Short Summary
Isolated in a small town with his abusive father, 17-year-old Harry Longabaugh attempts to live up to his outlaw fantasies through an act of senseless violence- but can he bring himself to do it?
Hi, my name is Tess, I'm a freshman year film student at the Savannah College of Art and Design, and I'm fundraising for a proof of concept passion project. The One-Shot Kid channels old westerns in an exploration of abuse and its psychological effects. This film is part of a series of shorts that I've been developing over the past year and a half in preparation for a feature.
Coming from directing several short films in the past, this will mark my largest budget production. Any and all help to make my film a reality would be beyond appreciated!

For this project, I'm aiming to raise $1200. Majority of funding will be going towards equipment rental and insurance. Being that I am a college student, I can't offer much in terms of benefits, but you will receive my eternal gratitude as well as a few small perks including special thanks in the credits, digital posters, a copy of the film, and more.
Here's, roughly, how any donations will be utilized:
$10 will feed a crew or cast member for one meal.
$25 will pay for one prop in the film.
$50 will pay for one film festival submission.
$100 will pay for one piece of rental equipment.
