Sleeping Bear, the filmmaker’s path to salvation

The Sleeping Bear – official movie trailer from Richard Cameron White on Vimeo.

Uninspired, 20 something construction worker, Michael Bradley Jr., finds himself caught in a love triangle between his only friend and a pastor’s daughter after accepting her offer to escape Detroit and take a trip to their cottage in breathtaking Northern Michigan …

The Sleeping Bear is a low budget indie movie being funded outside any major studios, by RCW Pictures, and by the generosity of contributors who believe in the script, the filmmakers, and the actors involved. Almost the entire cast and crew of The Sleeping Bear met in film school or shortly thereafter, as interns and assistants in Los Angeles, New York, or Michigan.

You’ll recognize a dozen settings, and moments, from northern Michigan in this film.

Support this venture, and help them release the movie, at the film’s website, on their Facebook page, or at their Kickstarter page. As of now, they’re almost 40 percent of the way there.
