Cinema 2.0 or open source cinema

A Swarm of Angels updates the current filmmaking models of Hollywood and independent film to create cult cinema for the digital age.

Key concepts:
* Participative
Vote on major decisions, including which of two scripts goes into production. Post on the forum.
* Open source
Contribute to development and production through script input, materials creation, or be part of our distributed film crew.
* Creative Commons-licensed
Freely share the film. Sample project visuals for your own work.
* Crowdsourced
Feedback into the production, use your expertise, and become part of the team.

Whether you call it Cinema 2.0, or Open source cinema, it’s an innovative participatory experience you can be part of.

Our vision is to bring filmmaker and fan together into entertainment communities making distinctive films based on artistic choices not marketing ones. This is not about making a couple of bucks, but about making cinematic history.

A Swarm of Angels is a third way between the top-down approach of traditional filmmaking and the bottom-up nature of user-generated content. A way for anyone to influence the creation of a professional £1 million+ ($1.8M+) feature film.

We are gathering 50,000 people in a giant new media experiment to be part of an exclusive community which funds and helps make this film. We want people to freely download, share and remix the feature film and all original media made for this project and have embraced the flexible digital-age copyright of Creative Commons toward this end.

Invent the future of film, join the Swarm.
