The First Six Videos

OUR WEB-SERIES HAS LAUNCHED

The Future Now team has been hard at work on our web-series which launched April 2022 and we’re excited to release more information on the first six episodes. Let us know which concept you’re most excited about in the comments below!

The Ecclesia

For thousands of years humanity has told stories of secret societies that control everything behind a shadowy veil. Those are just wild conspiracy theories though, right? Well, not in 2084. Meet the Ecclesia: an ultra-exclusive collection of the globe’s richest and most powerful people looking to guide humanity into the future. Rumour has it, they’ve been secretly pulling the strings behind every major policy decision since the 2040s. But they won’t rest until they complete their mission: making a perfect predictive engine (Future Now) so they will be able to tell the future and never let humanity slip into chaos again.

Watch the video now on YouTube or learn more on the Ecclesian page.

The Space Vikings 

The Mirror is a surveillance system that stores an exact digital copy of you that is controlled  and analyzed by corporations and governments to predict your every move. For most it’s just how life works, but not everyone agrees. Meet the Space Vikings: a ragtag group of hackers, anarchists, and other misfits who live aboard a spaceship partying and rebelling against tyranny in equal measure. Their ultimate goal is to carry out the Global Hack: a hack that could effectively shut down the Mirror and all its interconnected systems.

Galaxy’s Cutest Pet

Will competition shows still be around in 2084? You know it! And one of the biggest hits is The Galaxy’s Cutest Pet: a show where scientists genetically engineer the cutest animal possible and audiences at home vote for which one they think is the most adorable, with the chance to order a copy of the winner for themselves. It’s all cuddles and kisses until something goes wrong. Tune in to hear the full story about how the show collapsed and meet two of humanity’s biggest threats... Snuffy-Up and Mr. Big-Eyes. Yes, you read the right.

Spawning Titans

Rob has it all. A beautiful wife. A life on the most exclusive new colony on the Moon. And his miracle child, Asher, who was conceived as part of a test program for producing genetically-enhanced children. But everything is not as perfect as it seems.  Rob begins to suspect that something is deeply wrong with his son and the disturbing wolfpack mentality that the group of genetically-enhanced children carry themselves with. He soon finds himself caught up in a conspiracy that could change life on the Moon forever.

The Venusian Colony

How did a penal colony for political dissidents end up as a monarchy sitting atop one of the galaxy’s most valuable resources? Welcome to Venus: home of the universe’s strangest and harshest colony. Living in a city made up of helium blimps that float upon the heavy carbon dioxide atmosphere, the Venusians live an existence of subsistence in extreme conditions. They are always one mistake away from total collapse, but a potential marriage between their princess and the son of the world’s richest man could save them and secure their future.

The Drone King

Ever have a job you hated? It was still probably better than Fox Mavour’s. As a drone mining technician he spends his day completely isolated in space fixing mindless machines whose only purpose is to make the soulless conglomerate he works for even richer. But what if those machines weren’t mindless, after all? After reprogramming them so they could keep him company, Fox finds that these drones have developed personalities of their own, possibly the result of a virus. Soon will have to pick whose side he’s on: the drones’ or the company’s?
