Hello there! We are a group of students in our last semester at California State University, Northridge.
Having spent the last few years studying filmmaking, the time has come for our final project: the production of our senior thesis film. Our Film and Television Arts program has been named among the Top 25 Film and Television schools in the nation and has received acknowledgements, praise, and gracious donations from The Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

We intend on delivering the best possible narrative, putting the skills and knowledge that we have gained through our experiences to use and create a piece we are proud of. However, in order to achieve our vision we need a little help along the way! We are asking for help in the form of donations - anything and everything absolutely helps and will be greatly appreciated.

So what exactly are we working on?

⁃Thesis Title: ROGUE WAVE -

A story about Kaia, a fearless young and educated woman who came back home to captain her father’s ship and give back to her small town that she loves so much. The lifestyle of an Alaskan fisherman is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, and no woman in this small community has ever been named a captain. Kaia (our protagonist) will have to prove to her community that she is better-suited to captain than her inadequate cousin. Dive in and join Kaia on her journey in gaining acceptance from her community and family.
