My name is Johnathan Mueller, and I’m the director of J&M Productions and the filmmaker behind Welcome to the Game >ClintsChapter — a dark, story-driven psychological thriller that has been in the works for the past year. We’re aiming to premiere the film this January, and we’re thrilled to finally bring it to audiences.

This project has been an incredible collaboration, filmed across St. Charles, Algonquin, West Dundee, Elburn, and DeKalb, with talented local cast and crew helping bring this story to life. Now we’re asking for your help to cover final post-production costs so we can finish the film and premiere it the way it deserves.

Funds raised will go toward:
🎵 Composing – Finalizing our haunting, original score.
🔊 Audio Cleanup & Mixing – Ensuring every line, effect, and ambient tone is immersive and professional.
💿 DVD Production – Creating physical copies for supporters, cast, and crew.
🎥 Theatre Rentals – Securing venues for premiere screenings in our community.
