My Million Dollar Movie Dot Com Offically Launches



Producer/Director and Canadian native, Casey Walker launches - My Million Dollar Movie dot com - to help realize his dream of making a feature film. An original twist on Alex Tew's8217;s brilliant business model for his 's8220;Million Dollar Home Page's8221; in which the UK student sold pixels to raise money to go to school, this is the first time that a film is financed by this unique form of fundraising. 's8220;BE A PART OF FILM HISTORY's8221;

Movies aren's8217;t cheap and aren's8217;t easy to finance. Casey developed this concept of democratic fundraising because of the painstaking and extremely lengthy process of financing films through studios and Government institutions. 's8220;I just want to make my movie's8217; states the young director who just turned 30. 's8220;I also want to do it before I's8217;m in my forties!'s8221;

Without the big machine, you can push yourself to tell stories in a way that you normally wouldn'st tell them. With that freedom and lack of pressure, innovators are better positioned to take bigger leaps. Gary Winick, Producer/Director 's8220;Pieces of April's8221; & 's8220;Charlotte's8217;s Web's8221;

Tew's8217;s 's8220;Million Dollar Homepage's8221; raised over a million U.S. Dollars in 5 whirl wind months and Casey intends to achieve the same success with his unique site.

The difference: 's8220;MYMILLIONDOLLARMOVIE.com's8221; gives the public the opportunity to purchase parts of the film for $10/frame and be privy to the process of making the film . Instead of providing a space for small, still images, 's8220;mymilliondollarmovie.com's8221; is a site where the purchase of frames lets people and companies post still images or video sequences for viewers to see. And, like Alex Tew's8217;s pixel page, the buyers can link those frames to their own website for further viewing.

The return: In addition to owning a piece of the film , the buyers will not only receive advertising and website traffic but, in the event that the film turns a profit, they also stand to make a financial return proportional to the number of frames they's8217;ve purchased. And if that wasn's8217;t enough, buyers will also receive a credit of 's8220;Associate producer's8221; on the film 's8217;s final credit roll. Large Volume buyers could also be eligible for executive producer credit and special privileges.

About The Film: The name of the movie is 's8220;FREE FOR ALL BUT YOU's8221;. It's8217;s in the vein of 's8220;There's8217;s Something About Mary's8221;, 's8220;American Pie's8221; and 's8220;Bottle Rocket's8221;. Casey describes the film as 's8220;a pop-culture piece and not an obscure auteur film. Not that I don's8217;t like those types of movies, it's8217;s just not what I want to make. It is a light comedy with a solid premise, strong characters, compelling conflict and sharp, witty dialogue.'s8221; The script will be kept under lock and key until the financing stages. But when pressed for more detail Casey does, however, tell us what the movie is NOT about:

>    It is not your typical boy meets girl story.
>    There are no nude scenes involving animals, S&M, strange machinery or someone's8217;s grandmother in compromising positions
>    It is not about a global crisis in which a former government agent, turned alcoholic must face the demons of his past in order to save the world while trying not to fall off the wagon.
>    There are no ghosts, monsters or crazy hillbillies who like to wear the skin of their victims to Sunday tea.
>    It is not based on historical events and therefore has no frilly costumes.
>    I's8217;m not against violence in movies, but there is none here.

Some may be wondering what is left to put in a movie, but the producers guarantee there are a whole lot of laughs. Once financing is complete Casey's8217;s blog and video podcast will reveal more about the script as well as keep viewers up to date on the further development, production and distribution of the final film! 's8220;Once financing is done I want the site to be a place where I can de-mystify the film making process and explain to people what it takes to make a film.'s8221;

The site has only been up and running for a short time but already several individuals and companies have jumped at the opportunity to buy frames and participate in this exciting new venture.

Don's8217;t miss a chance to 's8220;Be a part of film history's8221;
