The Goal
Already Committed

To build the trailer,
story development,
and the materials
that attract a producer

The people who already believe.

Support here is thanked visibly and in proportion. Give, and your name joins this list, the film credits, this website, and whenever I share just how grateful I am for the support. I will also honor your request for the opposite. But unless you tell me otherwise, I like to talk up my friends.

I have already invested $15,000 of my own money. That financed the discovery and everything filmed so far. It is not part of this ask. That's my skin in the game. I've already paid to get this made, and it's getting made. How great it becomes is directly proportional to the support behind it.

Living, local transportation, and production overhead through my departure in September.

Five months of production for the story$23,900

Going through all the footage, editing pieces together to see what works, pickup interviews, story development, the Copyist sequence treatment, trailer editing, and time spent with consultants and friends of the project.

Documentary consultants$6,000
