Today we released a new teaser clip on Facebook, YouTube and Vimeo featuring a deeper look into the world of Project London. In this clip you will be introduced to the opposing forces in the movie, namely Joint Command and The London Underground.

The music is “Multiply” by Half Acre Day and is available exclusively on the Project London Soundtrack Album. We recommend playing this clip with your volume control turned way up. For all things Half Acre Day, visit halfacreday.com.

Also going out starting today is the first news release for the movie, titled, “Project London: A Perfect Blend of No Money, No Hollywood, and Tons of Mind-Blowing Special Effects”.

About Spiral Productions LLC:

Spiral Productions is a Limited Liability Corporation based in the Pacific Northwest of the United States of America, that produces a wide range of media for corporate and consumer audiences.

Spiral Productions LLC has just completed a major overhaul of the official Project London movie site. The original site was a single HTML page with a graphic, a link to the production blog and a link to sign up for the sometimes monthly email. The new site is built on the WordPress CMS system with a custom theme by Press75.com, which was again heavily customized to work for the movie with support from Hao Xiaobo. This site will take us through the release of the film.

Features planned for the near future include a character gallery, a page about the graphic novel (being created by Branson Anderson) and enhanced store features.

Project London is an independent, no-budget, feature-length, live action movie with vivid, intense, and marrow-vibrating visual effects and animations created with the open source software Blender (and other traditional software) and 250 (or so) worldwide volunteers. It’s led by The Triumvirate and set in Seattle, Washington. It will be available for worldwide viewing in its entirety very soon. In the meantime, check out an interview with the director: “Project London: The Most Ambitious No-Budget Effects Movie Ever”

Jawbone.tv has just published an interview with Ian Hubert, director and visual effects supervisor of Project London. Read it here.

This is the first clip to be shown from Project London that includes live action footage composited with the animations we created using Blender. Half Acre Day let us use their music on this. Thanks Guys! Listen to more of their music at halfacreday.com.

This is the second clip that we’ve released from the film and we are darn proud of the work everyone is doing to make this film really cool. Thanks Team!

Synopsis: A homeless race of aliens known as Nalardians have found and been given refuge on Earth. A young man, Nebraska Higgins, is unwittingly thrust into a struggle for a planet in peril. His enigmatic father and sole pilot of the iconic robotic green exosuit, Arizona, is taken from him during a hot pursuit by the Joint Command (the global police and military force). The London Underground, a rag tag resistance force, appear to be interested in recruiting Nebraska, but he’s confused by his tragic loss and manipulative Joint Command Officers. Old and secret government experiments gone horribly wrong have been resurrected with horrific ramifications. Can Nebraska come to grips with the loss of his father as interplanetary calamities threaten to destroy the world around him? The fate of the planet hangs on the potential in a young man’s heart.

The visual effects for the film are being created using Blender, open source software. This is perhaps the first feature length film to combine live action elements with animations created using Blender. Which is why there are thousands of Blender users around the globe anxiously awaiting the release of this film.

Our release plans include entering the film in festivals, securing distribution through iTunes and Netflix and selling disks and merchandise directly from the film’s web site. Ramping up to the release, there will be significant efforts to reach the film’s audience through social media, a series of viral videos, press releases to appropriate media and other marketing stratagems. The release will begin with select city premieres and appearances at sci-fi and graphic novel conventions and events.

Additional promotional considerations are available including co-branding on limited runs of disks and packaging. Each of our select city premieres are prime co-branding opportunities. And we are completely open to creating special events for large groups including companies interested in including a showing of the film.
