Hi everyone!

My name is Bella Crowner, and I’m a junior Film Production student at USC directing my next short film, More Than You -- a story about love, loss, and the quiet courage it takes to keep living.

This project is incredibly close to my heart. At its core, "More Than You" explores the human side of mental illness and the power of connection in moments of deep isolation. It’s a story about choosing life, even when darkness feels easier, and a reflection on the people who help us find our way back.

As student filmmakers, we’re responsible for funding our own productions. Every contribution will go directly toward the essentials that bring this story to life: locations, permits, set design, costumes, props, and meals for our hardworking cast and crew.

Your support means the world, whether that’s donating, sharing this page, or simply spreading the word. This film isn’t just a project; it’s a conversation about mental health and suicide prevention told through a lens of hope.

Thank you so much for helping us make "More Than You" real.

With love and gratitude,

Bella Crowner
