Operning Act Productions: One Shtick to Save them All!

FREE DVD for those who contribute at "Protector" level or higher.  Also other freebies for the higher contributions!!

Our Story

Upon completion of the film, we want to be able to bring the film to YOU - so please join us in our marketing campaign!

 

We are eagerly working on post-production of our full length narrative feature film, "The Fellows Hip: Rise of the Gamers". A family friendly comedy of 4 teenage gamers. We have been able to uniquely showcase the Lord of the Rings Online game.

 

The Impact

If our film is not able to obtain a substantial marketing budget, it could limit our ability to fulfill its fullest potential. Who wants that? We made this film to be a voice for everyone who is geeky about something - its time they heard from us!

 

What We Need & What You Get?

The $5,000 is going towards 1) securing a distributor for the film, 2) we are also looking at a DIY distribution model. Either way this is going to take a lot of resources. Its not a question of funding out film for completion - that is currently happening, its helping us reach YOU - the fan; why we did this film in the first place.

We are offering you to be on the journey with us and to obtain a rank in our growing army (see the list to the right)! You will then be immortalized with YOUR NAME in our film! Should you reach the $500 mark - you'll get the chance to talk with the Director and Producers personally, as you've gone from foot soldier to officer material! :)

Other Ways You Can Help or Contribute?

This business is all in who you know. Help us in spreading the word and making strategic contacts to help in getting the film out there. We all know somebody.

This is what separates us, the independent, from the studio system.  We do not pretend to dictate to you - we invite you to join us on the journey! So, pick your war banner and Express Your Indie!!

Week 1 update:

Week 1 and we are over 25% to our goal !! Thank you everyone for the support. We are very excited and can't wait to bring this movie to you !!

Review: The Fellows Hip: Rise of the Gamers

E-mail Print PDF

Those of you who have been following our site for the past few months know that GPX Gaming has been supporting a little independent movie called The Fellows Hip: Rise of the Gamers from Opening Act Productions. On December 22, OAP held an invitation-only advance screener for the completed film, and yours truly was honored to be among those invited. On the drive to the theater, I looked to the sky (a welcome change from the miles of interstate and traffic) and saw it painted in hues and textures that would have left J.R.R. Tolkien at a loss for words (of course, I'd forgotten my camera, so you'll just have to visit Fairfax one winter afternoon and see it for yourselves). I knew right then and there that it was going to be a good night.
