Time Apart, is a family drama about twin sisters, who've been estranged for five years, coming home with their respective families for their father's funeral. An emotional rollercoaster ensues when their mother dies the day after the funeral. A dark family secret is revealed and broken relationships, from years of matriarchal abuse, start the process of healing. 

The screenplay is based on real people and events. 

The funds will be used to compensate technical staff. Production is scheduled for July 2024. As the writer/director, I have the cast is in place, (working on deferred contracts,) the locations are secured, (primary location is the home pictured in the gallery,) and the Director of Photography, who comes with 4 Black Magic Cameras, shooting in 6K, and all the necessary sound equipment., has been hired. The actors will wear concealed body mics, the four cameras allow for three angles of every scene, (to give the action more fluidity, to control continuity, and to expedite the shooting schedule,) and the fourth camera is for the lighting designer to be one step ahead setting the lights for each subsequent scene. Add to all that an amazing Composer/Sound Designer and my dream team is going to make this project something really special.   

To bring the production home, I still need to hire a lighting designer, an editor, (I’m a Final Cut Pro editor but my setup can’t handle 4K.) Normally, twenty-five thousand dollars wouldn’t come close to covering those positions, but my career connections in film & video come with willing and super supportive professionals. Getting this financial help would be a game-changer.  Your investment in this film will help us all realize the stuff that dreams are made of.
