We have the opportunity for hobbyists to take things to the next level and work on a bigger project! We’re a new underground production company making a fast-moving and exciting full-length action movie – but without a Hollywood-level budget! Although we can’t offer much in the way of financial reward, anyone involved in a major role will have the option of a percentage of potential returns. While no one will get rich, this is a great opportunity to get your name known and advance your career. Even though we already have our main production team in place, we are still looking for new players in just about every area so that we can divide the tasks amongst a larger group to share the workload. The film will be in Finnish and English.
Screenplay development – March-August 2021.
Filming – 2-4 weeks in August-September 2021 mainly in the Helsinki region.
Post-production – Autumn and winter.
Estimated completion of the film in spring 2022.
– Dozens of actors for side roles: – men and women of all ages for “baddie” roles e.g. cops, agents, mafia players (it would be nice to have a few well-known people, such as musicians, appearing in a quick under-a-minute cameo roles)
– Actors who can speak English eg with a Russian, French, Asian accent (other accents may be suggested)
– witch doctor / shaman (“near” Levi)

– cars (a couple of cars for the shots and for the transport of the shooting group, for the latter 1 + 8 seats would be necessary) with drivers
– cameras (60-120fps 4K, high speed camera might be needed for some individual scenes) and other shooting equipment (optics, tripods)

We are a new underground movie company seeking extra funding for our forthcoming action movie to be filmed in summer of 2021 for 2022 release. As well as the usual crew, equipment and accommodation costs, this project involves plenty of pyrotechnics and digital special FX. These are costly but with your help we can meet the challenge and create an unforgettable movie even without a Hollywood-class budget.
The more funding we receive, the better the end product will be and you can rest assured that every cent will be put to the best possible use in supporting underground film making. All those contributing 100 euro or more will have their name in the end credits (if desired) as well as the chance to see a special movie premiere before general release – in addition to some exciting surprise bonus gifts.
Event will be held on December 31st 2020.
