About this project
In this series of short films, the graduates from Lincoln High School discover that their adult lives are still curiously intertwined...
"MOST LIKELY" started as a stage play called “SKIRTS & FLIRTS” by GLORIA CALDERON KELLETT This popular monologue show had a sold out run in Los Angeles and a short sold out run in New York.
Our goal is to bring the stage to the screen. Each monologue would act as it’s own “short” but, should we get enough funding, we can shoot all of the monologues and turn this into a webseries to share with the public. We have added new actors and new monologues since the stage show and have an amazing group of talented people involved. Please help us make this happen. Each short costs about $5000 to produce. So, while our fundraising goal is $5000, that will truly only help us shoot the first one. So, you, our kind audience, gets to dictate how many of these we will get to produce. The first one we are shooting is THE CHICK MAGNET played by JOE MANGANIELLO (True Blood, How I Met Your Mother, Spiderman). The more funding we get… the more of these we’ll get to shoot. Please help us.
WHERE YOUR MONEY WILL GO:
Making movies is a costly venture. Even for shorts like these. We have a lot of people donating their time and resources to help us work under these micro-budgets, but your generous donations are greatly needed to help us make this happen. Contributions will go towards equipment rentals, feeding crew, location fees, production design; as well as post-production costs, including editing, sound design, mixing, coloring, and festival submissions. All of your donations are greatly appreciated and this project can definitely not happen without your help!
HOW KICKSTARTER WORKS:
Kickstarter is a trusted tool for funding independent projects in development employing an "all or nothing" approach. The pledge that you make to our short film will only be charged if and when our project goal has been met (if we do not reach our fundraising goal, you will not be charged anything). With that in mind, we're so grateful for each and every contribution, small or large, that you generously pledge to our production. Thank you.
