What lengths would you go to for family? For your child? Would you kill? Would you endanger the lives of others you love? Or would they stop you? Hold you back? And when you are old and gray and all those you loved are gone, buried. What then? Would you take up arms and seek justice; vengeance?
And what of the unintended consequences? What happens when in your quest for blood you take the life of a loved one of another? What of their pain? Their justice?
This is the place where Angelo Morello finds himself. A man, whose daughter was brutally taken from him and his wife 25 years ago. With the passing of his beloved wife Rose; Angelo has no one left to fear for. To protect. To hold him back. He finally sets out to confront those responsible and exact his justice. But many unanswered questions remain. Who will live? Who will die?
Please take a look at the Indiegogo page for our short film project One Foot in the Grave – a live-action dramatic action thriller. My name is Dave Borges. I’m the co-writer / director of One Foot in the Grave, and like many of you I’ve been dreaming about making films for as long as I can remember. I have been involved in a number of film and web series productions over the past ten years in various capacities from director, writer to editor and I have written and directed two seasons of the action/comedy web series Clean Livin’ as well as a few short films.
We’ve been developing this project for a number of months now. The process initially began with collecting images and references that interested and engaged us. This kicked-off a long spell of story development, many brains were stormed, ideas conjured, discarded, then reworked and whiskeys consumed until we had a really strong engaging script to work with.
From there we’ve been expanding on our story, developing our characters and creating a richly detailed world to place them into. This pushed us into creating the storyboard animatic in the video above. It was a chance for us to begin visual development of the film, set a mood/style and start getting our hands dirty. It was a great process to go through, and it’s gotten us really thrilled at what we can achieve with the real live-action film!
We’re incredibly excited about the cast of characters we have gather to help us to get this film into production. Please take a moment to share our campaign with friends and family to help us reach our goal. Thank you! www.indiegogo.com
