Hello, friend, from the SET of the Greatest Treasure in the World!

Today is our first day on the BIG SET — the house of Rupert Bobbins and his beautiful wife Lisa (Katie Marovitch). Our team is amazing, the location is amazing… this is not very descriptive, is it?

Well, honestly there’s almost too much to say. Which is why… we’re posting about all of it on Patreon. (Note: if you supported our seed&spark, you have free access to this. check your messages!)

Our initial crowdfunding run went amazing, and there’s been a small conspiracy of fate, and weather, and bad communication on the part of people who give out permits, and we would really love some help finishing our film the best it can be. We have a fantastic team of the best in the biz, and we’re also just a few little guys trying to make our dream movie. 

Here are the two reasons you should join this Patreon and give us between $5 and $70,000….

1. Your funds will be an active part of a making a unique and beautiful film possible! 

2. We’re going bring you (virtually) with us and it’ll be like you’re there. Photos from set, notes from the next two months, videos from this beautiful and crazy cast. Discounts on merch and eventual DVDs/Blu-Rays. You get it all because we love you! 

Why we’re asking for money — A heat wave in LA caused us to lose a few important hours of shooting (because we didn’t want the actors to pass out, I know, who cares*), and we’d love to add another day to pick up that scene and a few more. If you want to donate (tax write-off!) or invest a bunch of money — email [email protected]! Our producer Alex says investment starts at $25k which I don’t have but maybe you do.

Here’s a nice little preview of what we’re up to on the Patreon:

• Cookie recipes from Director of Photography Jill Petracek

• All about the job of a script coordinator on a film with no script

• process images from production designer KC McGeorge

• and of course, way too many photos and videos from our beautiful cast.

Love,

Laser + Izzy + the Team

*jk seriously it was dangerous and I’m proud of us for taking care of them
