We are raising money to create 'Liminal', a short student drama film.
We are 6 Film Students at Bath Spa University who are raising funds to create 'Liminal', a short drama film. It follows Lola, a young woman who wakes up alone in the woods with no recollection of how she got there. As she tries to get back home, she stumbles upon her own missing person poster. Lola is scared, alone and spiralling out of control, but with the knowledge provided a friendly stranger, Nancy, she must come to terms with a mind-bending turn of events and discover the cause if her disappearance, all whilst in a world that is familiar, yet completely foreign to her. The inspiration for the first act of the film came from the isolation that we have all felt as a collective during the lockdowns between 2020-21; so often we find ourselves wandering around alone. Yet the surreal, fantasy element is inspired by parallel universes in other film and television such as 'the Upside Down' in Stranger Things and the layered nature of reality in Inception.
We are raising money to bring this concept to life! Our top priorities will be paying for cast and crew transport costs, as well as insuring that we have the resources to make the set completely covid-safe and that the cast are looked after. A portion of the money will also be spent on set design resources such as costume and lighting to create the otherworldly atmosphere of the Liminal Space.
The COVID-19 Pandemic has presented many obstacles that we have had to overcome, with a notable example being this January, when the lockdown took place during the time designated for shooting our trailers. We were sadly unable to work with our chosen actress and had to instead film ourselves at home.
This Semester, in light of the news of the ongoing vaccinations and recent exit plan announcement, we are positive about being able to successfully shoot 'Liminal'. Achieving our budget goal would mean the world to us as a group of young, passionate filmmakers and would help ensure that we are equipped to deal with any issues that are thrown in our direction. All contributors will be also thanked with our rewards scheme. Please feel free to share this Crowdfunder if you would like to help us out even more! Thanks for your support!
