The Actor: Indiegogo Campaign


Inspired by the craft of method acting and the extent an actor will go to perform a character The Actor is an indie feature film from Cape Town, made on a shoestring budget by a group of ambitious filmmakers who want to grow the South African film industry. Their budget was $4,000.00. Yup. They've just launched an Indiegogo Campaign to raise the finishing funds. With this they can take The Actor to international film markets like AFM and Cannes and bring this gem of an indie horror film to a cinema near you.

Web of Deceit | Indiegogo Project!
 
Please donate or share! Michael Kyne and Bianca Allaine Barnett originally produced the short film Web of Deceit (formerly M is for Marriage) as an entry into the ABCs of Death 2 Search for the 26th Director competition. In that vote-based competition, Web of Deceit placed 20th out of over 250 entries from all over the world. Now, Michael and Bianca are raising funds to produce a limited run (100) of festival edition DVDs and take their short to independent film festivals. This limited festival edition will also contain bonus materials, including  behind the scenes interviews and trailers.

Currently, Web of Deceit is entered into The Indie Gathering International Film Festival in Hudson, Ohio. We need funds to secure a vendors table as well as room and board at the festival.
