Recently (like 20 minutes ago..) I found another gold brick. A short film on the website, nofilmschool.com that was a surprisingly easy find which makes me very unsettled. But anyway, this film is like no other that I've personally seen before. The title is, "He Took His Skin Off For Me". Already and odd and interesting title.. The film is an obvious Fairytale with an almost dark twist. The main character's boyfriend/husband has the ability to remove his skin for her and so he does with the reasoning being unknown, and throughout the film is what it's like living with him and all the new things she has to do to keep an hygienic household.
Anyway, to the point...
This film is similar to my position in the short film because they raised money, just like we are, to fund this whole film (not to mention a huge stroke of luck). By using the internet site Kickstarter, they raised enough money to produce this oddly beautiful film. I chose to write about this one for inspiration for my class. They didn't have an infinite budget or a professional team for the incredible make-up or even a larger-than-life director, and they still pulled off an in my opinion, grade A film.
My point is, we might or might not meet our fundraising goal but pulling off a captivating story isn't impossible.
