IF YOU CAN READ THIS, YOU'RE DEAD

Hi, I'm Ben Rankin. I love making things, from music to photography to YouTube videos, and now, I want to make a short film! Here's my pitch: a man wakes up to the newspaper headline "If You Can Read This, You're Dead," and the film follows him as he relives some of his memories and comes to terms with his death. The film will be around 10 minutes, and will be posted to YouTube when it's finished.

My team and I are in the pre-production phase, and we'll be starting production in April. We need funds for equipment, shooting locations, and- most importantly- paying our cast & crew. We can't make this project happen without them, and we'd really like to be able to compensate them for their time and effort.
