Help Angel Make His Movie

Donation protected
Hello,
              I am an aspiring film maker in San Antonio with dreams of being the most successful independent film maker of all time. I will also love to have my own studio so other film makers  from all over the world can create and share their passion and art outside the normal Hollywood realm.  I want to make a healthy living off of what I love to do: Creating. As of right now, that's all I have is my dreams. I have written over 30 screenplays (12  of those hand written)already but they don't mean anything if I don't have the tools needed to bring my paper vision to reality. I continue to write whatever comes to mind. Nothing I ever do is mindless and that includes what I put on paper.  I can't sell them or bring  them to life because I don't own a computer. (using my works). I have a tablet but can't do what I need to do there either. The money would go to a computer, camera and for the actual movie itself.  I want to give back to my community AND to the entire world. I want filmmakers from around the globe to have another place to share their visions, enhance their creativity and hone their skills (writing, camera, film. etc).  I feel this is my only chance in getting what I need not want.

UPDATE: I am protective of my stories but i feel that I need to share what I have written so far to show you how serious and real I am with this. So below is a list of completed stories without revealing too much.

My first projects will be an anthology of sorts of which i titled "Dark Grey Series" and will feature 4 Chapters with 1 movie for each chapter. All stories will be in black and white because that's the way i envisioned them. I cannot even come close to seeing these in color.
They will be told out of order and although they take place in the same area, all stories can be stand alone with hints and clues(some obvious, others not) throughout. Also all stories deal with tragedy and heartbreak. They deal with darkness of the human spirit. 3 out of the 4 take place in late 50s early 60s and one in early 1900s.

Dark Grey Series:

Chapter 3: "Mechanical"- taking the slasher genre back to the "Psycho" roots and making slashers scary again. The first half hour was written with it being the most suspensful and intense opening you have seen in years. While the rest of the non-linear story fills in the gaps of what occured before and after. The story will be heartbreaking. Side note: i listened to many songs from The Manson Family as inspiration for this. It is where I got the title.

Chapter 4 "The Madness of Death"-Taking the zombie genre back to the "Night of the Living Dead" era and also making zombie stories scary...as they were meant to be. This will penetrate your mind and scar you with the imagery I display.

Chapter 1: "Clown: A Genuine Smile"- Inspired by "Freaks" this takes place in the circus/carnival grounds of the late 1890s early 1900s. Part supernatural and part murder mystery. NOT a rip off of Freaks or American Horror Story: Freaks.

Chapter 2: "A Brain Washed"- This will tie both Chapters 3 and 4 together. Story of a mad scientists attempting to cure insanity but creates more in the process.

Those are the 1st 4. Here are others:

1. muerto, pero nunca vivió(Dead but never lived)-A story of  forced child drug smugglers caught between the world of evil kingpins and the undead. 4 homeless children are the center of our story. Story is 95% spanish with english subtitles. Trust me...a heart wrenching story since aside from the undead, the story is true.

2. Vital Sins- a slasher story which i thought of as the "Pulp Fiction" of slashers. Non linear story telling but all linked together. Gory, creepy and compelling. I hand wrote this at 182 pages. A lot of details and thoughts for this one. A mixture of Hills have eyes, Texas chainsaw massacre, children of the corn and People under the stairs all rolled into one.

3. Bloodcrave: A Vampire Tale- set in old days of a time unknown.  First and last 10 minutes are a silent movie. The rest is heard loud and clear. A princess escapes her father's castle and wanders into the castle of a vampire nicknamed Bloodcrave. I believe this is a Beauty and the Beast type of story. But the vampire isn't the beast. Very goth inspired. Very violent and also in black and white.

4. Strangled?- A muder mystery inspired by "strangers on a train" and "dial M for murder". Your head will spin with all the revelations and turns. set in the 40s in color.

5, 6, 7. Haunted night series- 3 halloween movies set in the 1920s, black and white. All linked together. Slasher, zombies, ghosts, witches, werewolves, maniacs and yes...killer children. 3 movies, 3 stories....all dark and grim.

8. Devil' Ballroom- another 1940s Halloween story about a serial killer invited to a halloween party. Entire story takes place in the ballroom. Inspired by the shining and also in B&W.

9. Invasion From Planet Z- a mixture of night of the living dead, plan 9 from outerspace, invasion of the body snatchers and shaun of the dead. My black and white take on old "invasion" movies from the past. Story is set in the 1950s.

10, 11 Justine- A teenage female slasher story. She is the female Victor Crowley but that is to give you an idea of her brutality. Stories are different. It is a two parter because I am a story teller and I can't tell it all in one story. Besides Justine more killers will emerge and an all out war of the insane will ensue.

12. Bleeding(working title) a bonnie and clyde vampire story that WANTS to be a love story but the characters and I won't allow it! Another heartbreaking yet very gory violent story. If you like Twilight....then stay away. Far away.

These are just some of them. I have a lot more. One I am working on is titled "A Nazis Story". Think of Forrest Gump....now think if he was a Nazis. We tell the story of a fictional Nazis as he crosses paths with the most evil and notorious figure of the Third Reich.

I do have non horror written such as "My 50s story" which is a teen comedy. Not all of my stories are black and white...again just how i envisioned them.

In closing, help me out and you will see that I am the new brand of horror. I will bring you storytelling and sickness on a whole new level. I beg you for this chance.
