I am a New York filmmaker and i am finally making my first film. I wrote and directed it and we are casting actors now. It is loosely based off my life and the main character is a black guy who only dates white women. basically the film opens with him involved with three white women (a co-worker he has a secret crush on, a former girlfriend he hooks up with from time to time, and a woman he has been on a few dates with) and some bad advice from his white best friend screws it all up. he then spends the middle of the film with a wigger chick whose a single mom and their love story is the center of the film but there is a twist ending...

here's a behind the scenes video of the actors auditioning for the film...

Good luck with your project dude, I know the movie business can be tricky. Be sure to tell us were/when we can see the finished product.
 
What's the music in the background?

How much did it cost to finance this?
I was doing a documentary a few years ago and the financing for that was a few grand and I didn't have to pay the actors.

Looks interesting, hope it does well for you....
 
to Thump: Thanks. We will premiere it at film festivals around the U.S. next year sometime and I have a contact at Universal Pictures (one of their top writers, he is also Will Smith's cousin) who wants to see it and maybe buy it.


To Dark Knight: the first song is Illegal I song by Velvet Revolver and the second song is "Fatal Attraction" by Conor Maynard (it's a cover of a chris brown song). Conor is a new young british white singer similar to Justin Bieber. I am funding it myself through saving up from my years of directing music videos and commercials.

To Mighty Quinn: That is hilarious LOL

To Curlyblonde: Thanks for the support.

To Kid Rasta: I know what an uphill battle it will be to get films with black male/white female romances green lit in Hollywood. I am working on many scripts and 95% of them are all white casts but two have interracial and both are action films. I will try my best to change that status quo. but this current film will get made no doubt and filming begins in September.


GFunk: Dont hate LOL.
 
Playboy90210,

Let me know when the DVD is available for purchase, on demand rental or digital download. I believe in supporting new talent. Especially, when it helps to normalize BM WW interracial relationships.

Also, PM me your contact info. I write music and I'll send you some mp3's of my stuff. If you like what you hear, you can use my it in your film or I could maybe come up with some specifically for you.

But, above all else, let us know when it comes out so we can support you in the way it counts: with our wallets.
 
If you guys do a NY premier lwt me know Im there in my sunday best fam

And I'll make you the same music offer and Conor Maynard is a beast his covers are crazy love that new single Cant Say No. Been listeninn to him for years
 
Good luck man, hope shit takes off for ya.

Just so you know, if you ever plan to do an interracial porn I'll lend my talent. All four and a half inches of it.
 
of course it will be real. :confused:
