Short Summary
Hey There! I’m Eddie “Pull” Frente from the bands kHz and 3388. After spending many years in the music business I finally took the time out to pursue my other passion: Filmmaking. After creating a few projects on my own, I was fortunate to attract the attention of some Hollywood insiders, and one of my scripts was being considered for production. I knew this was going to take many months, possibly years, and didn’t want to waste any time waiting for it to happen. I contemplated, "How could I make a film by myself, and not have to wait for someone else to approve it?" So I wrote a script that I knew I could execute completely alone, with no outside investors.
Once the filming was complete I realized I would not be able to share it with the public or the fans that have been so supportive of myself, kHz and Raiana, since the insiders need to see it first and decide on what can happen next with the film. That’s where this campaign comes in! By contributing to the film it provides me a way to share it with you privately since you are now a part of the process. I have come up with a few fun incentives for you to check out.
What We Need & What You Get
This is what I decided to do: I set a small goal to make it possible for everyone to be included. The $1,000 dollars I am raising will go toward helping me prepare some of the incentives for you, making sure they are delivered in high quality and quickly! This includes a way for you to see the film online as well as other film projects I have created and that have not been made public yet! Any money raised over that amount will help me with a few of the finishing costs (including the screening in NYC) and to help ease the time needed to finish the film at it’s highest quality. Since there are no outside investors and I have paid for it all myself, any extra money raised will help me in post production to make it the best possible product.
The Impact
My main goal for this campaign was to find a way to share it with you long before it can be made public. Each contributor that get’s involved will be able to go through this experience with us, which is really what it’s all about, sharing the journey.
Risks & Challenges
When I say I did this alone, I don’t just mean without investors. I wrote, shot, directed, edited, scored, produced and created the visual effects for the film alone. I had only one crew member and she did everything she could do to bounce from job to job to help make this happen. It has been almost a two-year journey and as fun as it has been, it honestly has been scary and at times I wasn’t sure I could pull it off. There still is more work to be done, but sharing it with you gives me more energy to cross that finish line!
Other Ways You Can Help
If you are not able to contribute by purchasing an incentive, just passing the word around and using the share links is just as appreciated! Those of you already here who know us from kHz and 3388, this is a great time to share with new fans since the incentives gives them a chance to get caught up on everything we’ve released!
