WEFUND AUDIENCE WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!

JUGGLING is a 20 minutes short film produced by Film Academy to be shot in Spring 2012. Written by Tim Porter, it will be entered to film festivals worldwide to expose the talent of the innovative 22 yr old filmmaker who is "one to watch" after recently leaving film school.

The budget is £2000 and we have raised £1000 (halfway there) through family, friends and colleagues. Please help us to reach our target in 12 weeks so we can greenlight the production. To help you make a donation, please watch the promo clip and read the plot outline below.

PLOT

Andrew Watson, a 27 year old businessman is carrying an overbearing guilt that is eating away at his very existence. Leading two different lives, he is failing to get a grip on either.

At the root of his problem is finding himself torn between two women; one being his disabled mother who is solely dependent on her son, the other, Jill (a fellow co-worker), who provides Andrew with an opportunity of a possible future of independence. Andrew is conflicted psychologically.

Trying to balance both these lives seemingly puts a strain on both relationships and his working life...

HOW DO I DONATE?

Pledge as little as £5 to the fund. If there is enough support and the target is reached within 12 weeks, we will get in touch and you will receive your rewards when available.

However, if the target is not reached, no money will be taken from you and Juggling will be on the back burner till we raise the full the amount. We hope not, with your support.

Please click the ‘WeFund this project PayPal’ orange button on the top-right of the screen.

Thank you for your kind donation. See you on the inside!

RE: Cast Announcement

Posted on 16/02/2012

We are pleased to announce that cast of Juggling: Tim Porter - Writer, Director and now lead actor of Juggling will be playing the role of Andrew. Developments throughout pre-production and budgetary constraints pushed Tim to make a decision which resulted in him casting his self based on the chemistry between co-star Ina Marie Smith. Smith will be playing the role of Jill. Ina is also currently in rehearsals for "Women of Troy" at the Blue Elephant Theatre in Camberwell. Also in midst of shooting several short films including our production & "Tea Breakdown". The role of Olivia will be played by Yvonne Riley, a seasoned actress who has starred in Ken Loach's LADYBIRD LADYBIRD & also in Kenneth Branagh LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST & finally the role of Andrew's best friend Terry will be played by up and coming actor: Arash Salimi. Arash has starred in several short films and will make his feature film debut in: Moe Town which is shooting later this year. We are pleased with our cast and hope that you as an audience will invest in our characters.
