Back in March of this year, on our show, we did a very candid interview with “Sanctuary” creator Damian Kindler and the series’ star Amanda Tapping. On June 5th our good friends over at OS News were able to have some time with Damian and talk a little more about the highly successful online program now that it has finally gone live.
Here is just a sampling of the questions asked by OS News and answers given by Damian:
How long does it take to completely finish a 16-minute webisode? Is it cheaper/faster than the traditional, less-computerized way?
Damian Kindler: Each webisode took months to render and post. There was very little time savings involved in shooting green screen as compared to standard shooting techniques. It’s benefits are that it allows Sanctuary to have a look and feel that other sci fi shows can’t achieve with normal backgrounds and locations.
What kind of obstacles do you face when marketing “Sanctuary” over the web instead of the TV?
Damian Kindler: Mainly reaching people. it costs a huge amount of money to launch an online ad campaign – not as much as TV or Film, mind you, but still expensive.
You can catch the entire interview by visiting the OS News Website HERE. This is an excellent follow-up interview to the pre-live “Sanctuary” one we did in March.
