The Island Short Film

Extension 2 Students from the Australian Acting Academy are asking for your support so that they can go into their Short Film THE ISLAND - with costumes and set that will lift their film to the next level.

The Island -  is a 15 min short that all 15 students feature in. They have been developing the concept for 6 months and have seen it take on 5 different versions, until this final version. 

They will be shooting the film with in-kind of $3000 and $4000 cash from the Australian Acting Academy, they only need $2500 to complete their set build, costumes and cover some of the post-production. 

The 3-day shoot will be on November 8,9, 10 and raising the $2500 will mean they can go into it, concentrating on the thing that means the most to them. Telling the story.

The film industry in  Queensland is a growing concern, and having the opportunity to be on a set that is as close to professional as possible will give these dedicated students the opportunity to gain experience that money can't buy.

Your support be it $10 to $2500 will mean so much to these teens, and they have come up with a number of rewards that money can't buy to say thanks, including a limited number of the poster, an original piece of art created by one of the actors MJ Smith.
