Best spin off in the competition. In my opinion, none of the other stories left in this competition can spin off like this story can. I used to have a Princess Leia toothbrush. Maybe my son will have an Eli or Scarlock toothbrush, or lunch kit or backpack or water-bottle or pjs or T-shirt...

I like it. Top 5 Banff. What budget would you need to complete as a film or per TV series

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

We are habitually frugal filmmakers because we haven't had much to work with in our past projects, so aside from purchasing new equipment, paying actors and crew, visual effects, and other smaller costs we plan to stay under the budget of $1million. The script was written to accommodate a very guerrilla style of filmmaking, so right there we'd cut costs. So to directly answer you question, our budget for a film would be under $1 million, but probably over half a million.

As TV series, we are not sure yet of an exact figure, but we would definitely implement some of the strategies we'd use on the film to cut costs.

If there's a will there's a way Gertray, as filmmakers it's our job to make the impossible possible on screen.

Read the Uprising T.V. Series Proposal! I love the possibilities.

Arcadia could be the future result of the rich get richer leaving the other 99% behind.
Arcadia could represent everything that is wrong with today's society of riches and excess.
A materialistic society filled with people leading empty meaningless lives, with shallow relationships that focus on "what's in it for me." Greed, politics, back-stabbing drama all breed in Arcadia--the typical amoral society.

Living outside, the Commune represents everything that's important in life and good in society. It becomes the anti-thesis to materialism focusing on real relationships between people who care for each other's well being despite their hard-times.

I love the focus of a t.v. series for adolescents, because they represent the potential future changers of society, and with the hard life lessons that Eli is sure to learn while growing up, the potential audience for the sequel movie/t.v. series also grow-up with Eli.

The Uprising Spin Off is also well positioned to take advantage of the current Teen Reading Trends.
According the the Young Adult Library Services, the current teen reading trends continue with dystopias (where everything is unpleasant or bad i.e. totalitarian or environmentally degraded), and post-apocalypse. SInce most teen readers are overwhelmingly female, I like that the Uprising team has introduced a strong female character.

Teens represent a growing market. StageofLife.com is reporting results from a teen survey that shows that 56% of teens go out to movies at a cinema at least once a month, with 11% paying for more than four movies a month. Five interesting movie trends emerged from the survey of 4,885 teens: 1) Inspiration--positive messages motivated them to be and do better; 2) Follow your dreams--no matter what the obstacles, it's possible to achieve your dreams; 3) The Golden Rule--be nice to one another: "don't judge others--period." 4) Give back to others--which the teens did in their communities; and 5) Cherish your time--Material things don't matter as much as love from your friends and family. These are the themes that teens are saying make inspiring movies they like, and given their broad social networks, movies they will recommend to friends.

Given the above, I can see Uprising aligning with today's teens and the platform as being very financially successful for Cinecoup, which is important since they are footing the bill.

Just my two cents.

Hi Ron! This is by far one of my favourite comments ever. The teen audience is huge for us, however not the only one, I believe there is something in here for adults too, but again, I LOVE you insight to this.

We've had so much fun exploring the possibilities for Uprising and where it can go, and I'm glad you share our enthusiasm!

Daylen M.

Scarlock looks badass! Any of these spin-off ideas would be just as sucessful as the original Uprising!

Timothy C.
Posted 5 months ago

Thanks man! We LOVED this mission simply because we knew Uprising had a lot of content that could be developed!

Kyle F.
Posted 5 months ago

AHHH GO TEAM!!! I'm excited to see this really as anything! It looks exciting and not all just aimless killing. Fighting for a cause always makes a plot better :)

Timothy C.
Posted 5 months ago

So glad you appreciate the emotional depth in Uprising! Really wish people could have a look at the script, but the TV series proposal gives a better look into our film too!

Emily H.
Posted 5 months ago

You're one of the top project. Rooting for you guys! Love the concept for #BeExpanding!

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

Thanks Emily that's so kind of you!!

Chado M.
Posted 5 months ago

Your universe is definitely the way to go with something as big as this concept. This could easily be a video game too. I like the explanation - something more from the graphic novel, or a mini-trailer/clip from what could be a scene from the possible TV show would have given it more 'oomph' though.

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

I do agree with you Chado! We would love to get more in depth, unfortunately the time constraints for the missions allow us to only reveal so much, at this point we could only really present as much as you see.

However should you like to learn more about the TV show, we attached a brief proposal as a PDF lower down on this page :)

Parker W.
Posted 5 months ago

I hope you guys know this is incredible. I believe your project has the MOST room to expand out of the top 10 contenders, it would be silly for something to not come out of this. The graphic novel, Scarlock poster, and TV series all looks amazing. Scarlock seems like the next new thing hahaha, such an awesome name!!

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

Thanks Parker! We do believe Scarlock can become a new icon :)

Michelle G.
Posted 5 months ago

great job - again! I like that you kept this mission very concise - picked 2 great ideas and explored them in more detail. It's definitely a marketable concept.

June B.
Posted 5 months ago

Wicked art work on Scarlock and graphic novel. You guys continue to impress and put everything into your missions. The creativity of this entire team is well-balanced and exceptional. Still can't believe how young you all are and can't imagine how excited you are to make it to top ten! BEST OF LUCK IN MAKING IT ALL THE WAY!!

Patti D.
Posted 5 months ago

Well thought out. I like the graphic novel and the TV series ideas. You're a brilliant and creative bunch - good luck!

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

Thank you Patti! I believe Uprising could make a good TV series should a feature not pan out, so we'll see what happens!

Patti D.
Posted 5 months ago

It's a great concept and young adult films, books, & television are very popular right now. I would totally watch the series... even though I'm far from young (or adult). I'm an old adolescent. lol

Cat R.
Posted 5 months ago

You make these highly challenging missions look so easy, like a piece of cake. But it's obvious with the detail of your craft, you put in a tons of energy, effort, and enthusiasm. The story has so much spin off potential but, it would be just great in a full feature film as well.

Zachary V.
Posted 5 months ago

Thanks Cat, they do take up a ton of our time. And there are only three of us!

Sam I.

Natalia N.

I'm digging the tv series idea. I think it could definitely work and be a big hit. Also love love love the scar lock poster. It would make a wicked video game I would probably find myself playing.

Akash S.
Posted 5 months ago

Haha yes! As we said we believe Scarlock has to potential to grow into an icon, and when that surfaces, even MORE outlets (especially video games!!) open up :)

Mark V.
Posted 5 months ago

The Scarlock poster tells me that the characters will definitely experience some changes in your film. The appearance of Eli in Scarlock really shows the character’s evolution and how he has changed in a more advanced way. This got me thinking back to the premise of your trailer and how the characters must overcome personal challenges gaining a larger perspective on the world around them. The evolution of character is definitely a tricky story to tell, but I have absolutely no doubts that you all can pull it off.

P.S. Make sure to remind your artists that they did a wonderful job.

Carol H.

I really like your Uprising TV Series Proposal. It is well thought out with key characters and lots of room for plot and character development.

Timothy C.
Posted 5 months ago

Glad you like it! The proposal definitely also gives a bit more insight into our story, if anyone else is interested in learning more!

Zachary V.
Posted 5 months ago

Luckily our strong character base allows us to expand into directions like TV series - which always needs characters with a ton of depth. Thanks for your support Carol!

Anita N.

I love the new Poster A featuring the sequel to Uprising. Trilogy would be so much an advantage with a strong flowing story. Very good guys and congrats on making it to the Top 10. Special Effects are a science-fiction best friend for sure. It opens the doors to a brand new venue where in the past it would have been hard press to find. The Revolution has started - Uprising

Akash S.

This has to be one of my favourite comments! From the start we wanted to make something that will evolve and grown past just our original idea

Mark V.

Timothy C.

We've got our awesome artists to thank for bringing our visions to life! And I've gotta say, when we first read the mission, we knew Uprising was perfect for expanded content. :)

Zachary V.
Posted 5 months ago

We hope so! A graphic novel would be a very fun way to tell the story behind Uprising. Thanks for the kind words, Eric!

The medians you're proposing to expand this world into make so much sense with the concept you've pitched. It's very clear to see that you guys had this all worked out from the beginning, and I think it speaks volumes about your professionalism and ambition.

Thank you Carol, that means a lot! :)

Grayson W.
Posted 5 months ago

You guys....are THE guys. Scarlock looks so intense, I was hoping you'd kind of pull out an icon from this.

The graphic novel. Perfect.

Uprising as a TV series could definitely work! Please make this into something you guys have somethng special going on.
