About this project

ABOUT THIS PROJECT:

Take Care is a feature-length drama in which the ordinary, unexamined lives of a young couple are uprooted when they open their home to the surprise visit of a troubled friend.  This tale of romantic and platonic relationships in uncertain times explores a complex mix of complacency, forgiveness, denial, and being one’s own worst enemy with devastating results.

HOW FAR ALONG IS THE FILM?
Principal photography is complete and the film is edited, meaning you will be able to see our film soon... very soon!!!  Festival submissions (as a work-in-progress) have already begun!

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
We hope to raise $8,000 in finishing funds through Kickstarter to enable us to cover upcoming post-production costs, and the subsequent festival submission/marketing fees.  We anticipate a spring 2012 premiere!

With your support we can finish Take Care and bring it to you through the film festival circuit and reach as many eyes as possible.  Every little bit helps!  In return for your donation (done safely via Amazon.com) we have offered some rewards in return, seen to your right.  We thank you for your support and allowing this labor of love created among friends come to fruition.

Scott Tanner Jones had a small festival hit with his 2007 short film Plainview, a dark drama in which a restaurant manager attempts to redeem herself after being talked into a humiliating strip search of her socially inept employee. It played over thirty film festivals, including Stony Brook, Cinequest and Rhode Island International, and garnered several awards along the way, including two for actress Ryan Driscoll.

Other projects include the “Carbone” series, a 180-degree turn into comedy and finds him donning the additional role as lead actor. Acting credits include the Slamdance short film Cushion and the recent webseries The Intern.

Scott currently resides in Los Angeles. Take Care marks his feature film debut and reunites him with Plainview lead Ryan Driscoll.
