As the director, my goal is to create a visually immersive and emotionally captivating experience for the audience of Savannah, Georgia, and beyond. The Far Side of The Moon tackles the subjects of self-discovery, personal struggle, and the universal human desire for control amidst chaos in an intimate and riveting perspective throughout the film. These subjects truly resonated with me, so not only did I have the desire to write this film but to direct it to convey these emotions and thoughts effectively, yet profoundly. I am devoted to bringing The Far Side of The Moon to life with the exceptional cast and crew and our audience's support, which I am truly grateful for. I invite everyone to be a part of this community and this extraordinary journey to the far side of the moon!

Our goal is to raise $8,000 for the production of The Far Side of The Moon to encapsulate several costs of bringing this film alive. Foremostly, we want to focus on the cast and crew and provide them with the equipment, necessities, and of course, meals that are required to tackle this story. In our historic city of Savannah, we want to obtain the necessary permits and location rentals to lawfully film and respect the businesses and neighborhoods of our city. In the latter, we want to cover the cost of post-production to complete the film efficiently and thoroughly. This film will connect with others therefore we set our intentions to submit to several film festivals to allow others to become a part of the audience. Finally, we aspire to premiere The Far Side of The Moon locally at a Savannah theater to commemorate the cast and crew and acknowledge the community that has supported us.
