About this project
VIDEO TO COME
I just got out of film school and, like most of my graduating class, I am basically unemployed. So I thought, why don't we use our talents for a fun, cheap project to keep ourselves sharp, busy, and entertained?
Enter: Craigslist Diaries. Each week a different young filmmaker transforms their favorite Craigslist posting into the filmic medium.
Some example posts that would make good films:
"1500 live ladybugs, accidently bought while drunk, feels bad."
http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/nyc/1496543734.html
"its Jared here, with COUCH-WOW"
http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/van/1490581754.html
Each of the six clips would be roughly 15-45 seconds long and reflect the individual style of the filmmaker. They would go online for the whole world to see. If this is successful / overfunded, we will make more.
The money would go towards any specific props we need, minimal equipment rentals (we have all the basics already), feeding cast and crew while working, and designing / maintaining the website. They are budgeted at 75 dollars each. Any leftover money will be used to make more, as will any overfunding.
