DREAM. CREATE. INSPIRE – R250 000
I am Lisa, I’m 19 years old and I’m a AFDA dropout student. I recently lost my mom and granddad, I don’t really know my dad so I rely on my pensioner grandmother. I faced depression and trauma after I lost my mom and grandpa which made it difficult for me to focus in school. My matric year was traumatic and I tried so hard to work but Anxiety had a toll on me.
After I got my matric results I realised I do not qualify to get to university with my bachelor, so I went to AFDA. My grandma took a study Loan to take me to Afda for my first year, but I didn’t qualify to complete my studies due to finances and no bursary approved my applications.
I dropped out of college and I’m currently stranded at home. I decided to start my own production company of which I’ve always wanted to from the moment I stepped into AFDA but I wanted to focus on school first.
Being at home gave me the influence to work something out of being at home and so I decided to continue writing film scripts of which I’m excelling. I’m currently working on 4 scripts, A thriller, romance, sci-fi and a game night show.
My dream is to be like Disney one day, have my channel worldwide that produces my films and shows. Create my own fairytales, princesses and stories. I want to create a different world for kids and teens. I didn’t get my chance to be on create because entering into the film industry in South Africa is really difficult . So my plead to everyone is that please consider my story and find it in your heart to make my company dreams come true.
I don’t have expenses to buy equipment to film these movies nor produce them. I know it’s hard to get in the industry because I went to so many auditions but couldn’t get role due to how I looked.
Doors have been slammed in my face so many times and my dreams is to find raw talents worldwide and create a better reputation of what the entertainment industry should be like. I’d really appreciate donations to fund my production company to buy equipment and have a little budget for at least one film which will be enough to fund the rest of the films. I’m inspired by Dhar Mann.
