Indie Go-Go Fundraising Campaign
Our Story
We are a group of independent filmmakers making a western feature film. Our production crew is trying to do something on a scale that no one else has ever attempted before! We are shooting our film on 35mm anamorphic 100% on location in Montana.
Our film is a historically accurate period piece about a bandit named Jonathan who decides to give up his life of crime and return to his sister’s homestead. However, try as he might, Jonathan can’t escape his past when his other bandits track him down to exact retribution.
The Impact
We are attempting a film on a scale that has never been attempted on a site like this ever before. We are shooting on 35mm anamorphic film to give us the iconic wide-screen western look. Our team is working hard to make a period film with authentic sets, costumes and realistic details showing what life was really like on the classic Montana homestead.
What We Need & What You Get
We are trying to raise $500,000 to use as development funds to help match potential investors for the film.
However, our goal is not just simply monetary. We are trying to use this campaign to build a fan base and raise awareness for the project. We are attempting a grass-roots marketing campaign so that we can compete with big-budget studio pictures when we complete the film.
