The Companion 12 Nov 2020 Reduced Te Companion Where Fans Go After the Show We’re creating “The Athletic” for Entertainment Lawrence Kao: [email protected] Nick Hayward: [email protected] November 2020 What Is the Companion? We’re the ultimate companion app for passionate fans who want higher quality content around flms, shows and games. It’s what the Athletic is doing for sports coverage or the Atlantic is doing for news and culture.

We decided to create value by building a platform. This separates us from the other competitors. Competitor Apps are PDF Readers, which their fans hate. Our app’s flexibility takes us onto the path to becoming the Platform. “For the overwhelming majority of traditional publishers, so as is at Future, PDF readers are the default app because the process of a print publication treats the PDF as the fnished product. We experimented with interactive apps, but it didn’t increase magazine sales so it was deemed absurd to do anything else but a PDF reader. It’s why We Know our Next Step Is To Grow From I left.” 300 To 1,000 Members - James Hoare, Editor-in-Chief at Future Publishing Te TV & Film Indusry Is We’ve Identifed the Bigges $450 Billion Annually Category: Sci-Fi TV viewers watch sci-f 1-in-3 monthly Stranger Things The Mandalorian The Handmaid’s Tale People in the US Netflix Disney+ Hulu consider themselves 200 Million sci-f fans Netfix Top Sci-Fi & Fantasy are Netfix’s biggest Category investment category Westworld Avengers Star Trek: Picard HBO Marvel Studios Amazon Fandom Is for Life: Tey Inheri It From Teir Parents and Pass It Onto Teir Kids.

Since they didn’t have access to a plotter, plans had to be printed on A4 paper and stuck together, in a circle. The small details of the gate had to Tweet be drawn up from scratch, using photos and video footage. The skeleton of the gate is made up of 18 X-shaped pieces, and the spinning part is made from small planks. 89 The intricate stargate symbols had to be painstakingly carved, from wood, and chevrons first had to be carved from Styrofoam. The back of the stargate, though painted in gray, is totally fake, but the front looks realistic enough, with chevrons locking and everything. Thanks to an inner track, it even spins. Mango wasn’t too satisfied with the paint-job, but all in all this is a geeky masterpiece, just like the Stargate Share home-cinema . Be sure to check the video Mango made, at the bottom of the post. ..

  • Showcase Announces Start of Production on New Canadian Original Series Travelers Starring Eric Mccormack and Created and Written by Brad Wright
    Showcase Announces Start of Production on New Canadian Original Series Travelers Starring Eric McCormack and Created and Written by Brad Wright New Sci-Fi Drama Produced by Peacock Alley Entertainment Inc. in Association with Showcase and Netflix For additional media material visit: http://www.corusent.com/properties Follow us on Twitter at @CorusPR To share this socially, please copy/use the following URL: http://bit.ly/20R4O91 TORONTO, April 19, 2016 – Showcase announced today the start of production on the new Canadian original sci-fi series Travelers. Shooting on location in Vancouver, the time-traveling sci-fi drama is produced by Peacock Alley Entertainment Inc., in association with Showcase and Netflix. The series will air exclusively on Showcase in Canada and stream on Netflix internationally later this year. Broadcast and streaming details will be announced at a later date. “Travelers joins Showcase’s critically acclaimed roster of hit dramatic series and we’re thrilled to work with such an esteemed group of Canadians to create this new, homegrown drama,” said Daniel Eves, Senior Vice President, Kids and General Entertainment Content. Hundreds of years from now, the last surviving humans discover the means of sending consciousness back through time, directly into people in the 21st century. These "travelers" assume the lives of seemingly random people, while secretly working as teams to perform missions in order to save humanity from a terrible future. The travelers are: FBI Special Agent Grant MacLaren (Eric McCormack), the team's leader; Marcy (Mackenzie Porter), a young, intellectually disabled woman in the care of her social worker, David (Patrick Gilmore); Trevor (Jared Paul Abrahamson), a high school quarterback; Carly (Nesta Marlee Cooper), a single mom in an abusive relationship; and Philip (Reilly Dolman), a heroin- addicted college student.
