people are making a 1 second film and you can buy a producer credit by donating at least $1 - money goes to charridy, ofcourse.
be an (associate) producer next to such illustrious names as Stephen Colbert, Steve Coogan, Christina Ricci, Spike Jonze, Charlie Kaufman. and Samuel L. Jackson's daughter, ofcourse.
"The 1 Second Film is a non-profit collaborative animation project that brings together thousands of people around the world as supporters in the hopes to raise money for the Global Fund for Women. The film has over 5,000 producers and counting.
The title derives from the fact that the actual content of the film is just one-second long; animation consisting of 12 large frames (9 ft x 5 ft collaborative paintings). The frames were painted by hundreds of people during a multi-disciplinary event on March 8th, 2001 (International Women's Day). Each of the 12 frames gets filmed twice (on 65 mm film) to create the 24 frames in one-second of film. The one-second of animation is immediately followed by 90-minutes of credits that include a feature-length 'making of' documentary.
The film is being financed entirely by donations. Virtually any individual in the world can purchase a production credit on the film for a minimum of $1.00 (with no maximum). Depending on the amount of money donated the contributor is given credit either as Associate Producer ($1-9.99), Producer ($10-99.99), or Executive Producer ($100 and up). IMDb is listing all of THE 1 SECOND FILM's credits, a major draw for aspiring actors, directors, or producers."
especially the last bit is quite fun, seeing how long the cast page on IMdb is loading at the moment - clickthing
anyways - it's silly, it's a new form of 'vanity publishing', it's a bit of fun, who doesn't like women and global funds, perhaps some of you will join me in being a Film Producer.
