I'm very excited to announce that I have a new project in the works, the first clip of which you can view below!
The film is called 'DAD', and is a documentary on my eccentric father, Michael Bacon, who spins truly bizarre tales of his life spent as an acid dropping Navy Chief, rebel rousing Bart Police Officer, and wild man of telegraph avenue in the 1960's.
This is an important film for me in many regards. Firstly, of course, the subject matter is very close to my heart. As you might have guessed, I was a weird kid, and am quite lucky that my father was keen to indulge my interests in horror films, art, and loud rock music when most parents would have called the school councilor. He's also a fascinating story teller, and within my friend group, some of the tales of his life have passed into legend!
As well, this is my first attempt at a web series. A new clip of the film will be uploaded once a month, containing a different story, or stories. However, the arch of the piece makes it so that once the film is all uploaded, it can also be viewed as a single piece.
You can view the teaser I've put together here:
I am also on the lookout for possible investors in the project. The film was shot last winter/spring, but since my move down to Los Angeles, I have been unable to finish logging in all the footage.
Anyone who wishes to contribute to the project will receive a prominent producer credit at the end of each episode, as well as a free T-Shirt (check them out here: SWAG).
I only need to raise $250, and anything helps!
