A GREAT STORY - In 1983, a group of High School students (A brain, an athlete, a basket case, a princess and a criminal) in a day of detention must run for their lives when a teacher in a wheel chair turns out to be an ex black ops soldier having a murderous flashback.
A GREAT CAST - Our widespread search for talented actors yielded a great cast. These actors, hailing from both Houston and Los Angeles, kicked total ass to bring our characters to life in a totally rad way!

OUR INVESTORS - “Getting Schooled” already has a great group of investors and teammates that believe deeply in this movie and have dug way down in their pockets to get us most of the way there.
The production needs you to help us by becoming an indiegogo backer to push us through completion of post-production.
A KILLER TEAM - “Getting Schooled” has an awesome core team whose members have proved that they can produce quality entertainment on an indie budget. Each member of the team is a great filmmaker in their own right.
EVERY DIME OF THE MONEY raised will go straight into post- production of “Getting Schooled” for things such as editing, color correction, Visual FX and Sound editing and mixing.
A WORD FROM FROM THE DIRECTOR
I have as a director a very distinct vision for my next feature film “Getting Schooled”.
Overall feel: I see “Getting Schooled” as an homage to both the 80s Horror/Slasher film genre, (Friday the 13th, Halloween, My Bloody Valentine, Night of the Comet) high in gore and tension, and the coming of age films of the 1980s (The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Fast Times at Ridgemont High) with their internal and external struggles of teens. With that foundation in place we have injected modern horror and comic elements/sensibilities to give “Getting Schooled” a fresh and hip feel.
Design: We used a very vibrant color pallet to create the environment and wardrobe for “Getting Schooled”. The bright colors of the 80s (neon pinks, oranges and greens) were a great background to splash with death, guts and destruction. Set design brought the 1980s to life. Colorful, cool and quirky. Sometimes used to great ironic and comic effect.
Visual aesthetic: It was very important to have a very high quality HD image, that is why we used the RED Scarlet Camera to shoot “Getting Schooled.” We will pull the post-production color palette from horror films from the 80s with all their grit, grain and great colors.
Cameras will flow and scenes will cut smoothly during times of the main group’s interaction but will be shot and cut in a fast and sometimes chaotic/shocking manner during fight or kill scenes.
Director, Chuck Norfolk
