Aiming to Make Film History with the Longest End Credits Ever
Independent feature film The Search for Gillian Gold has launched an ambitious and creative new crowdfunding campaign — inviting the public to become part of the film in a truly universal way.
Rather than seeking large individual investments, the production is calling on 1,000 people to each donate just £1 — a collective effort to help bring the film to life while building a community of supporters who will be permanently embedded in the project’s legacy.
In exchange for their £1 contribution, every backer will receive:
An official credit in the final film
Recognition as part of the film’s founding supporters
Inclusion in what the filmmakers hope will become one of the longest end credit sequences ever created
The campaign embraces the film’s themes of memory, records, and the people who exist within them — turning the credits into a living archive of those who helped make the story possible.
Writer and Director Stuart Wheeldon said:
“This film has always been about people — the recorded, the missing, the remembered. It felt right that the audience themselves could become part of that record. If we reach 1,000 supporters, the end credits won’t just list names — they’ll tell a story of collective belief in independent film.”
The Search for Gillian Gold is currently in production development, with casting underway and early materials already released. Funds raised will go directly toward key production costs including locations, equipment, cast expenses, and post-production.
