Director Jonathan King has wired some more production stills from REALITi: Aroha White as Jessamine; Michelle Langstone as Holly; Miranda Manasiadis and Nathan Meister as Meg and Vic. Currently shooting in Wellington: it's all coming together. I wrote the script years ago but only now do I realise that these were faces I had in mind.

Watch this: Space!

If you're in Wellington in the coming weeks and spot a film crew not on a $500+ million budget from Warner Brothers, it might be Jonathan King making REALITi, a new full-length feature film. Jonathan will be shooting with a small team in and around Wellington which, through the magic of cinema, will be transformed into a New Zealand city in the kind-of present day.

REALITi is a script I wrote for Jonathan in 2008. It's a talkie: a science fiction film with no special effects; an adult fantasy set in the New Zealand now. Pictured: Nathan Meister as Vic and Tim Wong as Lo.
