You Can Produce A Movie With Alfonso Ribeiro!

Alfonso Ribeiro is a $10.00 "Producer" on The 1 Second Film (2007). You can get yourself listed as an Associate Producer, Producer, or Executive Producer. The film is, as its title implies, 1 second long (24 frames of animation) with 90 minutes of end credits (a Making Of documentary will run alongside the credits). The film is being financed entirely by donations, with all proceeds going to the Global Fund for Women. It will have a one-time theatrical screening in 2007, and will eventually be released on DVD. More information about the film can be found at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_1_Second_Film
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0448975/ (warning: very large page)

As you can see from those websites, this isn't a scam. In fact, several celebrities have already donated money to be listed in the credits. Most of them didn't even donate "big bucks." Take a look at the "celebrity producers" list. If you're curious to see a list of EVERYONE who's donated money to the film/cause, check out these pages:

Associate Producers
Producers & Executive Producers

What you will receive for your minimum $1.00 donation:

* Your name listed in the 70mm film's credits.
* Your name listed on the film's website (see the two links above).
* An optional link from your name to a website of your choice.
* Free business card(s) (see this page for more info).

Because you will be listed in the credits of an authentic motion picture, you would be eligible to be included in the Internet Movie Database (IMDB). (Your eligibility starts as soon as the 1 Second Film folks add you to the list on the website, you don't have to wait until the film is released next year.) Inclusion into the IMDB is entirely optional. It is not part of the donation/credit, but is instead an added bonus. It can take several months for you to be added to the IMDB.

I just bought myself a credit (and a few for some family and friends), and I thought many of you would like to as well. If you ever wanted to help a good cause, get your name listed in the credits among many big name stars, and get your own page on the IMDB, this is your chance!
