Milton the Monster Hunter Television Web Series

This is a great chance to invest in what will undoubtedly become an iconic piece of kiwi comedy television.

We're on a mission to create a pilot episode for a television / online series entitled "Milton the Monster Hunter", a comedy New Zealand X-Files meets Dr. Who, where the hero and heroine travel across Aotearoa uncovering malicious, or just plain weird, supernatural happenings that have been swept under the rug by malicious and overly-bureaucratic DEC - Department of Environmental Concerns.

Once we have created this kick-ass, hilarious pilot episode we will be in a strong position to approach larger funders to financially back future episodes in the series.

The script for the pilot episode has been written. The cast and crew have been gathered. Shoot dates have been set. Noise and Pictures has already purchased filming equipment, lights, sound equipment, superfast computers and CG software...and are almost finished with location scouting. We managed to achieve all of this with the prize money from our short film "Brains" (https://vimeo.com/44494192), which won the first place New Zealand prize at the 48hour Film Festival, and "Rubble" (https://vimeo.com/93059096), the 2014 New Zealand runner up in the same competition.

Cast and crew will share in any profit that we attract for this series in the future. So the equipment is there, the team is assembled, all the ducks are in a row.

BUT...we still need money for the simple things that will put our directors, designers and actors out of pocket and into the poor house. Things like props, costumes, gasoline, and food.

Let me take a moment to excite you even more about the project - here is the synopsis for the pilot episode:

Milton is a lowly analyst at the Department of Environmental Concerns. He stumbles upon some evidence that NordOil is conducting illegal exploration off the coast of Wellington, which is disturbing an age-old sea creature (potentially a Taniwha!) which is wreaking havoc on the coastal communities as a result. Milton's evil boss at DEC, Kim, tries to cover this up, but Milton, with the help of his co-worker, Penelope, infiltrates the DEC's secret classified archives and discover that Kim is in NordOil's pocket and they plan on destroying the endangered monster. Penelope and Milton must foil the plans of NordOil and save the sea creature.

So, once this pilot is made, and we garner the big money from corporate fat cat funders, you'll see Penelope and Milton travel around New Zealand uncovering ever-stranger goings-on covered up by DEC: Sulphur Goblins in Rotorua; Ghost Moa in Te Anau; Dream Infiltrating Kea in Mount Cook. The possibilities are endless.

If you'd like to see a freakin' awesome New Zealand-based supernatural comedy series hit your computers and television screens in the near future, throw some cash behind it!
