Don't let Dylan lose his mind! Help him finish his movie!

HELLO!

Stefanie here. I am Dylan Stephen Levers' EP for his film POP POP. And by EP, I mean Emotional Producer.

12 years ago, Dylan had the idea for this film. That's right! 12 YEARS AGO, he started making this movie and asked me for help.

And here's the deal: never in my life have I seen anyone put more of themselves into a project. He not only wrote and directed it. He also produced it and FINANCED it!

And this was no cheap thing. This was big dreams. This was 7 discreet shooting units. This was tons of animation that's been done by 10 animators. This was pre-visualization and green screens and the creation of an entire manosphere, so that our hero could get lost in the darkest parts of himself and we could watch.

It has not been cheap. It was OVER 1 MILLION DOLLARS. And Dylan, himself, has paid for 80% of that! That has meant he has taken job after job after job and poured just about everything he's made into this film for years. It's been a wild thing to watch. And more than once, I have worried about his mental health.

So many of us know that making things is HARD! And if you had a friend who was pouring their WHOLE selves into their project, you would want to help them too!

Right now, they're finishing the VFX. They're heading into color and sound. They're so close to being done and there's only $110k left. Any bit of money that we can offer is one less time Dylan will have to follow a giant candle around the eastern seaboard or produce pool parties in the Lake of the Ozarks in hopes of finally finishing.

Please, please, please, I beg of you. Send $1. Send $5. Send $100. Let's help him finish this thing without having the mental breakdown that he's been teetering on the edge of for far too long!

Sincerely and with great love for my friend,

Stefanie

P.S. The movie plot: "Dustin and Dibz survived their senior year of college and their future looks bright. But can they also survive cancel culture? The Manosphere? Neo-nazis? THE 2016 ELECTION?! Will they ever discover how to be Real Live Grown Up Men in Society? Probs not."

**Somehow it's still staggeringly prescient, don't you think?!
