I'm currently in pre-production for a short narrative film entitled, 'A BETTER PLACE." The shoot is scheduled for early October and I'm building my production team, scouting locations, etc. It's looking good so far, though almost overwhelming since this will be the biggest production I've done thus far. It should be fun though, I've got a great group of people working with me and my goal is to be as prepared for the shoot as possible.
In case you're wondering, here's the logline and synopsis:
“When the real world becomes too violent, the children of one community escape by imagining a new one."
'A BETTER PLACE' is an urban fantasy about an eight year old girl living in a neighborhood where the children are not allowed outside to play. To escape their isolation and boredom, the children begin to fantasize about a different world. They begin to disappear, one-by-one, inside an abandoned building that becomes a portal to their fantasy. Their outraged parents become part of the problem as they violently target local sex offenders and vagrants to find the missing children. They eventually trace them to the abandoned building, but only toys and remnants of their clothing remain.
