What We Need
To make this film a reality, we need (good) production resources and with quality comes a price. As a group, we are contributing (both physically and financially) to our film but we are not super human beings and there's only so much that the 3 of us can do. The team we have assembled to assist us is awesome and we believe the results will show in the finished film. Below is a summary of our budget and the related costs with the resources we need.

What You Get
Every cent counts to helping us achieve our dream of making this film. Your contribution, however big or small, deserves our utmost gratitude and thanks :) To thank you for your contribution, we have prepared some rewards (listed on the right) specially for you! The rewards range from a shout out on our facebook page, to a copy of the film to the specially composed soundtrack to exclusive behind the scenes photos of our production.
The Impact
Through this film, we hope to re-inject the magic of human contact or the human touch. Too many a times, we are too fast to judge other people based on how they look and where they are from. The people we meet become our social capital; my time is given to you only when you are useful to me. Essentially, we are robbing ourselves of an opportunity to learn about what others have to offer to us. It could be a memory that is reminiscent of our own, a remark that sparks an inspiration, the discovery of something that we never knew we had inside of us or simply the joy of listening to the stories of others. In the eagerness to achieve our own goals, the process is forgotten. We hope that our short film will inspire people to open their hearts and minds to others who are different from ourselves; every person we meet has something to share, only if we are willing to listen.

Final words
Nothing is ever too small; therefore your help and contribution means a huge deal to us and of course, our gratitude and thanks to you is immense as well :) A student short film project might just seem like any other student project/assignment/test etc but we view it to be much more than that. With your help, we could make this film into something bigger, entering competitions and film festivals and who knows what the future might hold :)
