Producers Fundraising For Indie Horror Film

Dec. 18, 2012 - PRLog -- NORTH BAY, ON (DEC. 17, 2012) Weekday Cocktails Films has set out to start filming and producing their first full length feature film, A dark horror comedy called “Where Our Shadows Lie”. The film will be shot, edited and released completely in North Bay. Where Our Shadows Lie is about a group of friends mixed up with a demon that can move from person to person through their shadows, making them turn against each other. Writers Travis Tiernay and Shawn Fitzmaurice have completed the script and lined up crew and talent for the film but need the help of the public to get this production off the ground. The group has started a campaign on IndieGogo, a crowdsourcing web site, where people can help the project by donating what they can in order to help fund the film.

So far the campaign has raised just over $600 but there is still a long way to go. With just 42 days left,  the group has a goal of $25,000. The money raised from the campaign will go towards the purchasing and rental of professional equipment such as dollies and cranes, the rental of a location to film and of course DVD pressing and distribution.

“Helping by donating $10 could mean an hour of gear rental, one light bulb  a portion of studio rental, or the ramen noodles need to fuel the craft service. If you are lucky, your $10 could buy more fake blood ingredients.” Said Lydia Peever, curator of Ottawahorror.com and author of Nightface.

Funders for the project will be awarded special perks ranging from signed memorabilia and a thank you in the credits all the way up to executive producer credits for larger donations. Those who are unable to donate are encouraged to help by sharing the indiegogo page on social networks and subscribing to the YouTube page at http://youtube.com/tiernay
