THE STORY
SPACE HEROES is an original sci-fi series set in the year 2159. Faster Than Light travel has become reality and mankind is expanding beyond the solar system.
CAPTAIN HAMILTON is being called into action by THE PRESIDENT to find out about a mysterious signal 5000 light years away.

The world of SPACE HEROES is inspired by the more positive versions of the future and the shows that heavily influenced my childhood - especially Captain Future and Star Trek.
The vision for this project is to bring back the sense of wonder and adventure of real and fictional space travel and the lighthearted fun of old serials.
The concept is to produce an entertaining series for Youtube with episodes of about 10 minutes length.

But wait - there's more!
MUCH more!
Principal photography for the pilot is done. Now, we want to tell the complete story!
As you know, Sci-fi requires a lot of special- and visual effects. This is a SAG (Screen Actors' Guild) certified production.
With your help we will give you an awesome series pilot - and depending on the funding:
More budget = more episodes. And ideally: More episodes with great visual effects.
One thing's for sure though: Good actors and stories first, VFX second, and quality track and sound.
The budget includes: salaries, healthcare, insurances, taxes, fees, and of course props and the technical gear. We scratched together resources to pay for principal photography, part of VFX. Stuff still have to be paid, Here's a budget breakdown:

Risks
There really are none. As mentioned, the principal photography has been completed. The crew is committed. We have completed already an Indiegogo campaign succesfully before. WE DELIVER. And we are already in preparation for Episode 2!
Times are tough, we get it.
