I don't understand the connect between this mission style and Grade Nine. I think you need to stick to your grade nine look.

Jay R.
Posted 6 months ago

Hi Cathy, This mission style is a tribute the 1980's classic "Conan The Barbarian" - the scene we choose is a parody of the "Riddle of Steel" scene from the movie. Folks who grew up in the era get it no problem. It is also a tip of the hat to our D&D crowd.

For all of the effort put into costumes & setting I would have liked the tone of the the voice to be played on as well (deeper?) ...& perhaps some type of reaction from the 2nd character...even a grunt, lol. The explanation itself was okay though.

Mostly bike inner tubes cut up and wrapped around patches of fur and fur coats. Armour is inner tube layered over cardboard w/some twine for stitching. My under-robe is burlap and landscape netting.

Lu C.

The scene (costumes) did add value (interest) so that I hung in to appreciate the authenticity of the message and to the movie itself.

Jay R.
Posted 6 months ago

Thanks for hanging in there - We found the glasses amusing - especially when you consider how much effort we put into the rest of the production design - Besides, I NEVER take my glasses off.

Lu C.
Posted 6 months ago

Acting lacking though the last few seconds was a pleasant surprise. Basically turned off at moment one by the glasses. Unless I missed their purpose, losing the glasses would have been advised.

Connor B.

Jody M.

Gill R.

Great little Conan homage there, really enjoyed that. You can tell the films that really care about this competition, they put the effort in to entertain with each mission.

Amanda C.

Conan! haha good work guys love the costumes!

Colin T.

excellent job on the mission, very well and uniquely delivered. And loved the touch with the costumes.

Loretta W.

Well done. Capturing the thoughts, imagination and actions of this particular age group is key to understanding growth

Betty H.
Posted 6 months ago

Your Genesis video explained your vision well. I loved that an elder spoke to the younger teaching important lessons. As you say, fitting in isn't easy. Not sure about the add-on. I assume it is a quote from a warrior, but didn't feel it fit with project's mission. Overall, good work.

Jay R.
Posted 6 months ago

Thanks Betty - the easter egg after the bumper is a classic quote from Conan - this mission was a bit of a tribute to a scene from that film - to many of our fans it is a classic

Amy Z.

June B.

Love the concept. Some treatment to deepen the speaker's voice would have been cool - to emphasize the wisdom of the character. Good job!

Natalia N.
Posted 6 months ago

I totally agree! That would've definitely added to the coolness of the mission

Mackie B.

Totally Awesome! The costumes are true indi works of art. I thought you guys spent big bucks on the costumes. And when I found out that the costumes where just old fur coats and bicycle tiers it blew my mind. Rad!

Love how you did your approach for the Genesis video. Small world - I'm also from Vernon, B.C. and had a bunch of friends in Prince George. Good luck for the next stage.

Grayson W.

This is really well filmed...why do you need a million dollars to make your movie that takes place in a high school? Just get out there and do it, i dont think its bold enough to win this thing.

Also D&D is a bit too old school for most people now, only like underground nerds play it and they make up so little of the population ( i am in highscool). Another team used a LOTR reference and i think that stuck better

Jay R.
Posted 7 months ago

Thanks Grayson. I appreciate your confidence in our skills. All feature length films cost money - believe it or not, 1 mill goes very quick.
PS - There are more "nerds" out there than you think - they are all around you.

Andre v.

Love the warrior and quest type set-up. High school does polarize everything. Nicely done. (Life of a Locksmith)

Jac r.

Very nice. I would have really liked to see you wield that sword and chop someone's head clean off, but that…is another story.

Kerri S.

Loved it! Lots of insight into the personal life and story behind Grade Nine. Loved the Conan clip as well as old family photo's if the day!

Christina I.

hahahahaha super hilarious guys! where did you get those wicked costumes from? way to go, keep it up!!!

Jay R.
Posted 7 months ago

Costumes were cobbled together by Seth and I from old fur coats, bicycle inner-tubes & pieces of armour I made for a post nuke short.

Jeff C.
Posted 7 months ago

Beautiful as always - Jay in the conan costume= forever etched in my mind haha!

Christopher W.
Posted 7 months ago

Nice production values! It goes by pretty quickly and there's a lot of info, but I do get a sense that this is a genuine, personal project and that it will feel authentic. Also great to see the writer telling all this to the character that I'm gonna assume is meant as his on-screen surrogate. If this film doesn't make it to #1, you'd better find a way to get it made or I will rain fire upon you.

Love the Conan quote at the end!
