VIVIAN
HARPER,
PRODUCER
|
When Vivian was
a little girl she was present at a recorded audio interview with a man she only
knew as "Bob". Bob was dying of cancer, and eager to unburden himself of a
secret he had carried with him for years, and until then had been too
scared to tell. His story was of a visit from three aliens, to his
remote cabin in Northern Canada. It was not until many years later, after
the passing of Vivian's father, that Vivian heard the radio interview by
virtue of reel-to-reel audio tapes among her late father's belongings.
While the tapes
themselves were compelling enough for a feature film, Vivian's research
led her to the discovery that at the very same time Bob had been visited
by aliens, a US Air Force B-36 bomber had crashed in the same part of the
world, the wilderness of Northern Canada. And missing from the crash site
was a nuclear bomb that had been aboard the ill-fated flight. America's
first "broken arrow".
Vivian's
discovery of the two "coincidental" events and her own expertise in
studying the Mayan Calendar and the predictions for the year 2012 has led
to the creation of an exciting sci;fi/thriller screenplay entitled "Flight
2012".

CLIVE
SCARFF, SCREENWRITER |
Clive has been
writing for television, film, and print since 1985. A graduate of
Toronto's Ryerson University's Radio & TV Arts program, Clive also
has experience in camerawork, editing, and directing. He specializes in
spec screenwriting and writer-for-hire projects. Flight 2012 is his most
ambitious script yet, straying slightly from his usual genres of comedy
and sports. "The fact that Clive is not your typical "believer" brought an
extra level of scrutiny, even skepticism, to the project that has resulted
in a product that is more convincing, exciting, not without humour, and ultimately
believable, which is what we wanted" says producer Vivian Harper.
"I went into this project a
doubter, but after doing the research and listening to the audio tapes I
knew I had to write this script" says Scarff.
Clive lives on the west coast
of Canada, on Vancouver Island. |
