In this version, we'll combine a few effects and fun, but the biggest difference will be at the end, when Neo wakes up into the real world. Instead of being in a battery chamber, he's in a tea cup, and the real world is really something out of Alice In Wonderland.Morpheous becomes the Cheshire cat, Trinity becomes the white rabbit, Apoch becomes the Madd Hatter, and Neo becomes Alice. This means that there will be a day of intense makeup.We will try to have this all wrapped up in 2 days of shooting. If it goes over, schedules will be coordinated and pay adjusted at the rate of $12/hr + time an a half for overtime.This is a low budget short produced by storyteller BC Crow.As a writer, BC Crow is striving to expand his skill at storytelling from the written word to the visual. This short film is the first in a long series of shorts meant to imitate over 30 movies throughout the last century. BC Crow will be working toward mimicking style, craft, effects, and other key aspects that helped define many great movies in an attempt to develop his skill at cinematic storytelling. So while he is not an official student of film, this is essentially a student film, but on his own terms.Participation in this short film does not guarantee future roles in any projects produced by BC Crow.
