Hi! My name is Chloe Vasey, and I am a senior film major at John Brown University in Siloam Springs, Arkansas.

Currently I am in the post-production stages of my senior thesis film entitled "Wasted Time." This is the film that will allow me to graduate with my Bachelor's Degree in May. Production took place through the last half of January, with post-production starting in early February, with the goal of completing the entire process by mid-April.

Making a movie is not cheap. While I am privileged to be able to use gear for free from JBU, there are a lot more rather pricey factors that go into filmmaking. For one, production design. This includes costumes, props, makeup, etc. that create the look of the film. Another thing is feeding the crew that will be helping me create this piece of art. Thankfully, that has already been covered. 

Now, in post-production, expenses are film festival submission fees. As a student filmmaker, the best way for me to network and get word out about this film is to enter it into film festivals. Some submission fees may be $20 while others can be $150. Your help with those fees would be greatly appreciated!

This project is something I am already so proud of, and I cannot wait for everyone to see the finished product. Your generous donation will help me make this film everything I dream it to be.

As a token of gratitude for your gift, if you donate by April 15th, you will receive a credit at the end of "Wasted Time" and will get a formal invitation to the screening of the film. Please provide either your email address to receive your invitation!

If you have any other questions, or simply would just like to discuss this project further, I would be happy to chat! My personal email is [email protected], and my school email is [email protected].

Thank you so much for reading, and for your consideration in contributing to this project. God bless.
