Five heavy-metal musicians and their entourage move into a rural property for the weekend to work on their next album but conflicts among the members and the presence of an unwelcome intruder, not only put their album at risk but also their lives...
Our Mission
In aid of getting this feature film 'green-lit' we hope to garner the interest of prospective investors, distributors, cast and industry partners by raising the funds to shoot a live-action promo version of the animatic/video featured on this site above. The promo will clearly articulate the intended tone, feel and intended execution for the larger feature project. This has proven a successful technique adopted by many emerging and successful film makers.
Relying heavily on our existing networks and industry relationships we have made negotiations with crew and goods and service providers to reduce the required budget down from approx. $50,000 to $24,000. Many crew members believe strongly in this project and have already offered to provide their services for free, discounted or deferred fees. Rest assured, every penny of the $24,000 will be spent to create the promo with the exception of $500 to build the associated website for pitching purposes (www.lordofthecrows.com). With crew, cast, goods and services on standby, it's only the lack of funds that stands in our way.
