SUMMARY:No More A Victim\, campaign closing
DESCRIPTION:NO MORE A VICTIM is a short film\, written by Tanya M. Wheeler that will be produced and directed by Tanya in 2024. It is about a Victim and her Killer\, but it aims to subvert the audience’s expectations. \nFilmmaking is expensive and I am lucky enough to have an amazing and willing cast and crew who have faith in my ability to deliver. But I still have to feed them 🙂 \nThis is an ambitious project that requires 7-8 days of shooting\, plus a number of complex locations and transport.
