Jack Stone: Fez/Off came about when four guys had nothing to do for a day. Kieran had previously worked with Dan Gould and Sam Milsom on a community video project and, admiring their enthusiasm and sensing like minds, he and Tom Webb teamed up with them to make a film about their action hero character, Jack Stone.
Stone is your typical straight-to-video action lead (usually played by the likes of Brian Bosworth or Rutger Hauer), a dumb man in a clever world, who, somehow, always manages to outsmart and outgun his foes.
This was the first film that we got to try out our new special effects software on and, boy, does it work. You'll have to wait for the full movie before you can see the results, though.
Gwailo Films, Cobwebb Productions and The Big Bag of Nuts hope to develop Stone into a franchise character. A sequel is already being discussed
