In order to bring the vibrant world of ‘Powdered and Dancing’ to life in an authentic way, this short film requires a budget that matches the ambition of the script. Three essential elements in particular call for a higher budget in our case:
The period 1930s setting
Shooting on 16mm film
Large number of supporting artists
needed for party sequences
We are currently seeking partners to come on board as either Associate or Executive Producers through a financial contribution. You will also have the opportunity to invest in the feature version of ‘Powdered and Dancing’ which will follow.
Below you will find a breakdown of the various offerings at each level. If you prefer a contribution amount that is not listed, we can gladly discuss a bespoke level that works best for you.
We look forward to welcoming you on this journey with us.
