'Con Tact' - Short Film
Donation protected
We're making a film! James A. Coleman and Jayne Slater will be shooting a short film in mid-September, and need your help to make it happen!
'Con Tact' is a dialogue-free romantic-comedy set at a Comic Convention in the UK. The story follows cosplayer Maria who meets and falls for another cosplayer, Stacey. The two hit it off but lose each other in the gathering, and so Maria sets out to find Stacey in the crowd of guests, traders and fellow cosplayers at the Convention.
----------------
We will be filming the entire thing on one day, September 15th, at CovCon (Coventry Convention) 2018. CovCon have been incredibly helpful and co-operative in helping us prepare for filming; we absolutely couldn't do this without their help, so we'd like to throw out a great big thank you to them now.
For more information on CovCon - or to buy tickets, if you'd like to see us there on the day! - go to www.coventrycomiccon.uk

We are therefore looking for donations to help pay for these costs. Anything you can give would be incredibly helpful, and would keep us from having to sell ourselves on the street to cover costs. Which we would do, but would rather not, you know?
A sweet, funny love story, 'Con Tact' is intended to show off the weird and wonderful world of Conventions, and hopefully gain interest in a longer form project about Convention-going women. Once completed, the short film will be sent to producers, festivals, and then shared online for all to see.
With the help of some brilliant, talented volunteers we are producing this short film in a very short space of time on an absolute shoe-string budget, but even shoe-strings won't pay for transport, costumes, and a whole host of other expenses involved in the film's production and distribution stages.
'Con Tact' will be a really fun, entertaining short film, and will hopefully open the door for more fiction about geeks and geeky activities in the future. Geeky women should be seen more, shown off toa wider public, and it is our hope that this film will go some way towards doing that. Please donate if you can, and we can bring this piece to life.
