About this project
We've been making FunnyOrDie videos for the past few months, and we wanted to make something more substantial to submit to film festivals next year. A few weeks ago we shot this awesome short that Dave Franco wrote about a game of Would You Rather where the choices people make start coming true — it's a comedy, with elements of fantasy and romance. We've paid for all the production costs, and now we're in post-production and need money for a colorist (the film was shot on a RED Epic, so it looks AMAZING; we need an expert to come in and take it to the next level), a sound mixer (there are lots of sound effects and music that need to be brought together), music rights, and finally, mastering to a screenable format. So we need a little help to finish the project!
OUR FUNNYORDIE SHORTS:
WHAT WE'RE USING THE MONEY FOR:
- Professional colorist to take our awesome RED Epic footage and make it even better.
- A great sound mixer to help the sound of the film come alive.
- Mastering costs to get our film ready to screen at festivals in the next few months.
