Make my Movie
MAKE MY MOVIE (MMM) is an innovative multi-platform project that utilizes graphic design, social networking, a webseries and the public to decide which idea should receive $100,000 to be used to create a low budget feature film.
That sure sounds like the usual toss that ends up in successful proposals to funding bodies doesn’t it? Well it is and it was. So what does all that crap up there actually mean?
What it means is that anyone can enter MMM. All they need to do is upload their movie idea with the following; a title, a logline, a poster and a synopsis. The entries then get culled down to a top 12 with some help from social networking and a panel of industry types. When we are down to the final 12, then the public really gets involved and backs the film they want to see made.
We may have a Rocky-type scenario with a professional going head-to-head with a rank outsider. We eventually end up with a winner who then gets to make their film. Throughout this online process we have an online webseries that will be fly-on-the-wall coverage of the entire project; from launch through to finished feature film. MMM will then provide as much assistance (produce/ distribute) as humanly possible through our incredible sponsors/partners to guarantee a very large audience an ultra low-budget indie that usually would struggle to get much traction in the cluttered marketplace.
A great idea
