Earth, 2065. Nuclear missiles have just been fired and World War Three has started. People have less than 45 minutes to get to a bunker or get off the planet. Desperate people mob spaceports and private space ships. The crew of the Endeavour just make it to another craft after their ship is damaged. Once in space, all the craft are issued with a mission: find humanity a new home. It’s a challenge that sends the Endeavour space crew to uncharted regions of the galaxy.
The visual effects of the original Star Wars trilogy required immense effort from the creators. Wearing costumes like C-3PO and Jabba the Hutt puppeteers was physically grueling in extreme temperatures. Stop motion animation for creatures and vehicles was an painstaking process requiring precision. The bantha costume worn by an elephant on set caused difficulties. Ewok costumes also trapped heat, dehydrating actors. Creating these effects pushed teams greatly but helped make Star Wars an unparalleled cinematic experience.

Walking with Elephants is about the last great herds of elephants in Africa.
With a population of barely 350,000 Savanah elephants left, the biggest of the planet’s land animals face extinction within our lifetime. Half of these elephants during the dry season are densely populated in northern Botswana as they are protected by the government there. However, across the border into Namibia, Angola, Zambia and Zimbabwe – where many of the elephants return in the wet season, their future is fraught. In Kenya and Tanzania and South Africa, nearly all of the surviving elephants are enclosed in game reserves and no longer roam the wilderness that once saw them travel up to one hundred miles a day.
Walking with Elephants is first and foremost about elephants. While these fast disappearing magnificent and intelligent beasts live out their lives, they are being squeezed by humans into ever smaller patterns of behavior. While poaching is highlighted as a major factor in the decline in elephant numbers, it is in fact farming, and in particular cattle farming, that is robbing elephants of the habitat they foraged for themselves and the animals that depended on the grasslands they created.
The Compassionate Film Series is a Mini-Series of 3 One-Hour broadcast slot TV documentaries related to Tibetan Buddhism made for the international marketplace. They have been developed by British film and television Production Company Illumina Studios & Media Ltd with Award Winning filmmakers, journalists and authors as creative contributors.
The films can be shown by broadcasters in one hour special TV slots on their own or together as a series. All the films aim to highlight the ancient and vibrant cultures, stories, traditions and wide international interest in the subjects relating to Tibet and Buddhism. The current market for television series is strong and these films are intended to capitalise on this trend.
The unrivalled access to some of the world leading figures, including His Holiness Dalai Lama combined with unique cultural content is intended to be relevant and appealing to a broad international audience. The telling of the stories in the series represents the culmination of many decades of storytelling history and back stories and are to be told on film for the first time with some of the worlds leading talent.
The popularity and interest of millions of people around the world in Tibet and their exiled leader, His Holiness 14th Dalai Lama continues even half a century after China invaded Tibet. Why are so many people interested in his story and what can we learn from his principles of love and compassion?
Fifty-eight years after China’s Most Wanted Man escaped from occupied Tibet, this powerful documentary film follows The Dalai Lama as he returns to the Tibetan borderlands for the first time to retrace his remarkable journey and escape into exile in 1959. Remarkably, this is the first time that the story will have ever been told on film!
The Stolen is a story about Young Charlotte Lockton (Alice Eve), she has settled in the North Island with her wealthy husband, David. But her life’s dreams are shattered when he’s murdered on their farm and her baby son is kidnapped. A month after paying a ransom, frustrated with the apathy of the authorities and distrusting of her staff, she decides to track him down on her own.
And so begins her journey through the wilds of an untamed New Zealand. She comes into contact with Villains, Suffragettes, Hustlers, Chinese Grocers and native Maori Warriors. And she’s forced to join a convoy of Whores, Dancers and Ex-Cons heading for the rough mining community of Goldtown.
There she meets Joshua McCullen (Jack Davenport,) the owner of the mining town: a man who is key to uncovering the truth behind the disappearance of her son, forcing her to fight to the death for what she holds most dear.
‘The Stolen’ is an exciting and unique balance of gripping narrative, dynamic action, arresting visuals, and fully-rounded characters offering ripe potential for great performances.
Jason Mewes will direct and star in the new film "Madness in the Method" about an actor who descends into madness as he tries to escape the shadow of his famous co-star and take over the creative universe. The film will reunite Mewes with his longtime friend and collaborator Kevin Smith and co-star Danny Trejo. It will have a documentary style and explore the dark realities of fame and Hollywood.
Joshua Kloss and Jessica Harbour travel across the USA and Cuba on motorcycles, reviewing boats and bikes, going fishing, and meeting various motorcycle and boating clubs. Sebastian Lyte directs the series, which features Adam Brudnicki and Otmara Marrero as presenters exploring the boating and motorcycling communities in stunning locations. The series provides insights into these worlds through fun adventures and interactions with local people and groups.
THE CONTRACTORS will focus on the life and times of private security contractors in hot spots and war zones around the world. These men and women do extraordinary jobs in extreme environments. This series will examine the people at the eye of the storm and what drives them there. These Contractors come from a variety of backgrounds with each individual story taking a very personal look into some very complicated characters with as much turmoil around them as inside these brave individuals. This will be no ordinary “fly on the wall” series, as we take our cameras to the most extreme and dangerous front lines in the private war on terror, drug cartels, poachers and pirates. Kidnapping, suicide bombings and covert intelligence operations are all in a days work for this rare breed, but it’s not all blood and guts, as many of them are responsible for the protection of humanitarian aide operations or medical support in places where many dare not go…but we did. Each episode will comprise three basic components…

Runaway Features are excited to announce that they are immediately moving into pre-production
on futuristic sci-fi series Endeavor. The ten-part series is the fourth production to have been ‘reverse
engineered’ by the production team for distribution demand in the UK (the first of these projects being
The Rise and Fall of a White Collar Hooligan).
The production team have, in the last few years, become the front runners in production of independent
low budget London feature films. Below are a few of the recent titles, delivered to market, that they have
been involved with. As leaders in the UK independent film industry, we have a proven track record of
producing commercially successful features that appeal directly to the market, on time and on budget.
The Rise & Fall of a White Collar Hooligan was the biggest selling independent film of 2012 in the UK and
spawned two hugely popular sequels.
6. 6 ENDEAVOR
Our most recent projects are the political action thriller No Easy Days and the Sci Fi time travel series
Dystopia. Now deep in post production, the ten part series of No Easy Days is scheduled for broadcast in
the US, UK and Canada in spring 2016. Conceived as “24 meets House of Cards”, the show features stars
of genre favourites Battlestar Gallactica, The Sopranos, 24, Generation Kill and The Pacific, the series was
filmed on location and at studios in Canada.
Dystopia was a lower budget project, combining
low cost set builds with location shooting. With a
strong science fiction concept, the need for VFX
are at a minimum to keep costs down. Conceived as
“Terminator meets Children of Men”, the series was
filmed in Virginia.
Endeavor will repeat the success of this model,
shooting at studios in Stockholm, Sweden and
on location in Virginia, USA. Our spaceship
set will be the main basis for the shoot,
with characters flashback elements filming
on location.
An accomplished cast of talented actors has been
put together by director Paul Tanter to appeal to the
target genre audience.

Earth, 2065. Nuclear missiles
have just been fired Starting
World War 3. People have
less than 45 minutes to
get to a bunker or get off
the planet.
People swamp spaceports
and private ships, desperate
to flee. The mining crew of
the Endeavour just make it off
in another craft after theirs
is damaged.
Once in space, all ships are
issued with a mission and a
destination: find humanity
a new home. We follow the
Endeavour space crew on their
journey to uncharted regions of
the galaxy.
As the crew for the new
spaceship are all fully boarded
we know very little about each
one, however as the series
unfolds we learn a little more
about the sacrifice that each
of them made to be on the last
human beings left alive through
personal backstory flashbacks
of their last hours on Earth.
We learn that in desperate
times, people do desperate
things to save themselves,
some forgivable …and some not
so. As the journey progresses,
relationships and the ship
itself begin to break down. As
tensions and violence on board
rises, the crews own actions may
jeopardize their mission.
A chance encounter with an
identical derelict craft results in
tragedy and an unknown person
stowing away.
By the time they reach their
mission planet to survey, there
may be no one on board left
alive to send the message back
to the rest of humanity.

on this role. Toby began his career working alongside Jamie Lloyd,
the acclaimed director of The Caretaker.
The naturalistic views and intimacy that the camera can capture,
was a great appeal to Toby and enthused a concentration in 2004
toward working on short films.
Toby has worked behind the camera on various television shows,
including Holby City and Sugar Rush. He has worked on a number of
film sets; the grandest of these being V for Vendetta, and Stardust.
This work gave him his first experiences of working with large
production budgets; leading him toward the production side of
film making.

The Series will be a cross between The Walking Dead and Lost. The mystery of our characters and their
motives against the post apocalyptic space set thriller will give an air of distrust when humanity itself is
at stake.
Each episode delves into the characters past, which informs our current predicament and the audience
will tune in every week to witness the ever changing group dynamic of trust. Also, no one is safe, we will
kill main and core characters in the first season to keep the audience fully engaged.
The following comparable titles suitable comparison for the style and aims of the show:
The most successful science fiction television shows of all time, this number

Aided by smart casting, a clever, mainstream script and a solid campaign,

The latest show to combine high-concept science fiction with a space ship
setting, Ascension has recently proved a popular show on both sides of
the Atlantic. An intriguing notion (we discover the ship is actually a large,
Truman Show type hoax that the occupants are unaware of), a second
season is currently being commissioned. Like Endeavor, it features a great
cast playing characters with various and uncertain motives on board. Like
Ascension, Endevour features plenty of sex scenes featuring the attractive
members of the crew in order to generate interest and headlines.

Combining a strong science fiction story with a present day setting, Lost
was one of the biggest shows of its time, scooping numerous awards
and keeping fans guessing through clever writing and ingenious online
marketing campaigns.
We will be replicating this shows “flashback” element for its main characters
in Endeavor, enabling us to explore the characters back stories leading
up to the nuclear apocalypse, and enabling us to feature stories set off
