Support Thea Miller's Mini-Pilot: Keeping of the Drones

Hi! My name is Thea Miller and I am raising money for my MFA film project as a Showrunning student at Chapman University. As the Writer and Executive Producer (known in the big leagues of television as "The Showrunner"), I am in the process of producing a mini-pilot called Keeping of The Drones where two young men navigate what for centuries has been a female predicament: being used as reproductive objects.

My film is set in a dystopian world that is the inverse of The Handmaid's Tale and the society the characters live in is a matriarchy modeled after a beehive.

To find out more about our main characters 1201 & 1407 (two best friends who live in a bunker) and the world they live in, please stay tuned to watch the mini-pilot and please consider donating to our production so that we can tell the story as best we can.

The mini-pilot will be directed by MFA Producing student Isabelle Rivera, filmed by MFA Cinematography student Amelia Jauregui, edited by MFA Editing student Aastha Kotak, designed by Boston University MFA Screenwriting student Isabella Nielsen, and produced by MFA Showrunning student Rio Turnbull.

We plan to submit the film to multiple festivals in order to get our names out there and progress our careers as young filmmakers!

Our goal is to raise $5,000 that will go towards crew meals, location rentals, costumes, and production design!

Thank you again for considering donating to the making of our film! Your contributions are so important to the building of this world! I will ensure that everyone who donates receives special thanks and a copy of the film!

Sincerely,

Thea Miller

Showrunner
