BAZZOOKA: An afropunk apocalyptic web series
Donation protected
BAZZOOKA is a visual document of the black experience in 2022, made by a BIPOC artist to hire BIPOC artists. it's a web series that finds Eva Walker's Gab from Kill me to death (streaming on REVRY ) return to a war-torn Seattle following the death of Danny Deniall's Black and team-up with a new band of black anarchists to take back their city.
The mission of this project is to EMPLOY and ELEVATE black creatives in Seattle, both in front of + behind the camera. How expansive this project can be comes down to budget, and $3,000 is the minimum we would need to get it off the ground. Times are tough for us, especially as the wave of #BlackLivesMatter support for black artists has come and gone-- I'm making BAZZOOKA to be something that pays us for our work and showcases our art. This means casting artists of color, staffing crew members of color + featuring an all-black soundtrack.
Due to current safety concerns, production will have to navigate certain limitations. The series was written with these in mind. The plan is to shoot certain sequences remotely and employ green screen studios as our first avenues, to complete a substantial part of the series, before *hopefully* being able to shoot more traditionally in 2021. Irregardless of what and how we shoot, safety will be a top priority for us.
Special rewards for backers:
$50 Backers - Special Thanks in End Credits
$250 Backers - Co-Producing Credit on Series
$500 Backers - We'll write you into the series! (Cameo)
