"Wea™ve had tremendous success with receptive financiers on projects such as aWhite Spacea™ and others, with initial funding already in place."

Colucci notes, aWea™re keeping a lot under wraps in line with announcement strategy, but the project is set in deep space, the year 2150; visually stunning, while at the same time, conveying a desolate landscape in line with the frightening themes at the core of the featurea™s storyline.a

aThe project has quite a bit on the table for Mike the Pike Productions and its shareholders as it marks the first feature film the company will engage in this year as part of its plans to produce no less than 5 feature films in the next 24 months,a states Newbauer. aWea™ve had tremendous success with receptive financiers on projects such as aWhite Spacea™ and others, with initial funding already in place.

The deal includes MTP receiving 33% in all forms of backend revenue as shared by producers (theatrical, DVD, VOD, merchandising and ancillary) with a Company credit on the feature. Currently secured crew and assets for aWhite Spacea™ include Director of Photography, Unit Production Manager, Production Designer, Visual Effects, Cast and Locations, which will be announced in line with the companiesa™ industry strategies through pre-pro, principle photography and post-production with a fully finished feature in Q3.

aI think we have tremendous opportunity with the team on aWhite Spacea™ toward an exponential return on sales and long-term revenues,a states Newbauer. aAs items are released in line with additional strategies for the project, I am confident we will attract long-term shareholders with solid potential for long-term growth; this, alongside the companya™s goals to uplist in the near future,a states Newbauer. aWea™ve yet to have an ideal opportunity to offer shareholders a dividend with weight. Since the restructure and, now, the momentum in our feature film division, it is our commitment to dividend shareholders from the companya™s revenue share in each project so they may reap the benefits of their investment in direct proportion to our projectsa™ successes.a
