Help the short film Yuck! to shine in Hollywood 💞

From Villeurbanne to L.A.? 🎞 ➡️ 🇺🇸 Since its international premiere at the Berlinale in February 2024, we've been lucky enough to show Yuck! on every continent and in over 34 countries! Today, the film has the opportunity to race for the Oscars® 🌟 An Oscar race is a marathon lasting several months to promote the film to Academy members, the media and the public. It takes place in 3 phases: 🎥 The first vote takes place in December: it determines a shortlist of 15 films. 🎥 In January, Academy members select the 5 nominated films. 🎥 Finally, the ceremony takes place on March 2, 2025. It's a fun, exciting challenge that takes time and energy. Above all, it's a major financial investment - several tens of thousands of euros. Because you have to : 💖 Surround yourself with communications professionals to implement the strategy and operational aspects (organizing screenings, targeted invitations to Academy members, promoting the film abroad and in major studios, buying advertising space in specialized media...). 💖 Decline and put online our marketing for US audience. 💖 Create official goodies. 💖 Travel to the US to present the film, if it reaches the final stage. We're cutting costs and investing in risk, but independent companies like Ikki and Iliade operate on a financial model that doesn't allow us to spend large sums on film promotion. The €7,500 we're aiming for is the minimum needed to campaign without jeopardizing the companies and their future projects. If we exceeded this amount, it would be incredible! It would give us the means to roll out a larger campaign, and multiply Yuck!'s chances of being shortlisted, and why not nominated! We believe in it. Do you? Then you can help us! PUT SOME GLITTER IN YOUR LIFE ✨ Goodies are available according to your desires and means. We've chosen to offer you items that are as eco-responsible as possible: t-shirts, sweatshirts and caps are embroidered in France in Villeurbanne (Loïc's hometown 🫰). T-shirts (180g) and sweatshirts (300g) are made from organic cotton, and manufactured to the highest standards of respect for workers. Posters are printed near our Paris premises and postcards are printed in France. And don't forget: embroidery can feature either "Beurk!" or the international title "Yuck!"!
