Television, Video Game In 'Sanctuary' Future?

Here is part II of my interview with Damian Kindler.

Television, Video Game In 'Sanctuary' Future?

The series "Sanctuary" may have gotten its start on the Web, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's going to stay there.

The people behind the Web series, which can be found at Sanctuary For All, say that while their goal was to bring this show to computers everywhere, it doesn't have to stay there.

"You have to think of an idea that works seamlessly across multiple formats," Damian Kindler, the Stargate producer who is the creator of "Sanctuary" and chief executive of Stage 3 Media which produces the series, told SyFy Portal's Marx Pyle. You want "something you can push to mobile phones, to your iPod, to television, to DVD, [and something that] is a good interactive online experience and is a great standalone game. We create one type of entertainment -- different forms of it -- but this is the sort of format. We want to be the pioneers, the innovators, the perfectionists. That is it. That is our goal. That's the plan." [more]

Until next time... Marx out.
