I don't want to kill your dream, but I see that your campaign is not succeeding. Four days since launch, and not a single donation; that is a very unpromising beginning, especially as I see you've been posting the same message as above far and wide. As Ted Hope famously said, "'Crowdfunding' is two words: 'crowd' and 'funding'. If you don't already have the crowd, you won't get the funding." The overwhelming majority of crowdfunding donations come from your extended network: the people you know, and the people they know. I suggest that you might have launched your campaign prematurely, based on the feeling that "If you build it, they will come."

One glaring flaw leaps out at me: You don't tell us what your movie is about! It's a feature, it's based on a true story, and it's got something to do with "the American dream". That's all you reveal! Why would people support your project when you don't give us a reason to be enthusiastic about it? Because it means a lot to you? That is not sufficient motivation for most people to give money to a stranger to start her business, and it certainly does not establish your project as unique or special; every single project on GoFundMe means a lot to its creator. I suggest that you would improve your campaign immensely if you gave us more information about the movie you want us to sponsor.

(I see one other huge flaw in your campaign, and a few minor flaws, but this is enough to be going on with.)

Best of luck with the project!
 
Something did seem off to me - very strange hand and arm movements.
I attributed that to her not being comfortable on camera. It was clearly
a generated background but I thought, maybe, greenscreen. 100% AI?
Fooled me.

The hand movements obviously have absolutely nothing to do with the pacing of the voice. Also, the voice’s delivery is very flat and algorithmic. Watch the eyes: very strange placement of blinks, squinting, and eyebrow movement. And look closely at the mouth, as its movements are closely approximated with the dialog but not at all accurate.
