Just a few days ago I read on 'Gothic Charm school' that there's a new movie in the making: My Summer as a Goth.
I'm not trying to copy any one else's posts on this, I am just posting this for my interest and as general information.
The more people post about this movie, the more others will know about it, so please write a post on this movie, everyone!
My Summer as a Goth is about a 16 year old girl, Joey, who visits her grandparents for the summer and ends up meeting and falling in love with local Goth boy, Victor.
Throughout the summer, Victor and his friends help to change her from an average teen girl into a Goth, and this portrayal is quite good in my opinion, as Joey is a 'realistic Goth' character.
The film itself is about making friends, falling in love for the first time, changing your way of life for the one you love and finding yourself.
This film is undoubtedly going to be good, as Jillian Venters is the Goth consultant, as such you know that little to nothing can go wrong here, (In other words, negative stereotypes about Goths may be lessened a bit by this film.)
Note: Watch the promo video for production here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1759327397/my-summer-as-a-goth?ref=live
-And for those who've seen the Gothic Charm School videos, the music is charmingly familiar. :D
But unfortunately the producers need more money in order to film it in Summer of 2011. But, if you pledge towards the project, there may be rewards coming your way.
If you pledge:
$5: You will get a shout out on their facebook, twitter and blog.
$10: An "Oh my Goth" postcard and an "I heart Goth" button.

Note: Somebody correct me if I'm wrong on these statistics.
