So there we go! Now, not only have we shot the trailer...

We financed everything ourselves up to this point!
And now we need your help to finish the movie!

So what needs to happen now? From our home in South Africa
we need to finish the film and submit it to film festivals around the world.
This all costs moola.
So why should you support us?

We're from Cape Town, South Africa. South
Africa is not the movie-making mecca of the world: not even close. However, it
is full of creative people and the filmmaking industry is growing. From making other people’s movies like
District 9, Safehouse, Dredd, Chronicle, Mad Max 4 and the new TV series Black
Sails the local creatives have learnt a lot about filmmaking and now we’re
starting to create our own.
It’s near
the beginning of the journey and we are so excited to be a part of it. The Actor is our first feature film: entirely
created, produced and funded by us. We have our second and third feature film
scripts already in the pipeline and we’re ready to create them too.

If you help
us take The Actor to the world’s film festivals we can show the world what we
can do with very little. From here we can create our next film and with that
comes more growth in the South African film industry. This means more jobs,
more opportunities for people who don’t fit into the corporate mould and more great
stories being told. We want to be part
of building a world here where creative people can actually create their
dreams, do what they love and not have to compromise or be undervalued for it.
Our filmmaking teams are going to get bigger, better, learn more, teach more
and create world-class movies. You can help us get there.
