Help me go to Cannes Film Festival
Donation protected
Hello to you great humans!
I created this in hopes of finding the means to accept this awesome opportunity and travel with my team to the Cannes Film Festival, 2015. I am a student, a traveler, and a writer with large aspirations of pursuing a career in the field of the written word. Unfortunately, I cannot spread myself any thinner working multiple jobs and being a full-time student, so I am in dire need of your support.
Screenwriting has been a passion of mine for many years, and in the past few months, I made a friend in the field with a film project in mind. Under his superb directing, writing, and editing, I co-starred in an award-winning short film, which will be screened at the national competition in Hollywood, California this summer.
We all were very humbled with the opportunity, and absolutely blown away when we received news that the film will also be screened at the Cannes Film Festival, 2015. This is the most prestigious film festival in the world, and is a priceless occasion to develop and pursue my goals as a screenwriter.
Unfortunately, I am a full time student while working three jobs, so accepting this exclusive offer is beyond my financial reach. I implore you for any support you can feasibly contribute and allow me to accept the chance to not just attend the Cannes Film Festival, but to accept my placement in their Creative Minds in Cannes-The Filmmaker's Institute program. In this program, not only will I gain access to all the festival has to offer, but I will be able to film another movie with a group of rising stars in the field.
To quote from some pretty talented street performers I've recently encountered, if you had gone to a restaurant and ordered a bowl of noodles, it would cost you about $10. It was their, and my own, firm belief that we can offer you something more entertaining than a bowl of noodles, so even half of that price would be extremely appreciated. Please help me make this dream tangible.
All the best,
Drew
