Welcome!

We are Kellyn and Lauren, two film students looking to make a killer senior project. We’re raising funds for our short film untitled “WOODS,” which chronicles the fantastical adventures of Maddy, a young girl who faces a monster in the woods behind her childhood home.

This project gives us a chance to showcase all that we’ve learned throughout our years at school, through a story that we feel passionate about and deeply connected to. We love the act of creation and telling good stories, and want to be able to contribute to the ancient tradition of artful storytelling in a meaningful way.

But we need help. We’ve got the creativity, we’ve got the drive, we’ve got the passion, hopes and dreams. But we don’t got the money. That’s where you can help!

Money Money Money

Down to the dirty business. When you donate, rest assured that your money will help fund vital costs including:

·  Transportation

·  Food

·  Wardrobe

·  Props

·  Festival Submissions

All of these costs add up, and we simply can’t afford to cover them all ourselves. And when you give, you get rewarded with fun perks! See the side for details.

This Is Important

We’ve successfully created several short films in the past, each of which has brought us closer and closer to fully realizing our original vision through the medium of film. This is an opportunity to showcase all that we’ve learned through our college years and our semester in LA.

We want to make this film to find commonality between humans through the sharing of a story. We want to explore truth, and make internal experiences external. We want to create a sense of community between those working on the film as well as between the audience and filmmakers and between the viewers.

And we want to submit to festivals! We want this film to be SEEN and experienced by a broad audience and receive feedback on our work.

It Won’t Be Easy

We decided to take risks in the development of this film, including tricky effects in the script like a magical jump rope that defies gravity and pine cone grenades that explode in puffs of color. These effects will undoubtedly enhance the overall quality of the film, as well as stretch us in new and creative ways. And with the proper practice and planning, we’re confident we can pull it off.

And of course, filming a short film outdoors in New England always poses the risk that the weather will be less then ideal. But again, with proper planning and a bit of flexibility, we believe we’ll succeed.

Shout It From the Roof Tops!

Excited yet? We are too! If you’re looking for another way to help, please, please, please spread the word and encourage your friends to donate. We’re truly grateful for all the support we can get, and any money we raise over our goal will only help make our film better (and help us submit to more festivals). So, spread the word!
