WanderLand
WE DID IT - WE HIT OUR FIRST GOAL OF £1500! THANK YOU!
We are now raising money for our stretch goal which is an additional £1000 so that we can get a festival strategy created by Festival Formula and get the film out to festivals across the globe.
Total goal: £2500

So, What's WanderLand?WanderLand is a short film that is very close to my heart; it is a social realism drama following six year old, Alice, who is taken to a seaside resort by her mum almost every night after school. One night, whilst Alice is wandering down the pier, she loses sight of her mum and awakens to the world around her.
We have completed the production of the short and it is now in post-production, which we are raising additional funds for. The film was lucky enough to have been funded by Genera Films, but our original budget expanded to due to additional costs that popped up as filming went ahead.
Below you can find some screenshots of our incredible short film.
The funds raised on this campaign will be used to finish the film and pay a small fee towards each of our post-production team, to cover their time and expenses. We were lucky enough to be awarded funding by Genera Films in 2020, which has covered our production but isn't enough to cover our post-production funds and we really need your help to get this film off the ground.
Once we raise the initial £1500, we are looking to raise an additional amount of funds to help with a festival strategy and submissions. We hope to work to work with Festival Formula on the films release.
Updates
Graded and Almost Ready!
By the time this crowdfunder is finished, we will have a final film and I'm so excited that the journey has taken us this far. Thank you for donating, we are only £80 away from £2000 and if we can get at least £2100, that would be great.
Brand new pledge - Official (Physical) Poster!
What a better way to really be part of a movie by having a physical poster of it? And, it'll be bigger than A4, bigger than A3, in fact it may even be bigger than A2. But, we're deciding on that at the moment.
Only 30% left to raise!!
Thank you, honestly, so much for donating to this campaign - making this film has been a long journey! I wrote it back in mid 2019, cast it by end of that year, we then went onto filming it in early 2020 but the pandemic stopped us completing the film.
65% Of The Way There!
Huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far, we are now 65% of the way to our final target of £2500. I am so unbelievably proud of this film and want it to do the best it can. Please donate if you can!
Holly has a little message....!
Our wonderful lead actress, who is only eight, has created a little message she wants you all to hear!
Wow! Over £1600!
WanderLand is the gift that keeps on giving and you are all that gift! Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to the campaign so far, we are 25 days away from finishing the campaign with about £895 left to raise (absolutely not impossible!).
We are at 103% of our goal!!
Wow thank you so much, we have hit 100% of our goal with 10 days to go! Now that we have hit our post-production goal, we have a further stretch goal of £1000 to help us get the film out to festivals, which will include us getting a festival strategy from the incredible Festival Formula!!
So close, please help us hit our goal!
Wow! We literally are only £110 off the finish line, can you believe it? Please help us hit our mark (anything we raise over £1500 will go towards our festival run!).
Support us... and another!
Well, I'm so grateful to be 92% funded with 14 days to go and i can't wait for us to hit it. Meanwhile, if you want to support another filmmaker, then please check out my friend Matt's crowdfunder! He is crowdfunding for a horror film over on Indiegogo!
