Making a BL Movie

RedTopaz January 9, 2019 11:51 pm

Hey, guys and gals! So, I'm making a BL short film that is loosely based on an actual BL series that I first read on this site. (Ah, memories ▰˘◡˘▰)

I'm making it with my own money, so I decided to do some crowdfunding to pick up the slack! We have less than TWO DAYS left on the campaign and we're at over 60% of our goal! So close!

If you've got the spare change, we can really use any amount! But I totally get it if things are tight ~_^. If you like the story, you can also help a lot by sharing the crowdfunding page with friends and on social media. That would be AMAZING!

After we make it, I'm planning on sending to film festivals and possibly selling to a distributor.

This community is the best! Since the idea started here, I thought it was fitting to at least share about it here as well. If you're an avid reader, you can probably guess which BL were the biggest influences, too (⌒▽⌒).

THANK YOU, everyone! Let's spread The Way of the Fujo/danshi far and wide~.

    I had the same thought. It's very reminiscent of Moritat.

    I hope she give the author and the manhwa or manga she read, recognition for inspiring the movie.

    Definitely influenced by Moritat. I loved the idea of VR induced amnesia. It's deviated pretty wildly from that premise, but that's where the original inspiration came from. It was such a great read. I'm definitely going to list it in the credits.

    Releasing online on Vimeo and YouTube in May 2019! We're filming in late January. One of the supporter rewards is you get a digital copy before anyone else, too.

    I loved Moritat and it definitely had an influence, most obviously in the amnesia/technology/mystery element. The final script isn't much like Moritat anymore, but reading that BL definitely kicked off the original spark!
