We have been making films together for quite some time now, but nothing has been as ambitious as Murder of Crows. Following the hospice care and subsequent burial of a collapsed crow, the concept of Murder of Crows came to fruition, and we have been so lucky to secure the most exciting cast and crew for the production. We have never been as excited about a film as we are about this project, and we are so grateful to have people on our team who feel just as passionately about the idea. Now, as pre-production winds down and filming begins on July 2nd, we have decided to reach out to our community for support. Being a micro-budget indie project, we have already invested quite a bit of our own money into costuming, catering, set design, and equipment in order to make this film happen. Every year, we submit our films to the Lake Placid Film Festival, which is our main motivator for making this film. If we get accepted for this year's selection, it will be our 4th consecutive year attending. However, we want to push our limits further and submit to more competitions/festivals all over the world. Your financial contribution will help to offset any production costs that we have already paid, help with festival submission fees, and hopefully pay our cast and crew for their hard work and talent. Our crew has so graciously volunteered their time to the project because they believe in the film, but we would love to at least give them a little something for their help/support. With your donation, you will get access to our behind-the-scenes production board, your name in the credits, film set photos, and a private video of us documenting the process.

Thank you so much for your support and your belief in us. We hope you are just as excited to see this story come to life as we are!

With love,

Your co-directors Rayne Polkowski and Conrad Murphy
