The Collector
Hi, I’m Cher Lytle, director and co-writer of The Collector
short film. I have been working in the entertainment business for about 7 years
now, mainly in the YouTube community, creating, directing and coordinating, but
this is the first true venture trying to make my own narrative story.
I’ve always been fascinated with how the human mind works
and copes with adversity. The Collector is a plunge into the ‘what if’ world of
extreme loneliness and imagination. What if an incredibly lonely man who
collects the magical creatures that only he sees in the world, finds what would
be the greatest prize of his collection. But capturing this prize unlocks the
darker side of his obsession.
It does take funds to get something like this off the
ground. The costs add up and I’m hoping you good people will help out with
that.
Raising Funds
I’m hoping to raise $10,000 with this campaign. That should be enough to pay for the crew,
location, set design and decorating, which is very intense with this story,
paying the actors, gear rental, and feeding everyone on set!
Hopefully something
in the perks column, will spark an interest with you. But even if it doesn’t, I
do hope you decide to contribute. I understand there are tons of projects out
there and I don’t know if what I can offer speaks to you, or even if that is
what draws you into supporting a project like mine. What I will tell you is, if
you do decide to contribute a bunch or just give The Collector and positive
shout out on Twitter, you will be helping to achieve something very meaningful
to me and to my crew. It’s not easy to raise funds to get from dream to
reality, but I am bout and determined to see this through, successfully.
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my page. On
behalf of everyone here, thanks for your support.
