☀️🎬 Lights. Camera... Giving! 🎬
👋 Hi Friends~
The Casting Christmas donation page is officially LIVE!
Every holiday movie begins with someone believing in the story.
This December, we'll begin filming Casting Christmas, a heartfelt holiday feature celebrating authentic inclusion, family, romance, and the magic of the season. Led by an accomplished female filmmaking team, with Julia Barnett directing, Mindy Raymond producing, and Jennifer Lynch and Amanda Booth serving as Executive Producers, the film also features Amanda in a starring role.
With one of our lead actors living with a disability, Casting Christmas demonstrates that inclusive storytelling isn't a niche.
It's powerful, universal, and the future of filmmaking.
Now, we're inviting you to become part of the journey with us.
Your tax-deductible gift helps create meaningful opportunities for actors with disabilities while bringing a film to life that families can return to year after year.
From feeding our crew to building holiday sets, every donation makes a tangible impact.
❤️ Support the Film. Support Inclusive Storytelling.
