Foreign Exchange is a fundraising campaign inspired by my trip to Israel, to perform stand-up comedy. The purpose for this campaign is to continue the Tel-Aviv. Art Culture and Laughter documentary project. The main goal of the project is to depict how our innate sense of humor connect us all together and stand-up comedy being the vehicle that drives the audience through this idea.
The overall vision for this campaign is to produce a series of documentary style film pilots to be use as test episodes for Television Networks. We want to travel to different cities of the world such as, Tel-Aviv, Paris, Rome, London, Japan, Saudi Arabia and India, not limited to these places. The film pilot will shine light on the stand-up comic scene, the art work and culture from that region. For example, artifacts, museums, street art that tell a story, the popular eateries, along with daytime and night life activities. Several media platforms have expressed their interest in this project such as 93.9 WNYC, The Public Broadcasting Network (PBS), and the Sundance Film Festival all would love to share this project on their outlets, but It is up to us to complete. This crowdfunding campaign has no limits and will be a game changer with the support by you “The People”
There are several plans of action to raise the funds. One way is, through the Foreign Exchange Comedy show which happens on the first Saturday of the month, at Karma Lounge located on the lower east side of Manhattan starting at 8pm, second will be a grassroots street campaign through New York City and its surrounding areas, with volunteer campaign staffers, selling Foreign Exchange merchandise and sharing this online crowdfunding campaign through social media platforms.
The amount we intended to raise is one hundred and fifty thousand U.S dollars. We want this project to be professional as possible. We want to use the funds to hire professionals in the field of videography, digital editing and cover the cost of insurance while in the field of producing incase of injury. Twenty percent of the funds will be donated to charity and other crowdfunding visionaries. Check out the link to the online travel show “Budjetting" This is a project I have worked on and would like to contribute to. (https://youtu.be/thqE0rfMZdk)."
