In this age of 21st century internet media, there have
been a lot of attempts to do new things with traditional film ... to think
outside the box, as the saying goes. There have been online-only
director's projects, interactive flash animations, all digital movies,
and lots and lots of contests for amatuer film-makers.
Now, Brickfilms.com presents a new way to make online films: Vox
Populi. In this form of film-making, we are going to introduce a
regular "web-series" of episodic entertainment. A short film will
be available exclusively at Brickfilms.com, and after it is released, the
audience will choose where the series goes! Each episode in the series
will be original and exciting by itself ... but the real trick will be
that the audience will choose how the plot unfolds . . . who wins, who loses
. . . how a cast of characters deal with a situation; whether a betrayal
will take place or a sudden change of heart will save the day. We
are also juggling around the idea of all kind of collaboration on the series:
guest directors, cameos by other film-maker's characters, guest voice actors,
and lots more!
We are asking the visitors of Brickfilms.com to choose
the type of story that the first series will take on. Right now we
have two developed ideas: a sci-fi space epic and a super-hero series.
We will explain both concepts below and let you read
about them a bit. After you have looked them both over,
go to this poll
and choose which one will be made into a series!
The Sol Chronicles
In the year 2085, humanity had spread itself over the solar system, through
the void, and into the realm of other civilizations. It was a time
of great courage, great expansion, and great trial for the people of Earth.
We were united by this golden age of opportunity and wonder . . . but
there was also enormous uncertainly about the role humanity would play in
the universal drama that woudl unfodl in the coming years. These are
. . . The Sol Chronicles. Join a colorful cast of all - original aliens
such as the one-eyed Kuota whose poplulation grows faster than it can maintain
itself, the robotic Menkar whose entire society is made up of dueling corporations,
and the cystraline aliens from Cygnus whose ships have to be seen to be
believed. Space station dance clubs, ground assaults on desert planets,
mysterious encounters with enormous warships . . . all await you in the
world of The Sol Chronicles.
Champion League
In a city rife with victims, few would stand up to the onslaught of crimnal
minds. But a few uncanny warriors with amazing abilities have risen
from the city streets and are taking justice to the bad guys. Join
old-fashioned comic book fights and whacky, cackling super-villains as the
heroes try to stop them. Witness the amazing strength of Captain Lionheart!
Wonder at the amazing agility of The Arachniss! Chill out to
the cool powers of Blizzard! Fear the dark sorcery of the diabolical
Pharoh! Watch buildings be crushed by the gargantuan creations of the
evil genius, Dr. Mechano! Run from the deadly blades of Der Meisterkoff!
Catch the amazing genesis stories and roots for the good guys as
lamposts are swung, cars are wrecked, the police prove powerless, and the
city faces a new danger every episode!
Now that you have read about the concepts for both stories,
vote for your favorite!

Jason of Brickfilms Productions
