Wanna be part of making a movie??

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:

http://kck.st/9oaNpf

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.

I've also written a screen play for a movie. for 2+ yrs i've been trying to get interest in production. having money is only a part of it. there is no sure guarantee that anyone will produce/direct/act in the movie. today's world of cinema is not about talent and art ( for the most part) but about who you know, and what commercial value your project has. presently, i am acting/participating in a short film production in geneva, it will be interesting to see where that goes.

Zonker: U owe me 4 mins and 50 secs..and im not givin u  back any change! just kiddin dude


The Gin bottle wasnt too bad ..


Epicure: As far as hollywood (and in my view anything else) It was , is and will always be about commercial value and talent. As far as real talent is concerned:If u look at most modern actors ,theyre a bloody joke compared 2 yesteryears actors.With a few notable exceptions,.today's hollywood actors probably got in cos they knew where 2 sleep around or daddy or mummy got em in!


Where are the clint eastwoods, burt reynolds , charles bronson , kirk douglas, burt lancaster, mel gibson, robert de niro ,henry fonda, christopher walken, dustin hoffman, meryl streep, al pacino , jack nicholson of today???!!! 


in my opinion, Edward Norton is probably the only modern actor that can maybe compete with all the old legends in terms of talent


Nevertheless i wish Minda and her sister the best of luck

hey Zonker,


great video! all in one shooting, impressive.


don't know about glocals making it though. i feel like we're too big now..., or is it just me? i remember Sherry making a video of one of our beach parties and that was cool, though.

Well, not wishing to hijack the thread, but if anyone wants to make a film and is around ZH then please contact me! I'm trying to put together a team of people to make a no-budget short and then some!

Ha ha, good question. Well, it's all about getting people to do things for free. That is, begging and borrowing. And occasionally stealing.


The last one I did no one got paid, we used locations belonging to all of us, and in fact the only money spent was on catering because if you want people to work for nothing you have to feed them! :)

hello again everyone,


just thought i'd post a reminder for anyone else interested in helping out my sister on her project as there are only 2 weeks left.


some people have asked what they get out of it: well, the feeling of content when you help someone else! the movie's not gonna earn my sister anything financially, but it will hopefully get her into film school and off to be the next Stephen Spielberg :) everyone has a dream, and that's hers (well, maybe not becoming Spielberg, but you know what i mean...)
