Another Amazing Kickstarter (BLACK SHORE a short film, stars Matthew Steer & Gemma Whelan by WHITE RABBIT —Kickstarter) has been published on http://crowdmonsters.com/new-kickstarters/black-shore-a-short-film-stars-matthew-steer-gemma-whelan-by-white-rabbit-kickstarter/

A NEW KICKSTARTER IS LAUNCHED:

Four years since she vanished, Ben’s wife, Ailsa has reappeared. She has seemingly been trapped within a time loop. Ben’s confusion is only deepened when she reveals that the recurring symbol he has been seeing is actually a signal, forewarning him of the arrival of ‘The Machine’. As time and reality begin to break down, Ben must unravel the secrets of Black Shore, figure out the mystery of what has happened to Ailsa and protect his son Michael from the unknown menace.

    A feeling of suspense and horror permeates Black Shore as we uncover the mystery of Ailsa’s disappearance. This feeling is only accentuated by a deranged, down the rabbit hole experience and the realisation, that this is not just about a missing person but about something more sinister.

Ben and ‘The Machine’ Concept

The film will have a bleak, realistic look and corroded feel, set during the middle of winter, in the cold, deserted, seaside town of Black Shore.

  We have managed to pull a lot of favours already, so many of the usual big expenses like editing, post production and sound design are not going to be too expensive. Also much of the camera equipment is being supplied by our Director of Photography Zoran. But we still need to raise enough money to cover the major filming costs, such as location hire, cast and crew, lighting, art department, wardrobe, transport, insurance and food.

The other 20k will be raised through a combination of self-funding, private funding and film grants.

    The bleak windswept English coast has been a breeding ground for folklore, myth, and eccentricity for centuries. Coastal towns tend to be a bit strange. Black Shore is no different. A small village, made up of few houses, a beachfront promenade, a fairground and a lighthouse and diner overlooking the bay.

The diner sits, boarded up, abandoned on the promenade. A lighthouse towers behind it, casting a long shadow out to the water. Further along the coast the town’s main street stretches off with houses dotted on either side into the distance. A few shops line the promenade down to the sandy beachfront. A funfair, shut for the season, marks the end of the shops.

We plan on filming in and around the funfair rides, beaches and caravan parks of Selsey in West Sussex on the south coast of England during the winter season. An area where Grant spent much of his childhood.
