JESSE'S GIFT 

Based on true events, Jesse's Gift is a story about a struggling musician, on the brink of losing everything,  finds new hope in a gift from his dying father.

Who We Are  

  • We are a group of passionate, independent student filmmakers, looking to tell a story about loss, hope, and the perseverance of the human spirt.
  • Our campaign is an effort to find an audience that wants to invest and enjoy the work of local artists. Donations will be used  to secure equipment, locations, and talent -- ensuring that we can produce a product of the highest quality. 
  • Our project contains original music written and performed by the artist.
  • Jesse’s Gift offers a genuine message that we believe will inspire everyone to follow their dreams at all costs.

What We Need & What You Get

  • Our target goal is to raise $2,000 for production costs. This will help us rent cameras (along with the various lenses), sound equipment, secure locations, and of course, food to feed our our cast and crew.  
  • Some of the exciting perks for contributors are:
  1. All donors receive a link to the film. 
  2. Your name in the credits.
  3. Custom guitar pick.
  4. MP3/CD containing the original soundtrack.
  5. Poster signed by the cast and crew. 
  6. Version of film containing commentary from cast and crew. 
  7. Acoustic guitar signed by the cast and crew.

 

Risks & Challenges

  • We can solve these challenges by having a diverse group of filmmakers that have worked on many types of productions, such as Captain America: Civil War, Plan B, Why Doesn't She Leave, and The Tomorrow War.
