What We Need & What You Get
- We're asking for $1200 to feed our cast and crew, rent camera and lighting equipment, pay for the locations and submissions in film festivals.
- If we do not reach our goal we may have to scale back some of the more extensive lighting setups we envisioned for the film, but production will continue nonetheless!
- You will get all the perks we promised and knowledge of Indian rural culture and part of a project you will be proud of.
The Impact
We want to create a film that portrays the struggle of a mother for raising her child in good environment and how it effects all aspects of her life. If we have done our job correctly we hope everyone that watches the film relates to not only the struggles of these individuals but also their passion and motivations as well.
Risks & Challenges
- Most of our scenes are set at night which require large lighting setups. Being provided with enough money to rent proper lights, this wouldn't be an issue.
- In some scenes we have large setups and 20 to 30 extras required for getting best results. we need solid crew, if we have our desired budget we will deal with this issue.
