Your support at this pivotal moment carries real weight. It initiates the cultural momentum needed to complete Unfaded: a presentation cut designed to unlock further funding, secure distributor interest, and preserve Gary Heery’s legacy with the cinematic depth it deserves. At this stage, one committed patron shapes the path more than any campaign or press.

Where the Film Stands

Principal filming is complete. A strong narrative structure is in place. We are now entering post-production: offline editing, sound design, and colour grade. This phase will shape the film’s emotional and visual authority, allowing us to create a compelling presentation cut for partners, festivals, and industry review. Your contribution will directly fund this work.

What We’re Offering

Patron Status begins at $20,000.
You will be publicly acknowledged as a Founding Patron in the film’s credits, press materials, and at key events. You’ll also be invited to select private screenings and conversations as the film nears release.

Your name will be permanently connected to a cultural work of lasting significance — as one of the few individuals who made it possible.

Founding Patrons are not financial stakeholders, their legacy is cultural, not commercial. As an additional thank you, Founding Patrons receive a signed silver gelatin print that features in the film.
