“Tapping the Glass” is a horror short based in a fantasy world. The script has won awards at film festivals and placed as finalist in other competitions. This will be my first project to be produced and once finished, will submit the film into the festival circuit. My hopes are to have it filmed, polished and ready for the summer festival season, but that will all depend on funding, the director and Covid.
A Little About Me, the Writer:
My name is Alainna MacPherson, and I am an author of adult, young adult and children's fiction as well as a screenwriter. I specialize in fantasy, sci-fi, romance and dystopian genres. Most of my other scripts have won awards and placed high in festivals and competitions around the country. I live with my family; husband and three children, on their small farm in Washington state. Between diapers and catching the bus, I’m writing down the demons because they hate living in my head.
I’m more known for my paranormal books, especially The Hunt series, based on a werewolf-druid hybrid deaf teen finding her way in the new world she’s found herself in the middle of.
If you’re unable to help financially with this project, I completely understand. Though, there are other ways you can help support it. Here are a few other ideas:
SHARE. SHARE. SHARE.
Please share the link to this Indiegogo page as well as a link to the YouTube trailer to help spread the word.
PARTICIPATION (For those in So. Cal)
At this early stage in production of the film, there is still in need of a few key people.
At the moment, I’m looking for…
Hairstylist
Someone who is good at styling natural hair. The main character is black/mixed heritage and will need someone with special knowledge of styling their hair for the film.
Make-Up Artist
Someone who is able to do make-up for the lead actress.
Special Make-Up Artist
The monster in this film will need a creative make-up artist. Particularly, someone with skills in prosthetics.
Music/Audio Specialist
This film relies heavily on musical score as there is very little dialogue.
Marketing
All types of marketing on this film, pre- and post-production, will be greatly appreciated. If you have a podcast related to film or fantasy/horror and would be interested in giving the film a shout-out, that would be fantastic. Have a popular blog, YouTube, Instagram? A short plug now and then would be awesome, as well.
Thank you all for your help, encouragement and support in this and LET’S MAKE A MOVIE!
Note: I’m starting the goal at $10,000 but, may raise it later for post-production CGI if the initial goal is reached.
