Make Christian's Movie: SPHINX

SPHINX

CONTRIBUTION LEVELS

IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE IN THE WORLD YOU ARE, WHO YOU ARE OR WHAT YOU DO. WITH EVEN A SMALL CONTRIBUTION YOU WILL BE PART OF THIS FILM AND BE COMPLETELY INVOLVED (with updates, access to our secure website for detailed info and in the end your name will appear on the credits)

This page is for smaller contributions. If you are interested in making a substantial contribution and coming on board as a Producer, click here. Should you want to become an investor, please click here.

All financial contributions, no matter how small, are useful. The most likely way this site will raise the money I need is if lots of people give small amounts. If you are generous enough to give me money for SPHINX, you will be thanked in the end credits and receive my personal undying gratitude. To see how the money will be used, go to the What We Need page.

If you give more than US$50, there will be a couple of quirky benefits.

* The credit will be "Special Thanks". This will be a list of everyone who actually helped in the production of Sphinx but isn't credited elsewhere. The font size of this list will be larger than that of the "Thanks To" list. This list will appear before the "Thanks To" list in the end credits.
* Your "Special Thanks" credit will be included on the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) Sphinx listing. This means you will have your own personal listing on the IMDb to which you can add photos, biographies, trivia, etc. If you don't know about the IMDb you should immediately go to www.imdb.com, it is the best and most comprehensive movie website on the net.

We are hoping to introduce another contribution level, around the $300 – $1000 point which may include a physical gift of some sort. If you have already donated this much by then, you will automatically qualify for whatever bonus we are offering.

You can nominate someone else's name to credit, e.g. you can give someone a credit as a gift. Or possibly even be a background talent in the movie or have someone be a background talent in the movie.

Donations will be treated cumulatively and credits can be upgraded. This means that if you give $20 now and then in three weeks give another $30, your credit will change from "Thanks To" to "Special Thanks To", etc.

"ONCE THE FILM IS FINISHED

With the materials and films shown and linked on this website you can see what we can do with only a few thousand dollars. Imagine what we can do with the proposed $ 150.000. AND YOU WOULD BE PART OF THIS MOVIE PROJECT.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I MADE THE CONTRIBUTION:

We will launch a private secure website where you 'as the contributor' will get a USERNAME and PASSWORD. The site will show the exact progress of the project. You will be informed about the stages, get first information and pictures about what is going on with the film. As contributor you will also be able to see who is involved and we will most likely post first clips on this new website. In addition you will also be added to a mailing list that sends out regular updates on the project.

ESTIMATES: We are looking to start production in summer 2008 with filming in fall of 2008 and editing in winter 2008. We will do our best to finish the entire project by spring/summer 2009. After that we are planning a premiere where you will be invited.
