Need Investor for Short Film Entry in 48 Hour Film Project
Team for the 48 Hour Film Project loaded with talented cast and crew is in need of financial backing for additional equipment (dolly, lighting, gaff equipment) and catering. Project is being shot on a RED ONE camera. Locations are set in place.
If interested in helping, please email me directly for more details. I can provide cast and crew list as well as current equipment list. We are in need of approximately $700 for the remainder of our equipment and catering for cast and crew.
If you or anyone you know has contacts to or interest in investing in the production, we would greatly appreciate the help and would love to give an Associate Producer credit and potentially include some sort of product placement in the short film (T-shirt or other apparel, etc).
48 Hour Film Project is scheduled to start Friday, June 26th at 6:30pm and ends on Sunday evening at 7:30pm.
We will be shooting that weekend on Saturday, June 27th.
