Hi, my name's V. Well, actually, it's Veronica Jean Tricket, but I prefer V, because when
you weren't out the letters, the eaves looked like they're smiling.
I'm a filmmaker. I've been doing that for two years. It's been fun, but that's not how
I started. Here's how I started. I was walking to work one day. You know work. That place
where you arrive, stare at the clock, watch the hours pass by, and it looks like time
is going in reverse instead of forward. Anyway, as I crossed over the road and got to the
other side, I stopped and looked ahead, and I realised that I didn't want to do it anymore.
I don't want to do this anymore, and suddenly I wanted to do something else. You don't want
to do something else. So I quit. And then after I quit, I thought a lot. No, seriously,
seriously. I thought about who I was, who I wanted to be, and where I wanted to go in
life. And then all of a sudden, it came to me, I wanted to be in the film industry. So
I started to network, met some people, those people became friends. We wrote some scripts,
did some short films, showed those films to other friends, and those friends said, hey,
we should do some more. So we did. And that's where this came into play. Juliet and the
Shrink is an ambitious six-part comedy drama that's based around Bertie Hammond, the people
she meets, and how she finds it a bit difficult to fit in. Bertie's had a bit of a rough time
of it. She lost her parents when she was really young. She works at a tele-sales company.
And to top it all off, her best friend steals the guy that she starts falling in love with.
Well, as you can imagine, she kind of gets a little bit wobbly and has a bit of a breakdown.
She moves down to Brighton, starts fresh, and then tries to get back to a bit of normalcy.
But unfortunately, Brighton's not really like that. And she realises that the people that
she meets are a lot crazier than she is. Not least, her counsellor and the people that
she goes and works with. So who are we? We're a group of Brighton-based filmmakers, actors,
actresses, film crew, all at the beginning of very promising careers who have dedicated
their own time to see this project through to completion.
Donate, like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, share our pages on your sites, stalk
the hell out of us, let people know we're here. If we don't reach the target that we
get on Kickstarter, we don't receive any of the funds from myself and that whole cast
and crew of Juliet and the Shanks. Thank you.
