Short Summary

I remember as a kid watching the 1956 version of The Ten Commandments for the first time. The music, visuals and overall story is something that always stuck with me and filled me with wonder.

My name is Isaac Rodriguez, and with over 13 years of experience in the film industry as a writer and director, I’ve had the privilege of making 11 feature-length films across various genres. Each of these projects has not only received  numerous awards but has also reached audiences worldwide through distribution.

For years I made films in the more mainstream genres but as I got older, I wanted to make something that would have a positive impact on peoples lives. I wanted to create something families could watch together.

Your contribution today would mark an important moment in cinematic history, as we embark on the journey to create one of the first-ever feature films dedicated to Ezekiel’s story. Join us in bringing this timeless tale to life and becoming a part of something truly monumental.

 

The Story

The tale of Ezekiel has always held a special place in my heart. For years, it has been a passion project on my mind, one that I believe deserves a rightful place on the silver screen. The narrative of Ezekiel’s trials and extraordinary visions is a compelling saga that begs to be shared with audiences far and wide.

Our film will chronicle Ezekiel’s journey from exile to Babylon, delving into his relentless struggles to save his people, grappling with solitude, and encountering his awe-inspiring visions.

Our film aim is to immerse you in Ezekiel’s world. We hope to transport you alongside him, feeling the weight of his burdens and the intensity of his revelations.

While remaining faithful to the biblical narrative, we’ll infuse minor backstories and characters to enhance the film’s structure. Nevertheless,  deep respect will be paid to the integrity of the original content, ensuring an authentic portrayal of Ezekiel’s story.

 

What We Need & What You Get

Making films is undoubtedly a costly adventure and we’re embarking on a mission to raise $200,000 to ensure our upcoming project reaches its fullest potential. This funding will be used towards securing top-tier professionals for our crew, securing captivating locations, renting essential gear, acquiring authentic costumes, incorporating captivating special effects, and so much more.

A significant portion of our film will unfold at Capernaum Studios, nestled near Forth Worth, Texas—an esteemed location utilized in the production of “The Chosen.”

To express our gratitude to our generous supporters, we’ve picked an array of enticing perks. These include exclusive DVDs and Blu-rays, tickets to our anticipated screening events,  film credits, autographed scripts, and even the thrilling opportunity to be the screen in a role within the film itself!

 

The Impact

By bringing Ezekiel’s narrative to life on screen, we can harness the power of visual storytelling to convey its timeless messages of faith, resilience, and divine guidance to a global audience. This endeavor presents a chance to bridge the gap between ancient scripture and contemporary audiences, creating a deeper appreciation for the wisdom and relevance of biblical teachings.

Let’s embark on this cinematic journey with dedication and passion, weaving together the threads of storytelling, artistry, and faith to craft a film that resonates with hearts and minds across cultures and generations. Through our collective efforts, we can ensure that Ezekiel’s story leaves an indelible mark on the landscape of both cinema and spirituality, enriching lives and inspiring souls for years to come.

 

Risks & Challenges

Filmmaking is a dynamic and demanding craft, filled with uncertainties and obstacles. However, with the completion of over 10 feature films across a spectrum of genres and budgets, we’ve amassed a wealth of invaluable insights and strategies. These lessons serve as our guides, enabling us to navigate the complexities of production, ensuring that our projects are not only delivered on time but also within the confines of budgetary constraints.

 

Other Ways You Can Help

Even if contributing financially isn’t possible for you at the moment, your support in spreading the word about our project would be incredibly valuable. By sharing news of our film and helping us reach a wider audience, you play a vital role in bringing our vision to fruition. Every share, like, and mention helps to amplify our message and increase visibility for the film.
