Hello:
This is the biggest thing I've done in regards to the "arts." And I need your help and social media status.
FOLSOM FOREVER director Mike Skiff died of cancer from HPV. He spent the last few months of his life fighting to bring awareness and have childen vacinated and to get funding for trial drugs.
His life was prolonged by a 1 1/2 and a half due to these trial drugs and his husband Tony is grateful for that time.
Mike is no longer here to bring awareness. I want to do what I can, in his honor to raise monies.
I have an original song by the wonderful singer Tom Goss, who has donated his time to record it. Now, I want to make a music video.
For those who know me, I am great in the audience but don't have the craftsmanship to make a video. But time is ticking as I need a FINAL VIDEO for Mike's memorial at the end of June.
The great guys from Eagle have donated their space June 3- details and time to come. I just wanted to get the date in your mind as I need help.
I have a concept n mind that mostly would need the club space of the Eagle.
I am throwing this out now in hopes to get in in your mind and calendar. I need behind the scenes people of course but in front of the camera - I NEED YOUR CAMEO appearance - dressed in drag, bearware or leather!
Here's what I need:
TALENT
Actor 1: Big buff black man who has leather attire
Actor 2: Cubish and/or tattooed man who is more average bod and petite
Actor 3: Drag queen nurse
Actor 4: Doctor - likely cast already by the real doctor who will fly down for the video!!!!!
Extras: YOU - I know I am asking some very busy people with tons of social media followers PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come and make a cameo. My visiion has it that this video will get more views and hopefully more opportunities to raise money if I get YOU and your 5K or 10K followers to watch it because you are in it. Your moment will be quick but there. Think of yourself as Alfred Hitchcock who was in every one of his movies for a moment. I'd love for you to come in drag, leather or bear attire - whatever makes you be you. I NEED YOUR HELP AND SOCIAL MEDIA!!
Do RSVP so I ensure I have enough people or not too many to avoid a safety hazzard.
CREW
Co-director/editor: (I have some in mind I am asking but I am fighting time): This person will help see my visiion come to the screen and likely will be the editor and know the lighting people
Videographer: Work with the director and brings the equipment
Lighting: Hope to find someone who can help in this area so we ensure everyone is seen!
Costumes; Yours!!!
LOCATIONS
Eagle: 80% of the video will be in the Eagle
Doctor's Office; Any ideas places we can use?
Hallway to Doctors Office
Atop Twin Peaks (outside location)
ANY HELP YOU GIVE IS APPRECIATED AND A DONATION OF YOUR TIME. IT WILL HOPEFULLY BRING AWARENESS AND MONIES TO HPV.
END RESULT: A video with a call to action and with your presence and social media following, more will watch and hopefully donate or spread the word to get young teens vaccinated.
I can thank you in the end credits if you have a website to promote but as someone who has donated in the past, we all know these credits aren't often viewed.
THIS IS JUST TO GET THE IDEA AND DATE IN YOUR HEAD. IF YOU DON'T WANT UPDATES PLEASE JUST DELETE THE GROUP. I DON'T WANT TO BOTHER ANYONE.
Please write to me directly if you have can help with any of the roles above or invite YOUR friends who can help.
Some of you from out of town - I doubt you can make it but thought you might have local contacts who can. Some I know where very close with Mike so wanted to make you aware as well...I can help with a hotel deal if anyone needs...sorry I am not rich enough to cover the costs.
THANK YOU FOR READING! A lot to say in a 140 or character less world.
