Lightning In The Bottle captures the fantastical conjunction of science and nature that catapults a lowly strike hand to upper management above the clouds. The fantastic world in LITB is entirely powered by lightning. The strike hands, those responsible for capturing the lightning, work in some of the most difficult of circumstances. The short is both a science fiction parable and a corporate film showcasing the life of Frances Benson and his rise to the upper heights of corporate management.

Phase One.
The funding you are providing will contribute to the costs of creating a 2 minute trailer for Lightning In The Bottle this includes cast, wardrobe, lens rental, catering, and prop fabrication. Once you contribute we will also send you a PDF of the trailer script. Many of the other aspects of the budget (camera rental, post production rentals, color correction) are being picked up by our relationship with Arable Entertainment (many of us work here).

With the 2 minute trailer complete we will attempt to raise the remaining capital to shoot the full 16 page script. We call this Phase Two.

This project was born out of passion and cannot be made without a hearty team effort. We hope youll consider joining the team.

Thank you.

At this point - you can officially co-direct LITB. You will own props, wardrobe and frankly just about anything you want (provided it is not needed for additional photography). In addition, you will be completely integrated to the project in its entirety. You will be responsible for decisions that will effect the outcome of the short. This means you get everything (headaches included) a director gets. You don't have to be present - remote workflow can be arranged.
