For the last two years we’ve been touring around the world and talking about idea of collaborative film production. It has been received surprisingly well, although - of course - some doubts have been placed. Alongside with working on Iron Sky, we’ve been designing, funding and building a platform we first called ‘Raven’s Nest’, then ‘Star Wreck Studios’, and now, as we are moving to private Alpha, the name has been fixed to ‘Wreck A Movie’.

The big idea behind Wreck A Movie is what we call wrecking - making films the Star Wreck way. We believe that interesting quality content can be produced via collaboration over the Internet, where resources and talent are abundant, and intelligent distribution on the other end provides a real ecosystem for films made this way.

Wreck A Movie is a collaborative film production platform. It’s free, and will be open for everyone once we enter Beta. In Wreck A Movie the user can both set up his or her’s own production and find people around the world to collaborate on different tasks around the film, as well as find interesting productions and artists and collaborate with them to help other films to be made.

While still in private Alpha, we restrict our users to only about 100, and we only have one production - that’s Iron Sky - but the tasks on Iron Sky are the real deal. The invitations to join as an Alpha user to Wreck A Movie will be sent out during this weekend to those who’ve already signed up to www.starwreckstudios.com as a Beta tester.

I’ll write more on Wreck A Movie later, when we are closing invitation-only Beta - but to make sure you’ll be on Beta list, go to www.starwreckstudios.com and sign up as Beta tester!

Here’s a screenshot of Wreck A Movie Alpha:

Have a great weekend!

EDIT: One thing I wanted to add just to see that this has really been under work for a pretty long time :)
