Gina from HauntedFlower.com reviews "Going the Distance" starring Justin Long and Drew Barrymore as a couple trying to do a long distance relationship.
"Pervertigo", a new independent feature-length film is being made right here in Indianapolis! From writer/director Jaron Henrie-McCrea and producer Shrihari Sathe comes the story of Lloyd Gills, a lonely Peeping Tom, who is propositioned to murder his landlord's wife. Spooked, he runs for the hills. But with a badass debt collector hot on his tail, Lloyd has no choice but to agree to the murderous offer. Only problem is, Lloyd has fallen in love with the target.
This movie is currently in the pre-production stage and needs to raise money for the Production Design department. There are various levels of perks with different donation amounts varying from getting a DVD of Pervertigo, to also getting other short films made by Jaron/Shrihari, to tickets to the premiere, or even a prop from the movie!
Details on how your donation helps can be found here as well as the helpful, funny video at the bottom of this article: Indiegogo.com/Pervertigo
I got the opportunity to interview Shrihari Sathe via e-mail to find out more about this exciting project! He has been producer on many short films and worked on many features in the past few years, but this is his first feature-length film as producer.
Shrihari met Jaron at grad school at Columbia University's School of the Arts while both were pursuing their Masters of Fine Arts; Jaron's in Writing/Directing and Shrihari's in Producing. Shrihari says, "We'd always talked about working on a project together. He approached me with the idea for Pervertigo and I couldn't put the script down once I started reading it. Thus we formed Team Pervertigo."
I had to ask, why Indy for the location? Since there are not many feature films shot in Indianapolis as compared to New York City or Chicago and since Jaron was born and raised here, it seemed like a great place to come back for his debut feature. Both are very passionate about promoting local arts and artists in Indianapolis and hosted a fundraiser last weekend sponsored by Yats, Sun King Brewery, and Easley Winery among others where 15% of the funds raised were donated to a local arts charity.
They plan to film all over Indianapolis and one of the locations they were able to give away will be the Rivoli theatre on the near east side. "The board of the Rivoli theater is very excited for us to film there," Shrihari says.
Want to know how you can get involved? First and foremost, donations will go a long way with this process and are much appreciated. For those of you who aren't shy, they are still in the casting process for some of the smaller roles and interested actors can e-mail pervertigocasting@gmail.com with their headshot and resume to be considered.
Also, some pivotal locations are still being scouted. The shoot is about two weeks away and they are still in need of apartment interiors, a cabin in the woods, food sponsorship for our shoot etc. Anyone who's interested can contact Matthew Hill, line producer at info@scenestreamvideo.com or 317-506-3205.
Here at Indymojo, we wish both filmmakers the best of luck in this project and I encourage you mojo-ers out there reading this to get involved in some way to support our local artists!
The Circle City Socialites and Race City Rebels roller derby teams got together to raise money for the Special Olympics of Indiana at the 2010 Special Olympics Indiana FedEx Plane Pull Challenge. The event took place at the Old Terminal at the Indianapolis airport and had a new record of 70 teams participating fundraising more than $126,000 in donations. WOW!
Our 20 person team pulled a 147,000 lb. FedEx Boeing 727 a distance of 12 feet in 7.509 seconds and raised over $2300! A big thank you to our donors, especially the two people whose donations got me on the roster for this event (JK and MsDawn)! VERY awesome! It's a fantastic cause and we were so happy to do such a great event.
To get a feel for how much fun we had this year, check out this video scrapbook I put together of a picture slideshow and the live video of us actually pulling the plane taken by Socialite, Sybil Division with my camera. I'm the one with the jammer star on my helmet near the front!
You and me both. I was expecting to be freaked out into nightmares or something. But props have to be given to Ashley Bell who played Nell because apparently she performed this role without any CGI help. That is one flexible young lady.
