The Short:

“Lemonade Mafia”

Kiras Organic lemonade dynasty becomes in jeopardy when new comer Shantel Osgood sets up an extremely successful competing pink lemonade stand that encroaches into her territory. It is an all out neighborhood war amongst the young girls in a good-natured battle of wills between competing kid entrepreneurs in this a light-hearted comedy for all ages.

About the Director:

My name is Anya and I am so excited to have this amazing short written by Keith Edie to transition from my rewarding job as an assistant director to my dream career of directing. I have been in the film and television industry for 15 years, some of my more recent projects include “The Mindy Project”, “Angel From Hell", "HBO's The Comeback" and my current show “Blackish”.  I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read about LEMONADE MAFIA and to donate!

How you can help?

•  

• Spread the word! Tell your friends or anyone you think would be interested:

Twitter: #mafiaLemonade

Facebook: Lemonade Mafia

• Donate your time/talent

• Donate your equipment

• If you want to know exactly where your money goes, we have a list (think registry) of all the things we need, and you can sign up to sponsor any of them and pay the vendor directly. (Rentals, hard drives, etc...) 

**Making a film takes time…….you might choose to donate now in preproduction, during the shoot, in post-production, or during the festival run once you've seen the trailer and fall in love with the film. Or maybe you will donate more than once! Every dollar helps until we are done with the festival run. We don't want an expiration date or the donations to be stuck until the end of the campaign. 

How much we need and what we need it for:

We need to raise $15,000 USD to cover the cost of production, plus an additional $3,000.00 for festivals, applications and promotional materials.

• Production: We have a 2 day weekend schedule at the end of June. We plan to shoot the entire script in two days.

• Post-production: we need a colorist, and we need to cover the cost of burning DVDSs, Blu-Rays, and the output of the very expensive DCP.

• Festivals: I want this short to be seen, so we will submit it to festivals. Each festival charges submission fees, plus we will need to mail the screeners, make posters, post cards and other promotional materials. When we get into festivals we will need money to ship the screener.

What do you get for helping Lemonade Mafia come to life? 

First our utmost gratitude for your generosity. It is our intention to put the bulk of the money raised towards the production, with that in mind we did put together some pretty cool perk packages:

Why are we not using a standard crowd-funding site?

We decided to not use an established crowd-funding site because:

• We don't want the donations to be wasted in high fees. (5% plus credit card fee 3-4% ... that adds up quick!) 

• We don't want you to get spam or other ads.
