Special Notes from the Filmmakers to Potential Cast/Crew:
This is an Ultra low-budget SAG - basic compensation only - willing to partner with anyone who owns a RED or has inexpensive access to one - as the film is basically set in one location, the shoot will be low-key and collaborative - goal is to have like-minded people to network and enjoy working with - deferred and/or partner compensation is negotiable.
