About SANCTUARY & Episode Guides

There are monsters loose in the world. And they are the key to the future of our race.

Sanctuary is the first broadcast calibre sci-fi series developed specifically for the Internet and filmed entirely on Green Screen.



Stem cells, gene therapy, transplants, cloning… The very meaning of the word “humanity” changes daily in the modern world. But there is a darker side to the evolution of mankind, a truth only a few brave souls are willing to face:

The Show:
    * Each webisode of Sanctuary follows the exploits of Dr. Helen Magnus as she seeks out all manner of terrifying and monstrous creatures. She is aided in her quest by her reluctant protégé Will Zimmerman and her intrepid, if somewhat reckless daughter Ashley. Together they will be drawn into a frightening and mysterious world populated by beings that defy explanation.

    * Fusing stunning visual effects, Sanctuary takes the viewer into a thrilling world where science meets the supernatural. This fictional online universe fills the void left by traditional network television by providing multiple High Definition resolutions, immersive interaction, and direct communication between the viewer and the Sanctuary creative team.

    * We feature world class talent, including creature effects by Emmy Award winner Todd Masters, executive producers Martin Wood, John Smith, and Damian Kindler, game executive Marc Aubanel, online designer John Kalangis, and computer graphics designer Ron Martin. Add to this an internationally recognizable cast, these web broadcasts will be the highest quality and most technically advanced filmed content ever developed for the Internet.
