Our team knows how to tell a compelling story with stand out characters while creating a beautiful, captivating film on a modest budget and schedule.\u0026nbsp;After wrapping the short film, we knew there was more to these characters and their journey, and that we had something really special \u0026amp; unique in our hands.\u0026nbsp;\"While it is a visually stunning piece of art, it is also filled with heart and inspiration. It is a message in chasing your dreams and following your passions when even your heart is conflicted. A message that we all need from time to time.\"--Gina Marie Rodriguez, Filmmaker, Westfield International\u0026nbsp;Film\u0026nbsp;Festival Founder\"Without question, the best part for me was definitely the chemistry between the leads, which articulates growth and depth from the very beginning. The acting transcends the quality of fiction for two lived-in characters who are illustrated with such personality.” -The Film Freak\"It moved me in so many ways.\"-Stephanie Bast, Broadway actress \u0026amp; singer“This short left me wanting more. From the nostalgia she captures in what Ohio really is, to the on-screen chemistry between her and the other lead; I felt like I was watching a blockbuster hit.\"--Ryan Weiss, Host of Made To Motivate Popculture Podcast\"Escaping Ohio is a rom-com that hearkens back to movies like Clueless and To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, while attempting to break the formulaic mold of typical movies in this genre.\" -Akronist.com\"I kept wanting more!\"-Late Fee CinemaSynopsisIt’s the summer between high school graduation and the rest of their lives in a small town in Akron, Ohio, where best friends, Sam \u0026amp; JJ, were born and raised. While JJ is excited to start the life he has planned, Sam is excited to have the world at her fingertips, which starts by getting the hell out of Ohio. Sam has been offered a full ride scholarship to a local college, which everyone reminds her is a great opportunity, but she’s afraid that if she doesn’t escape now, she never will. Her heart has called her to apply to a writing internship in California, which she soon lands. But when JJ finds out his best friend is thinking of leaving, he dares her that he can prove why Ohio is worth sticking around for.Taken aback by Ohio’s charm- and JJ’s, Sam begins to realize there is beauty in the subtleties and ordinariness when it’s spent with someone special. Torn between a life of love with her best friend and pursuing her desire to live an adventurous life and realize her full potential, Sam struggles to make a decision as she tries to resist society’s notion that we must have it all figured out.The feature-length script\u0026nbsp;was workshopped in the\u0026nbsp;Sundance Institute, where\u0026nbsp;Jessica revised the script\u0026nbsp;one-on-one with a Sundance\u0026nbsp;filmmaker.The short film has been selected for the prestigious Montclair Film Festival, will be screening at the AMC in Time Square as part of the Big Apple Film Festival, and was a Semi-Finalist for the Oscar-qualifying Flickers' Rhode Island International Film Festival. DistributionWe will be seeking to premiere the film at a top-tier festival, with the plan\u0026nbsp;to finish the film in time to submit to Sundance Film Festival in 2022\u0026nbsp;for a January 2023 premiere. Other possible premiere venues include SXSW, Slamdance,\u0026nbsp;TIFF, Tribeca, Cannes, or Berlin. These are festivals that offer the best possibility for a distribution deal.We will be taking around the Escaping Ohio short film before then to build up an audience \u0026amp; excitement for the feature film while making more connections with sales agents and distribution companies. We have a huge advantage, for while many filmmakers take their short films to festivals to their feature developed, we will already have our feature film completed and will be in a better position to approach these connections at festivals.\u0026nbsp;The easiest distribution strategy and return on investment would come from an all-rights deal for the film. However, if an all-rights deal isn’t lucrative for all parties, we are prepared to distribute the film ourselves across platforms domestically while making deals with distributors in foreign territories for Theatrical, Digital, and Blu-Ray releases.Our AudienceFans of teen movies will love our aesthetic since we're\u0026nbsp;pulling inspiration\u0026nbsp;from the 90s/early 2000s\u0026nbsp;for our stylish production design, iconic wardrobe, and killer soundtrack. While lovers of Richard Linklater's films (Jessica's favorite filmmaker) will come\u0026nbsp;for the thought provoking, authentic story and our two lead characters\u0026nbsp;who resemble chemistry similar to Jesse and\u0026nbsp;Céline in the Before Trilogy.Escaping Ohio\u0026nbsp;will most resemble\u0026nbsp;coming-of-age\u0026nbsp;stories like Booksmart, Lady Bird, and To All the Boys I've Loved Before;\u0026nbsp;all\u0026nbsp;franchise-able films with a global audience.\u0026nbsp;Support Film\u0026nbsp;in OhioWe're so excited to be working with the Greater Cleveland Film Commission! Other films they've worked on include the Oscar-winning film Judas and the Black Messiah, the Netflix film All the Bright Places, Marvel films, and many more.\u0026nbsp;Ohio is another character in our film, bringing all its beauty \u0026amp; charm\u0026nbsp;to the screen. Jessica was born \u0026amp; raised in Akron, OH and is excited to show it off\u0026nbsp;and bring business to her home state.\u0026nbsp;The way Jessica portrays Ohio through her lens of love and nostalgia\u0026nbsp;is another element as to how our film will stand out against the rest.\u0026nbsp;Streaming platforms \u0026amp; networks are looking for new stories based outside of\u0026nbsp;the usual New York City \u0026amp; LA and though some films have been set in Ohio before, rarely do they make use of all it has to offer.\u0026nbsp;Plus, everyone knows someone from Ohio.\u0026nbsp;Testimonials\u0026nbsp;“Jessica is the embodiment of a very talented female filmmaker to look out for, lots of great work ahead.”\u0026nbsp;-Late Fee Cinema“Jessica and Collin Kelly-Sordelet are two of the most charming, dedicated, and talented people I've ever met. I cannot wait to see them on screen again. I have a feeling that we will be seeing a lot more of each of them in the future and I'll be happy to say I ‘knew them when.’” -Gina Marie Rodriguez, Filmmaker, Westfield IFF Founder\"The chemistry is undeniable.\" -Miss en Scene“I’d bet on Jessica any day.” -The Film Freak \"I’ve been following Jessica’s career for over a decade, and the growth in her work is remarkable.
