Los Angeles, 1947; NICK MCGRAW, 35, a self-employed, hard-boiled private eye is on the verge of cracking the biggest case of his life, the murder of film actress, Veronica Davis. In the middle of the night, during a violent storm, McGraw is called to his office to speak with reporters who were tipped-off about the case. Unbeknownst to McGraw, the U.S. military is running a top-secret intra-dimensional time warp program from the top floor of his office building. The program is a continuation of Teslas defunct 1943 Philadelphia Experiment -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia_Expe.... After dismissing the reporters from his office, McGraw steps into the elevator as the storm rages outside. Lightning hits a series of strategically placed antennas on the roof; causing the elevator to act as a dimensional super-conductor. McGraw emerges from the elevator and stumbles out to an unfamiliar Wilshire Boulevard and the year2011.

Sheer Bravado Productions in Santa Monica, California, is raising $9,000 to produce the pilot to the upcoming Web TV series, THE GUMSHOE.

The pilot was written by award-winning screenwriters, Sean King & Ray Starmann("Generation Gap" - Hallmark Channel) and will be directed by Sean King. The producers are Les Goldman, Sean King and Ray Starmann.

Once the pilot is complete, the producers also plan on shooting Season One of THE GUMSHOE, which will include between 12 and 15 Episodes. They hope to gain corporate branding to sponsor Season One, and eventually would like the show to be seen on cable or network TV.

As mentioned, $9,000 is need to produce the pilot, which includes four days of filming in Los Angeles, post-production and marketing. If the producers do not meet their goal, they will commence with pre-production and then conduct another campaign on Indie Go Go, and/or seek alternate funding. The pilot will be made. No donations will be wasted!

The producers would greatly appreciate any donation, large or small. A number of perks are being offered for all contributors.
