I have a camcorder, mic, tripod, and lighting kit that all are welcome to use.
I would always be interested in offering feedback on scripts and early edits of footage, and offering moral support.
I can help and be crew on a set.
I can spread the word of others projects if they need crew or cast. Or promotion in general
And I would be interested in being interviewed for any documentaries.
I have a car if anyone needed to use it!
Here is the link I mentioned in class. I believe you only have to pay a small one time fee and credit appropriately.

Here’s a few thoughts on it. I’ve begun pre-production and have some attachments. This was my one page intent form from my meeting.
Working Title: An-Emotion (like animation and emotion combined)
This project will be a short narrative film that I will write, direct, edit, and animate over. I plan on having 3 to 4 main actors and 4 or 5 locations. The film would hopefully be about 20 minutes long. I plan on having the project written, storyboarded, and have all preproduction done by the end of summer. With filming in the first week or two of school and then the remaining time for editing and animating.
The idea of the film is to parody those that are centered on love triangles and the melodrama that comes with them. The idea is that many people will have a simply animated aura around themselves that displays their emotions and states. For example red throbbing when feeling enamored, coloring in the eyes black when angry. Simple animation that is possible with after effects. I have done very minor animations before and plan on learning more during the summer. I will shoot the actors and then draw onto each frame individually. I believe that I have the time to do this because the schedule I’ve set up for myself has a lot of free time.
It will feature a young person in a non-college setting (shooting somewhere off campus likely with college actors) who, along with this type of strange stick figure/aura that I will be animating, will be nursing an obsession with their love interest only to have them taken by someone else. Many attempts to gain the affection of this person will be shot down until a final battle between the protagonist with their aura/stick figure who represents their feelings, and the antagonist (person who took their love interest) with their aura/figure

Please give me feedback! I’ve been working on my animating as well. Thanks and looking forward to working with everyone. If anyone has info on crews and actors I’d love to know.
EDIT: Rough draft of script and story boards added in.
