Short Summary

For the last year the Significance Producers have been working extremely hard to bring Significance to life. With some incredible attachments to the project already, Jeremy Sumpter (Peter Pan) and Michael Welch (Twilight), only added to us having some amazingly huge studio meetings. Yet, in our hearts we felt like we were sacrificing our integrity and what we really loved about Significance. So we approached the fans with the question of which would you rather? Would you rather wait for the Studios to give us the green light, or take matters into our own hands and bring this project, which we all love, to life! Giving the fans a rare opportunity to be apart of casting and a vote! The fans all agree that fan funding is the way to go to bring this TV pilot to life! 

SYNOPSIS

Significance is a one-hour character driven sci-fi/fantasy drama that follows Maggie Masters, a 17 yr. old girl trying to discover herself. When a fated encounter engulfs her into a world of supernatural beings that is benign to humans, she is forced to enter a century old battle between two rival clans. With new powers and strange allies at her side, Maggie must defend the ones she loves while keeping her new life a secret. Making this difficult choice and trusting in herself to save those around her, Maggie ultimately realizes that family is what brings her back to humanity.

SERIES STRUCTURE 

Our series employs a three-tiered structure to maintain tension and suspense every week. Similar to what was attempted on the shows Vampire Diaries, Heroes and Smallville, this structure allows us to maintain pressure on our characters each week through the use of a long-term “series-arc”, while simultaneously allowing for one-off and multi-episode story arcs. The combination of three story arcs will allow new viewers a chance to jump-in at any point in the season, while rewarding the dedicated viewer with a grander scope and mythology.

CORE THEMES & SENSIBILITIES 

Amongst all of the fantastic ideas and special effects inherent in our story, we should always strive to put the “real world” on an equal plane. “Maggie uses her powers to stop the villain” should have equal dramatic tension with “Maggie confronts her long absent mother”. The real world is where Maggie wants to be, it’s her focus, as any teenager will tell you. It’s when her powers conflict with this desire for “normalcy” that we see the heart of what Significance is about.

Being a teenager is full of difficult choices and decisions, most of which dictate who you will become in your adult life. Who you choose as friends, where you go to college, these are the questions that Maggie has to answer. Who can she go to for advice? Who has her best interests at heart? Will she believe in herself enough to follow through? Who can she trust and what happens when someone betrays that trust? This will be Maggie’s struggle.   

Episode 1-“Pilot

Prologue:  1850’s. A man is brutally beaten by thieves and thrown down a mysterious well, which endows him with supernatural abilities.

Maggie is trying to get through her last few days of high school, everyone is on edge after fellow classmates have gone mysteriously missing. Reluctantly, Maggie agrees to go on a date with hipster Kyle Jacobson. On her way to the date she saves the handsome Caleb Jacobson from a near death experience. Before Kyle’s eyes, Maggie bonds with Caleb. This new unexpected event brings Maggie into a world of supernatural powers that manifest once you meet your significant other. Unable to control her new abilities and with nowhere to turn, Caleb brings Maggie to the head of his clan, Peter Jacobson. 


What We Need & What You Get

To make this pilot competitive with the other TV shows, we have been told by our budget expert that 200k would be sufficient in bringing this Pilot to its prime and thus be on the same par with like YA TV shows. However, if we exceed our goal it will be that much better with being able to splurge with special effects. Every cent is used towards the project. Once we reach our goal we will begin immediately with prep and our projection month to start filming will be August 2014. If we do not reach our goal, we will still have that money towards production and begin the journey to find private investors, this however is extremely hard and we will not be able to start filming this year. Our hopes are to exceed our goal to make this the best it can be, to have the fans be excited to see their beloved characters come to life and to proceed to the 2nd episode.

Which leads us to the question on what will happen after we finish the Pilot. We will have a premiere for the fans to view and then sell the series to a network or go in the direction of a web series. 

The Impact

This best sellingYA book series that Shelly Crane created touched our hearts in many ways. It brought fans together from all over the world with a common hope that soul- mates are real. Love truly does exist and can conquer all things in this series. With an X-MEN feel for powers it appeals to the masses, not just the women. Its a sort of series that isn't on TV while creating a fresh spin on the young adult content currently in the market. 

We strongly believe that this has the potential to be the next hit TV show. The fate is in your hands. Any donation is greatly appreciated. This is an exciting journey we all get to take together and you can truly say you financed a TV show and are ultimately the reason as to why this project was made! Funded by the fans! It's truly a unique way of financing that brings us closer together.
