Tim Mattson hasn't added a story.
Our short film Marrow has been a labor of love. With a year's worth of work, we're finally ready for film festivals.
Through crowdsourcing we managed to raise $2000 for production to tell our short story Marrow. Every dollar went into production including donations and support from our local community businesses. With the crew's and actor's support, pro bono work donations, and long production days we managed to shoot our film with the budget we had.
When Marrow went into post-production we had to dig deep into our pockets to fund the $2500 worth of computer generated special effects and the additional $500 worth of audio post and miscelanious post costs. For the love of filmmaking we invested funds out of pocket despite our limited resources. The learning experience made it worth it.
We would love to take it to the next step and submit Marrow to film festivals. We want to share our film and have people enjoy all of our hard work. That's where you come in. Film festivals average around $45 per entry. We're hoping to enter 10-15 film festivals, the more festivals we enter the more chances our film will get seen. We also have promotional and travel costs associated with entering into fests. We'll be printing up more posters, new postcards, and t-shirts to help with promoting Marrow at film festivals. We also need to pay for airfare and other travel means along with hotel stays.
Would you consider helping us? All of the donations we raise will be going towards helping us get Marrow into film festivals and it's promotional costs.
