firefly124Those of you who follow me on Twitter have probably already seen this RT'd a few times. As things are down to the wire, however, I decided to try a signal boost on LJ, IJ, and DW.
Casimir Effect is an independent film being produced in Cardiff, Wales. The official synopsis is here, and the nutshell version is "Casimir Effect is a story of unrequited love set on a backdrop of temporal paradox. Dr. Alice Sharpe has a choice to make, stay with her true love and risk the collapse of the space time Continuum, or take more drastic measures to ensure all of creation isn’t erased." Gareth David-Lloyd is co-starring as Dr. Robert Cameron, which is how I heard of it in the first place.
As an indie short film, they're utilizing various types of what's called "crowd funding" or "mob funding," from direct merchandise sales on the site to eBay (though it looks like all auctions have finished) to straight-up donations to either the main budget (still has £286 to go) or the "anti-noodle fund" meant to handle any last-minute emergencies so they don't have to feed cast and crew cheap noodles to cope (£920 short of goal). Anyone who makes a purchase or donation of £10 or more will be listed in the credits.
If you'd like to be a contributing part of an indie scifi film, please either check out their products page (if nothing else, the theme song is really cool and only £1 to download) or donate via Paypal, either at the site or by means of the widgets below.
(I hope these work on IJ and DW, as the widget code-creator only had room to put one source website. If you want to donate and are having trouble using these, please go directly to http://www.casimireffectfilm.com .)
