The Impact
The impact of this project is huge
and at a crucial stage of the development for our feature. This project is not only a short meant
for festivals but a sample of our abilities that investors will examine during
our push into making our full-length feature. This is important because the goal of our feature film is to
help bridge the gap between Asian Americans and Asian audiences. As Asian Americans, we have been
influenced by the films from Asia, but there has not been much of a presence or
awareness of Asian Americans for countries such as Korea, China, Japan, and
others. We hope that making a
co-production starring both Asian American stars (such as James Kyson) and stars
from Asia, we hope to be a part of establishing a global filmmaking community
that is without borders.
What We Need & What You Get
The money raised will go directly
to crew, food, and other essentials.
The "above the line" talent, (such as the director, producer, and James
Kyson himself) are all working for free out of faith in the project. (James has even paid for his own plane
ticket down, if that doesn't show you his love/commitment then we don't know
what does) Since this project is a
teaser to the full-length film with a lot of potential, the crew are donating
their time and efforts; it is very important to us that we take care of them
and provide adequate coverage of their food and expenses. The final funds will also help pay for
the rental of equipment. Henry J.
Kim has been proven to make the most out of every dollar on his productions, as
No Rest for the Wicked was a low-budget action film with a big-budget
look. It was described by the
Korea Daily as "a film whose quality was equal to any big budget Hollywood
film."
Other Ways You Can Help
You can help us by given us a
shout out on your blog, Facebook, and telling you friends. Word of mouth is
very important, but must be done quickly as the production date is already
near! Also, we can take donations
of meals or props and other services we might need during the shoot. Please check the website for more
details.
