Support our independent film

Even a six-minute short has a surprising number of expenses (with no guarantee of reimbursement): audiovisual equipment and supplies, studio time, musicians, workers compensation insurance (required by California, where Perry Chen is a resident), and more. It takes festival submission fees, travel, postage and other expenses to show the film at film festivals and schools. Several noteworthy entities have already donated, but as of this writing, we are still operating at a loss. All donations are greatly appreciated, and will be acknowledged with thanks on our website.

If you would like any additional information about the short, our expenses, or benefits for donors, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your consideration.

Donors have a few choices in how to give:

Mail a check directly to VAMP Productions

Your check to VAMP Productions will ensure that 100% of your donation will go directly to the filmmakers. Please note that this is considered a gift, not an investment or a charitable donation. Checks may be mailed to:
