We’re Zach (Writer/Director) and Karl (Cinematographer), and we’re excited to bring the short film, Ray is Getting Fired, to life this August. This film is a dark workplace comedy about a man who discovers he’s about to be fired through an accidentally forwarded email. What starts as an awkward office situation quickly spirals into a day of confusion.

This project is a true collaboration between the two of us, and we’re handling everything from writing and directing to organizing the shoot. We’re raising funds to help cover essential costs like equipment rentals, securing filming locations, and paying our cast and crew. With our shoot scheduled for August 23rd and 24th, we need to secure these resources in advance to make sure everything runs smoothly. Your support will help us turn this story into a memorable short film and share it with a wider audience.

Every contribution brings us closer to making Ray is Getting Fired a reality. Thank you for helping us create something special that we hope will entertain and resonate with viewers.
