I'm listening to: "Living is Simple" by Switchfoot

Many people have wondered what is Where You Are: Project Swaziland and how is it so different than any other film project. Well below is the basic version of the film proposal that we are sending out to people who are interested. It explains exactly what we are doing. and we really want your support. 

This project, Where You Are: Project Swaziland is an amazing opportunity to make a strong impact on our world.  What excites our team is the ability to offer something more than just a film. 

Below are the projects three components:

1.  A Day Camp for children in Swaziland will be conducted to just spread love to children who are in need.

2. A Documentary of the overall need in Swaziland will be made as the day camp runs and as the film is being shot, to show not only the need of Swaziland but also its beauty. 

3. A Feature Film.  Upon returning to the states, C&I Studios will finish production of the film and release it to film distributors, film festivals, and theaters.  The documentary as well will be placed into post production and be release to film festivals and film distributors. 

We believe that without a miracle, no change is overnight.  But we know that from the day camp, the documentary and the feature film, we can plant a seed in the average persons heart to at least consider the possibility that we all can make a difference.  We do not think that this project will instantly change the situations in Swaziland, but we know that it is a start. 

Synopsis

Imagine living the perfect life, but inside you were wishing to be someone else.   Shawn Hunter, a business executive, travels to  Swaziland Africa to work on a 'corporate image' commercial for his firm.  While Shawn is in Swaziland, he unknowingly falls in love with the children of the village and becomes surprisingly passionate about bringing awareness and change to Swaziland's largest     problem; HIV/AIDS. Upon Shawn's hesitant return to the States, he is met with his old fast-paced lifestyle, high-profile business      commitments, the woman of his dreams, and his loving family. Shawn is torn between trying to live a normal successful life again and dreaming about the children in Swaziland and changing their world.  This is a story of two worlds colliding with one man caught deeply in between.
