Story
About The Project
TurtleDove Films doesn't believe you have to be a seasoned veteran to make a really incredible film happen. The most important thing is that you have a need to tell a really great story -- it turns out we're not alone in this idea. But too often people are embarassed to ask the simple questions: Why do we slate? What's an OTS? How does one record sound? We know we were afraid... and lost. And in our first month we knew nothing about making a film and we met hundreds who were just like us: eager and hungry for something more! So we taught ourselves and we would like to continue that. We've already formed an LLC, but we know that to make it a sustainable venture we need to increase our production value and widen our audience -- this means new equipment, better final products, and more exposure through digital releases, festivals, and competition entries. All of that comes with a cost. This campaign is for that.
