VICARII PRODUCTIONS is in the business of either creating new film and television productions or at the very least examining existing intellectual properties to see if they can be transformed into viable commercial product.   We have no interest in art house films - they don't feed the kids! 

Every film or television production begins with an idea.  It is just after this point that the process of turning an idea into a business - and that's what films and TV shows are - goes wrong.  The idea usually becomes somebody's baby and from that point on they will pursue it regardless of creative, market or economic logic. Such ideas are bound to fail because market forces determine whether a film or television story will be appreciated and taken to heart enough by the viewing public for them to put their hands in their pockets and buy tickets at the box office.

Only a minute percentage of film and television ideas ever put money in the pockets of those who began the long journey from idea to finished product.  Film scripts can lay on dusty shelves for decades - it took Mel Gibson 13 years to bring The Passion of the Christ to the screen!

Some of the stories on this website were conceived decades ago and have undergone revision after revision as technology and market forces change around them.  VICARII PRODUCTIONS and those who have contributed to these projects are in this business for the long haul and that is why we have a large and diverse body of work in progress.

We subject all raw story ideas to a rigid set of qualifying questions before we ever seriously put pen to paper.   If the original idea does not pass muster it dies right there.  We expect the projects we invest time, talent and money into to work - and so we will keep polishing each idea you see on these pages until its time and opportunity arrive.
