HI EVERYONE, WE ARE REQUESTING YOUR ASSISTANCE IN HELPING US WITH OUR NEW ANTI-BULLYING PROJECTS.
THE PROJECTS:
__________________
1) A new short anti-bullying film which not only touches bullying but also the subject of mental illness due to social media, which is considered a growing problem in our community among teens. The social media platforms if abused can exacerbate depression, anxiety, sleep deprivation and most of all expose them to bullying.
2) A young children's anti-bullying story book.
The funds will be used to fund the project from Pre production to post production as well as cover expenses for various film festival submissions around the world.
Our last film "Alone with the darkness" Was selected at the Mediterranean film festival in Cannes, France and also at the European online Cinematography awards
THE IMPACT:
______________
THROUGH COMMUNICATION, SPREADING AWARENESS AND YOUR HELP, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE TOGETHER!
THE INSPIRATION:

Frank Gigante, is an anti-bullying activist and filmmaker, his journey in fighting bullying started in 2012 upon learning from the news of a young girl who took her life because of bullying and hearing one of her parents say "I wish I had known she was being bullied..." That inspired him to use his craft to help kids speak up rather than self harm and help adults listen and ask questions and hopefully one day end bullying..
A BIT MORE INFO & AWARDS:
