Our Story
In
our industry (as with many others), we have found it a necessity to
consistently work long hours in order to just get by with our lives. Breaking
away from that in order to make a passion-project is risky, but because of our
passion for this project, it is a risk we are willing to take.
Shit-Show has been in development for the past 3 years and now our team finally feels that is is 100% prepped and ready for financing. Many of us latched onto the script long ago but took our time working on
other projects in order to refine our skills so that Shit-Show could be the fully-realized radical vision we always saw it as.
We
don’t want this to be “some cute short film” your friends made once upon a blue
moon. We want this film to blow up at film festivals! We want it to be that thing that gets passed along from dorm-room to
dorm-room or work-cubicle to work-cubicle by people who can’t get over what
they’ve seen. We want to make something you can get addicted to. Indulge in.
This is our attempt to go for broke and display our talent in top form.
While
it’s sure to be some striking and entertaining escapism, what’s most important
is that the film has something to say—it’s a focus on inner demons, unaddressed pain, and a rally-cry against the forces in
life that keep us from doing what makes us happy.
The Funding & The Perks
In order to realize the vision we have for this film, we have carefully calculated a goal total of $5,000.
That money will go towards:
- Production Staff
- The Cast
- Production Design/ Art Department
- Locations Department
- Camera Department
- Electrical/ Grip Department
- Marketing/ Film Festivals
- Editorial Department
- Catering
Having made films with NO budget whatsoever before, we know what our crew is capable of, and we know that $5000 is what it will take to get this film made. We are fully committed to raising it, and we wouldn't feel comfortable asking for help if we couldn't keep the process involving and fun for those who help us! So be sure to follow our journey on social media and take a look at our donating perks!
Other Ways You Can Help
Just because you can't contribute, doesn't mean you can't help!
