as glocals is a community where we all help each other with information, advice or activities, i thought some people might be interested in helping make a movie! ;)
my sister is a budding and very talented movie-maker (and it's not just my biased opinion - i know a Hollywood editor who thought her last movie was great!). she's currently working on raising money for her 2nd serious short movie. with this in mind, she's set up a website where anyone can donate money to help her make this movie (the minimum is $2, it's hard to beat!). if you're interested in contributing to this great new project, please check out the link:

everybody who contributes will have their name on the credits, and more, depending on how much they donate ;) i've attached my sister's message below, but it's worth clicking on the link and seeing her talk about it - and MUCH more FUN!
"Hi there!
Anyone who has dreams but has been banging their heads on the wall to figure out how to make them happen will be able to relate to my situation. Well that's up until now as, believe it or not, I have found a solution to my head-bagging (literally). And that solutions is YOU.
Let me explain: my dream is to make films. The solution: Kickstarter. Kickstarter is a fundraising site that allows artists to raise the necessary funds to make their dream come true and put their message out there. Because, let's face it: being an artist actually costs money - so if you want art to keep on spreading in this world, I am offering you an opportunity right here and right now to help on its creation.
So anyway - my dream can only come true if YOU support me by donating as little as $2. Your contribution will also get you perks proportionate to your donation. (You can also spread the word, or help bring this project to life by commenting on the blog.)
To sum up, you'll be responsible for the making of this film and through this you'll unleash a new vision of the world, a new voice. You'll follow the journey to making this dream come true.
So, make it happen - let that person be you! Remember as little as $2 can make this work and create a little piece of art, in the shape of my short film IN YOUR HANDS.
SHORT FILM PROJECT SUMMARY:
IN YOUR HANDS is a suspense driven short film about betrayal and trust. With this film, we seek to cast a new light on our coping abilities and explore the relation between self-control and crime. For all the film-lovers and aspiring filmmakers out there, this short film project is a great opportunity to get involved as well as gets perks from behind the scenes of this film.
