Premiere of Data Breach: An animated feature in the New Age of Heroes series!

Join us for the premiere and a conversation with the artists tonight, April 9, at 4 pm! Register for the event HERE!

In Data Breach (2020), the NAOH series takes on a completely different style as it goes two-dimensional in animation, and brings even more dimensions to new and old characters in the Spectrum Cinematic Universe. 

In this short film you will get to know more about these heroes than ever before. Incidents from Dragon’s past, the ancient family of Astrosatis, the myths behind Creative Chaos, the darkness of the White Wolf, and what Specter does when he’s not running after the Strike.

We created this film last year virtually, with Colm, Leo B, and Ben all signing in from Montreal, Aidan from Toronto, and I, Sierra from British Columbia! I helped produce this movie along with the incredible help from Katie and Cody, who was the lead producer, as well as Felipe who finished the post-production. Although it was a challenge, we all made a story we are proud of, and we hope you enjoy it! 

Here’s what the main cast had to say about the lows and highs of working from home:

Colm

Low: A lot longer to get a script greenlit

High: Being able to finish it with not a lot of effort

Ben

Low: The cons about making Data Breach was the limited time we had to tell the stories we wanted to in the film. Also this was out of the blue! We had a whole different film in mind during the early brainstorming process so we weren't prepared for it, since we expected we’d be making the final N.A.O.H film.

High:The pros about this is that we get to share our thoughts and communicate with each other and have fun along the way! Sure it may seem like it took forever to get approval for our film to finally be green lit but it was worth the effort! I couldn't ask for a better team to do it with!

Leo

Low: The low is that you interact less with the others from the team, and it can limit the spectrum of acting.

High: The one pro I can think of is that it saves us time travelling to the studio!
