Upperworld Films makes movies. We are an independent film company working in Avon, Indiana. We are interested in stories that transport you to different worlds, stories that make you think and stories that make you feel a certain kinda way. We are currently working on our first major project. Read on for a very abridged story summary and information about the creators.

SUMMARY

Impoverished siblings, Mark and Tony rob people to survive. One day, they collect a mysterious invention that opens a hole in their floor. Tony falls in. Mark chases after, but to no avail. When they awaken, they are alone and unable to find each other.

It seems as though they are trapped in an enormous invisible labyrinth. The ground is sprinkled with dead people and discarded falderal. Mark and Tony are not the only people who have fallen in and not everyone is dead...

JAMES PORZIO

The stories we tell are the result of asking the question: What if reality was different? James plays with reality. He is our Special Effects Artist. Whether it's practical or virtual, if we want the moon to swallow the earth or a mountain that screams at trespassers we go to James to make it happen.
James has experience in amateur film productions which provided an introduction to the art of special effects. At nine years old he created a series of stop motion videos for youtube. He has since studied and practiced the art of virtual effects and practical effects for Upperworld Films.

ADRIANNA PORZIO

The worlds we create are empty of color, texture and cultural context until Adrianna puts her hands to them. She designs the wordrobe and the props. Each crown and each sword tells their own story whether they are from the time of Alexander the Great or thousands of years into the future.
Adrianna has performance experience from amateur film to theater. She has been commissioned to create dresses for weddings and proms and has designed costumes for cosplay. She has experience with special effects makeup as well as glamorized makeup. She currently practices her craft with Upperworld Films.

JAMZ PORZIO

We build worlds to be filled with events: Events that make us celebrate or mourn or make us curious. Jamz writes the story that we feed and decorate to bring it to life. When he gives us a story about a workaholic who gets fired from the embassy in Hong Kong because his boss is an alien clone, we go to work.
Jamz has written stories in the genre of science fiction since he was a student in the fifth grade; he has directed for theater and two amateur film productions; and he has obtained a Master of Music and a minor in Music Composition at SUNY College at Fredonia and Mercyhurst respectively.
