebar.

This film will be completed even if I don't reach my goal, so please consider contributing, who knows, you may see this film in the "OSCARS" someday.

 

The Impact 

This film will help bring that reality to the forefront, allowing the viewer to see the character arc / heros jouney that Eric experiences in this film.

 

Your contribution will help me get this film produced,
