About Akashic Spheres

Akashic Spheres is a fictional story about artifacts that are endowed with the power of unlocking the metaphysical multiverse and all its infinite knowledge. Our protagonist Captain Everest was stationed in India when he first heard about the spheres. So intrigued, that when he completed his tour of duty, he spent years researching the myths behind these relics. We start our story from the day he actually finds his first Akashic Sphere and activates it without really knowing the consequences.

A few years ago I wrote this short story for an actor friend of mine. He hated it. I never made a film with him, but I kept the story in the back of my mind. Flash forward 2020, I met John Kearney while collaborating on another film project written by Scott Abraham. We were talking about doing a project and he ask, "What scripts do you have?". I sent him a dozen or so stories I had been drafting and he responded the next day. "I Love Akashic Spheres. Its just the kind of film I want to do."

So I started collecting and creating props, procuring wardrobe, and securing locations to shoot. Of course, being in the height of the Covid Pandemic I really didn't have access to a cast, and both John and I were eager to film so I modified the script to include "Rudy" our CGI drone which gave John a reason and target to explain all the aspects of the story. Otherwise he would have been talking to himself and that would have been really strange.

Nonetheless, we completed shooting the film over a couple of weeks and then I spent a few months creating all the VFX and editing for the first episode. We're really proud of what we created and have so much more story to tell. We're always getting better equipment to increase the quality AND I've got some new cast members that are super talented who will really bring this story to life. I hope you join us for the adventure, its going to be really fun!

About Our Production Process

How we film?

Script Writing

Akashic Spheres has an overall arc which guides us while writing the guts of the story. Its the Dynamic Production Method which basically means we custom tailor the scenes to our resources available. It works like a champ.

Film Production

Film (silver nitrate on cellulose) is rare these days, Everything is digital. We call it film because we are using the production style that creates traditional cinema. Video is more or less live broadcast.

Industry lingo, an episode is 20+ minutes long. A feature film is 60+ minutes long and usually falls between 90 - 120 min. Features take a really long time to produce and even harder to get funded. Being a filmmakers with limited resources, we devised a plan to chop the film up into 10 minute "chapters". These are much easier to manage and once all the chapters are put together without credits and intros we will ultimate have a feature film. The upside is that we can deliver these chapters to you at relatively regular intervals.

Our goal is to recieve $5000 per chapter. I know its a lofty goal, but not unrealistic. Watch our pilot "Chapter 1" for FREE! Keep in mind, we shot this with no budget at our own expense. IMAGINE the overall production value if we had a reasonable budget to work with. This is why we need your contribution. Our promise to you: Your money will be well spent to increase the quality and speed of production. Be part of this amazing film project. With your help, we can make this an on-going TV series.

James Scott

Hi, I'm going to talk about myself in first person, I hope you don't mind. Ever since I was a kid I had a facination for animation and sci-fi films. I remember watching "Jason and the Argonauts", "The Invaders", "Godzilla", "Star Trek" and so many others on TV. Like "Adult Swim" we had all sorts of catchy names for the programming "Creature Feature", "Saturday Mattinee", "Paul Barers Horror Show", and who can forget "Elvira's Movie Macabre".

To say these programs had an influence on me is an understatement. Even though I had a burning desire to make film, I was assured it was an impossible dream. So I worked toward the goal by picking up skills and honing my talent through various forms of media. From graphic design, 3D modeling, photography, animation and VFX, I was finally feeling confident that I could undertake filmmaking.

It took a lifetime to get here and if I were to do it all over again, I would have started with film. Its insanely gratifying.
