About this project
Imitation of life is part 1 of 5 short films that make up the series "Chicago Chronicles." It's an extended account in prose and verse of historical events,including legendary material, presented in chronological order about urban life. I would say that these particular events gave birth to a era that I would like to call, " The Chicago Renaissance" (Early 90's until current times). Imitation of life proves that a carefully created work of art using film can evoke a similarly spiritual response telling the story of Darien Connerly, a 19 year old teen who commits a string of robberies before killing a cab driver. That crime lands him in jail facing murder charges.The story is narrated by the neighborhood Slime ball. By way of musical verse he shows young kids how drugs, gangs, and violence can lead to self- destruction. The following feature titled "Robert Yummy Sandifer Story," is a story about a 11 year old child soldier (gang member) who is coerced by older gang members into committing a string of murders. He also committed other felonious crimes."Yummy" is then killed by the older gang members in order to silence him before the authorities could find out who sent "Yummy" on those murder missions. The story lines used in "The Chicago Chronicles" are based on true events. The purpose for creating these projects is to expose Chicago's troubled youth how to use media to tell a story and how to solve conflict without the use of violence. The average urban youth can identify with events presented in these stories either through personal experience or through the environment they are forced to live in. These projects allows them to look at their everyday experiences through a creative lens instead of a destructive lens. This form of conflict resolution is artistic, promotes positive expression and teaches them how to be productive by using sound moral judgement. All funds will be used for production cost. Thanks for your time and consideration.http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shaiking/chicago-chronicles-imitation-of-life-life-imitatin?ref=recently_launched
