I need help in financing a faith-b ased film. In this world filled with so much chaos and violence, I feel we need a ‘feel good’ film to enlighten people as to the truly important issues in life. We need to restore faith, harmony and unification in America. As an Indie filmmaker, I wish to produce a short faith-based film about a boy who loses his faith due to a traumatic episode in his early childhood. He becomes lost and a troubled teen. Then, through a series of life altering events, he regains his faith. The film points out that we don’t always get what we want or what we think we need. People need to stop feeling entitled to everything they desire. The title of my film is, ‘Ask God.’ After surviving a life-threatening brain tumor, I received a message in my sleep that compelled me to bound out of bed and write it down. The message was to ask God for the answer, then open your heart and listen for the truth. I didn’t know what it meant at the time. Then, as a Make-A-Wish volunteer, I was asked to make a film for a little wish girl. We didn’t have a song and driving to set one day, those memorable words came back to me. Driving down the street, I scribbled the words of inspiration down on a piece of paper. More words flowed and I had a full page when finished. A man by the name of Fleet was playing the part of the angel in the film. I called him that night as he is a singer. He called back so excited that he had the melody in mind. Then, another friend, Joel, put it to music and we had a song. I want to use the song in the film as well as the inspiration it motivated. It’s my intention this film will restore faith in everyone who watches it. I need funds to be able to pay cast and crew, feed the cast and crew and secure locations, props and wardrobe for the filming; as well as entry fees to film festivals. I have all the equipment we’ll need. I expect the filming to take four days over the period of two weekends. I would appreciate anyone’s financial help to bring this project to fruition.
