Production partners wanted

Unpaid (Non-Union Only)

I have this lean, taut suspense script that can be produced on low/no budget conditions, plus a few thousand dollars of my own money to invest.
I'm looking for one or two serious-minded people to join me in a limited partnership to produce this indy feature in on of two ways: you can either match me with the same amount of money I'm putting down, or you can provide the things we'll need to make this happen (filmstock, locations, food.) The more you can produce the more points/shares you'll earn of the movie, which will become money once the movie's sold to a distributor.
