News.

Well- It’s official. “Kane.” Is making a full length film.
I’ve jumped on the Clicked Media bandwagon as, I guess you could say the manager/sales/main business guy. I’ll be Kane’s general slave/bitch during shoots and organizing printing/shipping/promoting/money for the most part. So when this film comes rolling out, don’t send Kane heaps of PM’s and E-mails about how you can order, because it will drive him up the wall and it’s also what I’m here to take care of.

Due to (very) popular demand as well as a bit of a motivational nudge from me, Kane has decided to put together a full length film. It will be titled “Showcase” as it will be exactly that, a showcase of some of the very best Adelaide has to offer in the riding scene, with some more Australia-wide aspects thrown in for diversity’s sake. There is still a few shoots that Kane wants to put into it and quite a few organizational things to be done, so it won’t be available for several months. One of the main things we want to offer is a very competitive price. This won’t get us rolling in the green stuff, it’s both a dabble into hugely competitive market of film production and an opportunity for Kane to display the vast talent and high level of quality you’ve all no doubt come to expect when you cruise into the “Phat Vids” section and see he’s got something new to show everyone.

Postage Australia-wide will be part of the film’s price tag, and it will feature
-60+ minute play length (not including special features)
-Professionally done, high quality printed CD’s and cases
-Footage from both national and state races
-Plenty of special features (crash section, deleted scenes, director’s commentary and more.)
-That warm fuzzy feeling you get when you watch Kane’s mini-films

I’m going to be funding this project, so the first run of DVD’s will be of about 200 copies. You will be able to pre-order through me closer to the completion date, but that won’t be for a while. Also- should we sell out of DVD’s we will put an order in for more, so by no means are the first 200 the only copies ever going to come into existence. We just want to see how things pan out, because as a fifteen year old I don’t have thousands of dollars to pour into something without an idea of how it will end.

We’d love some feedback for this; particularly on what you think is a reasonable price as well as some features you’d like to see in the film. Nothing will be written off as a stupid idea, so just let us know what you think.

Also- please don’t ask things like “When will it be done?”, “Where can I pay for it?” and “Can I pre-order now?”. All I know at this stage is it will take a few months to get everything finalized. I’ll let everyone know about payment options closer to the release date, just sit tight for now

Note to business owners: If you would like to get aboard as a sponsor, please contact me via PM and we can discuss our options. More sponsors= less overhead costs=cheaper sales price=more sales= more exposure for your product
