"Join Our Film Revolution: 'Finals' Kickstarter - Be Our Hero!"

[Los Angeles, October 30, 2023] - Passionate filmmaker Mya Baker, the driving force behind the "Shoot Films Not People" brand, has always believed in the transformative power of storytelling. Now, she's seeking your support to bring an essential narrative to life through a groundbreaking short film, "Finals." With a Kickstarter campaign that launched on October 30th, Mya Baker invites the world to become part of a movement that champions change and challenges the devastating impact of gun violence.

In the aftermath of a school shooting, "Finals" delves deep into the harrowing journey of a troubled teenager, Sullivan Lands, as he grapples with isolation, despair, and a chilling descent into darkness. This poignant story sheds light on the devastating impact of a single, irreversible act, creating a narrative that is both heart-wrenching and illuminating.

Mya Baker, a passionate filmmaker and the creative force behind "Shoot Films Not People," is on a mission to use the art of filmmaking and the influence of fashion to cultivate social advocates for change. The brand's ethos is centered on inspiring transformation, and "Finals" is an embodiment of this commitment.

"When you support 'Finals,' you're not just funding a film; you're joining a movement for a safer world," says Mya Baker. "We believe that film has the power to inspire change and amplify the voices of those affected by gun violence."

The Kickstarter campaign, seeks to raise $15,000 for the production and post-production of "Finals." There are seven diverse perks available for supporters, ranging from $10 to $1,000, allowing backers to choose their level of involvement. Exciting incentives include heartfelt shout-outs, movie downloads, premiere tickets, and even the opportunity to become an executive producer of this vital project. Additionally, for those wishing to make a larger donation, there is the option of utilizing a fiscal sponsor for potential tax benefits.

Mya Baker's vision for "Finals" extends beyond the film itself; it is a beacon of hope, a call to action, and a testament to the power of storytelling. By supporting this project, you're contributing to a narrative that will undoubtedly touch hearts, drive conversation, and inspire change.
