In association with BHT Films, KnightVision is developing a feature film. Set in a near-future dystopian society ruled by a giant corporation called The Corpse and regulated by martial law, "Chimacum Island" will be filmed in the lush environment of the Olympic Peninsula. It is the story of an aging, cynical fisherman faced with making a choice that could be fatal, the choice that all men face: whether to submit to oppression, or risk everything for freedom. "Indian Island" is a project of Terrence Knight and Ben Tomson, who are jointly developing the production, including the screenplay. Ben Tomson is much reknowned in the film industry, particularly for his extraordinary technical skills, including special effects and motion graphics. His credits include work on "Forgotten Bayou", "River Restoration Northwest", and "Project Bluebird". Also consulting on the script is Steve Crosland, an experienced cinema technician with many TV credits.

We were very happy to have the opportunity to work on this important and exciting production. JLT's staff brings the kind of expertise and professionalism to projects that producers are always looking for – they made us look good.
The topic was forest reforestation, but we took a dramatic approach, telling the story from a scientific, historical, and character-driven perspective. And this piece marked the first time that producer/director Terrence Knight composed original music.

But maybe they don't have to be. There was a time when much of western Washington state was the site for numerous alternative "experimental" social colonies, and now there's a renewed interest in exploring how we can best manage our social and economic lives. Once again the Olympic Peninsula has emerged as a living-on-the-edge kind of spot where people – lead largely by a growing generation of innovative organic farmers – are rethinking what it all means.
In "Utopia" we'll revisit the lives of these intrepid pioneer radicals, and along the way, we'll have a lot to say about how folks today are working to keep the spirit of real freedom alive.
