Hi, I’m Owen Matson, a passionate filmmaker currently finishing my senior thesis project, a sci-fi short film about two brothers that spot a UFO in the woods behind their house. After one brother's disappearance, the other faces scrutiny 20 years later from two government agents that demand to know what he saw. With a UFO inspired by real scientific concepts like gravitational lensing and relativity, and characters inspired by my relationship with my own brother, I intend to make a film that blends strong visuals with a thought-provoking story.

Most of the film has already been shot, and now I need your help to bring it across the finish line. I’m raising $7,000 to cover professional post-production, including editing, sound design, color grading, and most importantly, the design and creation of the UFO.

With the film due for my senior showcase on April 25, every dollar helps me complete the film at the highest level possible. Your support will not only help me finish this project but also launch my career as a filmmaker.

If you believe in the power of storytelling and independent film, please consider donating. Any amount makes a huge difference! And if you can’t donate, sharing this campaign with friends and family is just as valuable. With your help I can make this film a reality.
