The crowdfunder really isn't my job, but unfortunately it seems to have fallen on me to spearhead it. I'm not going to go into too much detail, because it really isn't my job. But here's some of the stuff I've put together for it.
I put together a short trailer for the film using various potential locations I'd shot paired with a stanza from T.S. Elliot's The Hollow Men. I wanted something that would give people the vibe of the film, but wasn't just us sitting around talking. I thought this would be a more interesting way to grab people's attention.
However, I also put together a more traditional crowdfunder video. It really is just us sitting around talking about the film, but I think it's important for our friends and family to see the faces of those involved. Harris wasn't actually available at the time of the Zoom call, so I actually recorded his lines and added him in in post!
I also designed a series of posters. I know a lot of people paid for posters to be designed. I designed these myself as a way of saving a bit of money and I think they turned out ok. I made one main poster and then three separate ones. Each of the separate ones represented a character. I was inspired by Saul Bass' minimalist style for these.
