Description:
On the Lam is an upcoming direct-to-digital feature comedy starring some of YouTube's biggest mega-stars. Script and pitch deck available.
Story: Two twenty-something female roommates are framed for murder. They embark on a road trip to find the real killer (or killers), avoiding the Feds and becoming unlikely YouTube celebrities overnight. The film is a comedic mash-up of Thelma and Louise, The Fugitive and Cannonball Run, re-imagined and retro-fitted for the YouTube generation.
Market Opportunity: Now is an ideal time to create and distribute feature-length comedy motion pictures targeted towards audiences aged between 15-34 – casting leading stars from social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat and Vine. In the past year there have been several movie releases that have capitalized on the model of casting social media stars, marketing to their audience, and distributing on a pay per view download basis.
