Premonition the Actors Fund
Donation protected
In 2017 I completed my first feature-length screenplay, a meta-physical sci-fi. Since completion it has attracted a dynamic set of artist, cast and crew. While writing Premonition: the Activation I knew it would take much patience and fortitude to nurture it's blossoming into a film production. That time is here, 13 well-endowed artists have said "YES!", we will make this film! The throbbing point of funding will not stop us yet it will cause our creative spirits to rise. It is imperative that creatives receive an even exchange honoring their value. That is why I'm reaching out to you for support. As the journey in crafting this feature-length calls for all hands on deck with promise to be a most fulfilling ride. The story is about that place between following your heArt and letting your ego rule you. A cinematic experience featuring three main characters. A journalist, Sonya Gabriel, who is highly intuitive, seeking the courage to trust her instincts. An internationally recognized mega-pop star, Jaxson Mixele, who wants to live forever and is taking steps to assert his obsession. The third, a sonic warrior, Will Fay, who is pressing the boundaries of hip-hop, with unwavering determination to stay true to the social justice movement by producing new sounds infused with ancient sacred tones. Weaving their lives together as they launch through the core of their dreams. These characters have the commonality of recognizing that music and written word moves people to move mountains. This production requires distinct points to converge in building the world of Premonition: the Activation, as it includes a series of 3D animation sequences, a guru therapist base jumping as a form of meditation, traveling through the core of Earth, a soundtrack rich with the harmonics of sacred healing tones, a virtual reality out of body experience and near-future electronic devices, like the iEverything chamber and MindArouse. The iEverything is a therapeutic confession chamber that uses tones, vibrations, scents, puffs of air or essential oils to revitalize and harmonize the mind-body, soul complex, dissolving emotional imbalances and insecurities. The MindArouse is a personal device worn atop ones crown, each designed to match a given persona, it can be ornate or inconspicuous. A command center to your life, coded with ones unique aims to achieve. The MindArouse maintains your focus, detours you away from derailing temptation, keeps you on-track, anyone or anything that would not aid to allow you closer to your goals, dreams, aspirations goes unnoticed. We deserve better stories and this story activates the self in a world that is as malleable as we are apt to propagate, cultivate, manipulate and fine tune all that cannot be seen by the human eye, (sonic vibrations, thoughts, ideas, feelings, emotions, collective consciousness), into matter and being. As humans we are highly programmable and this film-in-the-making is an opportunity to inspire the path to crafting life in tandem with our passions. While macro and microscopically peering at how when we depend on technology, fame or fortune, instead of living synergistic with the creative spirit in nature, we suffer unnecessarily. The requested $7,777 is not the entire actors fund budget but it will get us started. You have the ability to give some and receive more. When one joins a group each offering becomes more rich as a whole. Collectively conjoined we fulfill our heArts desire. Join us as we nurture the opportunity to flower into reality a film that empowers the natural human spirit. Premonition: the Activation.
