New Post Apocalyptic Webseries, SHINY NEW THINGS, breathes diversity into sci-fi apocalyptic genre

Fort Lauderdale, Florida Jul 15, 2019 (Issuewire.com)  - SHINY NEW THINGS is set in a futuristic world ten years after a nuclear event decimated much of the population and natural resources. After which, a new government group, The Faction, rose and infiltrated major cities around the world.  People had begun adjusting to a new life of extreme poverty and starvation and humanity was on the brink of extinction when they swooped in with food, shelter, and promises. From the surface, everything looks normal, except for the armed guards patrolling the streets.

Lakeisha Jackson of Golden Hour Films, known as the creator, writer, and executive producer of the vampire series Sunrise Tonight, will launch a crowdfunding campaign for the web series, SHINY NEW THINGS via Seed and Spark (https://www.seedandspark.com/fund/shinynewthings). The series will be directed by Jackson. SHINY NEW THINGS is a dark sci-fi digital series exploring power, vengeance, and sacrifice in an uncertain future, from an inclusive perspective.

"I want to tell heart-wrenching stories from the perspectives of strong, diverse minority cast and crew. My goal is to create and film projects right here at home in Florida. I'm not going to L.A to ask permission to put people who look like me in front of or behind the camera."

SHINY NEW THINGS will be crowdfunded via Seed and Spark and have incentives as diverse as the cast and crew! From personal thank you videos from cast members, to an exclusive behind the scenes table read with the entire cast and executive producer credit, there is something cool for everyone at every level.
