I'm Nigel, and after producing 15 films in the Bad Ben series, I'm taking a leap to create something truly special: a major motion picture called "The Genesis Experiment." This project has been a passion of mine for years—I first wrote the story and self-published it as a book in 2005, and since then, I've poured my heart into refining the screenplay. Now, I'm ready to bring it to life, but unlike my previous films where I handled everything myself, I know this one needs to be produced to theatrical standards. That's why I'm hiring a professional production company with the equipment and expertise to make this film shine.

I've talked about The Genesis Experiment many times with many of you, but if you haven't heard what it's about, here is a brief synopsis: A marble statue of Christ on the Cross is found that is bleeding from the depicted wounds in the hands and feet where it is attached to the cross. A priest who comes into possession of the statue wants to determine if it is a genuine miracle or an elaborate hoax. To do this, he has the blood tested by his brother, a geneticist and ironically, an atheist. The tests he runs on the sample prove it is a very unique specimen of human blood like nothing he's ever seen in the past. The priest is convinced this is a miracle and thanks his brother, but he is deceived when his brother extracts the DNA from the blood and uses it in an illegal experiment called The Genesis Experiment—human cloning. A child is created and the question becomes, if this is blood miraculously seeping from a statue of Christ, is it Christ's blood? And if it's Christ's blood, is the clone created the second coming of Christ?

The funds raised here will go directly toward paying the third-party production company for their services. Full disclosure: the company will create an AI version of the film, which I know can be controversial. My intention is to use this version as a blueprint to pitch the concept to major studios, showing them the story's potential and hopefully enticing them to buy the rights. If a studio picks it up, they'll likely produce it with actors, sets, and a full crew, using the AI version as a guide. At 60 years old, I feel a sense of urgency to make this dream a reality, and I want to take this big step while I still can.

I've worked hard my whole life to be creative and entertain, and while the Bad Ben series has been a wonderful journey, I believe it's time for something new. If you've enjoyed my work or believe in supporting independent creators, I would be deeply grateful for your help. Whether you can give $5 (the minimum required to donate here) or more, your support will help me achieve this dream and bring "The Genesis Experiment" to the big screen. Thank you for considering and for being part of this next chapter.
