Last year, after ten good years in the advertising business, David McKay decided to throw caution to the wind and go full steam ahead into the world of filmmaking. He believes that working on countless TV commercial shoots, directly with high profile film directors and actors, has helped him parlay his talents into film rather seamlessly.
He’s written and directed a few shorts and is now moving forward with production on The Man Who Would Live, which he hopes will be the gateway to something bigger and brighter. David and his crew of local filmmakers are currently casting, scouting and raising money to film the short in the upcoming months and eventually submit it to film festivals across the country as a representation of Richmond, VA film.
The first fundraiser will be held Wednesday, August 4th at The Fanhouse. There will be various drink specials, in addition to ways to donate additional funds or assistance to help the cause. More information on getting involved, donating money, future events, and the production progress can be found at http://themanwhowouldlive.blogspot.com/
