Short Summary
My name is Eli Silverman, I am a aspiring Photographer and Filmmaker based in New York, NY.
My most recent project is called "One Up". It is a tale of Mario and Luigi; they face their brotherly challenges as Luigi turns to the "feds" to help them capture his vigilante brother, Mario.
With your help, you can get yourself awards for your contribution and also help out a group of rising filmmakers. Anything helps us! This is considered a student film and we are working outside of traditional studios so we need your help raising funds!
What We Need & What You Get
We need your help. No matter what it is we could always use it. If you want to get more involved feel free to contact me and we can get you involved.
If you just want to donate for the rewards that is fine too! We need about $1000 total to get this project fully funded. You can donate for rewards such as: T-Shirt, A poster signed by the cast, an early release DVD, and even an on-set VIP pass.
When you donate, the funds go directly to support for the film. Nothing is taken away from that. It goes towards renting lighting equipment to paying for our cast and crew.

A Short Description of our project
"One Up" is about Mario and Luigi (yes, the ones you’re thinking of) as they face their own inner struggles and brotherly challenges. Luigi is an ex-con turned cop who finds himself interrogating his brother for crimes against the state. Mario somehow manages to escape resulting in a heart-pounding, fireball-filled chase that ends in a mano a mano fight between brothers. Is family stronger than the law? Or Goombas? Or Bowser!?
