Short Summary

             Hey there, I'm Juan and I'm hoping you can help support this project to save Art. Art, which short for Arthur, is my high school friend who has spent his whole life trying to please everyone else by doing what they always thought was best for him. Art like most people spent his whole life seeking the approval of his parents and lost sight of what makes him happy. Art has realized that he is unhappy with his stagnant life because his current job has no upward mobility and the field he majored in was forced on him. Art soon to be turning 25 has decided that for once in his life he is going to pursue something he wants to do for himself, which is to pursue music. Art has decided to start a band and pursue his dream of making music. This project revolves around his friends and all those willing to support him help Art fulfill his dream and document the whole journey. We believe that by documenting Art's journey we can help all the people, just like Art who feel stagnant and stuck in everyday life, find the courage to escape it. We feel that many people start on this path where they have to stick to the norm and play it safe in life never pursuing what they truly want because of their parents disapproval or it not being part of the so called plan. This project with the proper support can help Art find his inner peace again as well help inspire many others to do the same.

What We Need & What You Get

             We believe we can make this project possible if we reach the goal of $5,000 USD. The financial support given to us by this indie gogo campaign will be allocated to film equipment, transportation, recording sessions, venue promoters, and crew. We will be documenting Art's journey in his hometown of Los Angeles from now til the journey is complete. The funds will be used to help cover equipment rentals for the documentary aspect of the journey as well as covering the costs of Art's musical pursuit such as recording sessions, transportation to venues, and any funds needed to promote the bands shows. The ultimate goal of $5,000 would help fund both the LP and the documentary.

The Impact

               This project is about someone who is pursuing what they want and not letting anything get in the way of that whether it is their families disapproval, their dead end job, the pressure of real life, or the lack of security in the music industry. This project is about someone who is finally prioritizing their personal emotional health so they can finally escape the gloom of mundane life. All his life Art has done things for others so now we would love if his selflessness would be rewarded with peoples support. Every contribution given and every time you share this campaign with someone it is proof that people support those who choose to be bold and chase their passions. This project will hopefully inspire others to do the same and your support will fuel this movement.

Risks & Challenges

                We would absolutely love to reach our goal but if we do not, we will still use the support we receive towards funding the project. All support given to us will be greatly appreciated and put to good use. If our goal isn't reached we will simply have to reevaluate the project and see what is still possible.The only challenges we face to not reaching our goal would be if we our not able to reach enough people. The way to overcome this would be if every one who donates can share the campaign and those that are not able to donate can simply bring awareness to the project.

Other Ways You Can Help

                 We would love to emphasize that we understand not everyone can donate but that doesn't mean you can't support the campaign. Sharing the campaign on all social media and bringing awareness to the campaign is just as valuable and appreciated as the monetary contributions. Please share this campaign. Others ways people can help is by either helping with the filming or any resource that is at their disposal whether it be venues, recording spaces, practice spaces, transportation to venues, being a roadie, any words of encouragement, or breaking out of the norm by following your dream. email us at nonamers4all@gmail.com
