He’s always WORKING because he’s always AUDITIONING! 🎬🔥 Saturday auditions with the Southeast-famous Jay Bogdanowitsch! This guy stays ready, keeps putting himself in the game, and always brings the goods when that camera starts rolling.

There’s a reason we see so much of @thejaybog — keep ’em coming, partner! 🤠

It’s crunch time: we only have 10 days left in our campaign for “Cinderella’s Curse”! 👑🩸🦎🏰

📈 We have a ways to go to reach our goal, and need to hit 80% to get any of the pledged funds. We have some exciting perks including: exotic animal meet-and-greets, exclusive stickers, producer/special thanks credits on IMDb, and an invite to the film’s virtual premiere with a Q&A!

🎥 Filmmaker friends: if I’ve ever worked on one of your sets for free in the past, please consider pledging and giving me some retroactive gas money!

Anything helps, even $5!

Some free ways you can help:
- Share the campaign and this video
- Follow us on Seed & Spark

💚 Make a pledge today and help make our ambitious indie short a reality! We have an incredible, multi award-winning team on board that deserves to see their vision fulfilled.

Something is coming.

Something you’ve never seen before.
Something you were never supposed to see.

And by the time you realize what’s standing in front of you…
it may already be too late.
