A New Age of Indie Filmmaking

Here at 3 Keys Media, we take our craft of filmmaking seriously; with a common goal to always grow and improve on every single film endeavor we take. We pride ourselves on ALWAYS finishing our films, and delivering perks to our backers that they are owed; before we take on another campaign or filmmaking effort. 

• For ISLEEN PINES, the ambition is being cranked up a few notches. Whether it's the Costumes, Practical FX/Gore, Locations, Puppets/Monsters; This film is a fast paced Horror/Sci-Fi nightmare taking place on Halloween.
• Co-Writer/Director Alexys Paonessa has already been hard at work on a number of elements in the FX department to get a head start. Sometimes you gotta invest your own resources if you truly believe in what you're makin'!

What We Need & What You Get

The Impact

It's time to change Halloween Horror...

• Isleen Pines is a trip down horror halloween memory lane. A story about friendship, camaraderie, and how much you're willing to fight to survive when tradition doesn't quite go as planned. Like any party, there is a good dose of fun, but not once will it ever be undercut for lack of stakes.
• In the first 20 minutes, we have a gag and kill that without going into too much detail, is absolutely insane... and very fun for the squeamish..
• If you can help us reach our goal, We can guarantee Isleen Pines will be that original Halloween film you've always wanted on your shelf.

Risks & Challenges

Like every project, there are hurdles and challenges in making an independent feature film from the ground up. It takes a village!

• Financial responsibility, and the realism of producing a movie at an efficient rate. A lot of IndieGoGo films get financed and are not seen or updated to their backers, for sometimes very long periods of time. Vague answers are given about the film "being with a studio/distributor"; yet no definitive concrete information about when the folks who actually funded the movie will get to watch it.
• At 3 Keys Media, we cover everything in film. From Concept to Distribution, if you want something done, sometimes you have to learn how to do it yourself. We write, budget, produce, crew others films as well as our own; giving us many invaluable experiences to grow with and bring to every project we are on. We are always learning and growing with the constantly changing industry.
• Past that, we cover all of Post Production, with experience in Post Audio houses, we understand deliverables/Quality Control, and we don't mess around. Our movies pass QC.
• If you want to be part of a team that finishes their films, and strives for quality; 3 Keys Media is for you.
