Islands' smoke alarm film signals life-saving opportunity for sponsors

Orkney Islands Films is a non-profit making organisation which makes micro-budget movies in the Orkney area, giving people the opportunity to learn about digital film making.

They are collaborating with the Highlands and Islands Fire and Rescue Service in a Community Partnership Initiative, making a short drama which highlights the importance of a fully maintained smoke alarm.

Once the drama has been completed they intend to have it classified by the British Board of Film Classification for both theatrical release and DVD release. They will then 'gift' the film to the Highlands and Islands Fire and Rescue Service so they can use the drama in one of their campaigns.

Orkney Islands Films is looking for sponsors to cover the costs of travel, accommodation and food for actors and crew, buying props and classification from the BBFC. The reason they need to cover the cost of the actors' and crews' travel and accommodation, etc. is that they are based on a small island and the actors and crew will have to stay on the island for a two week shoot.

"The amount we are looking for is £3,500. None of the actors, crew or any member of Orkney Islands Films will receive payment for their work on the drama. The funds are to cover the cost of expenses. We do not want to ask the HIFRS to fund the drama as it will take away much needed funds from other areas.

"In return for sponsorship, sponsors will have a credit and their company logo placed at the end of the completed movie, as well as a credit on our website and the knowledge that they are not only helping a new, non-profit organisation gain a reputation in the film making industry, but also their sponsorship may save someone's life".
