Kingdom Sight Studios and Parables Announce First of Kind Reality Series “Behind the Scenes: A High School Story”

olympusat-logoKingdom Sight Studios and Parables prepare to launch Behind the Scenes: A High School Story, a documentary style reality show that provides viewers with an unprecedented look behind the challenges of indie filmmaking and the passion that drives them on.

The Story follows Nathan and Mike Flack the VP of Kingdom Sight and chronicles their efforts as they work through all the facets of making a film, from script to casting, to production, to the final product.

They are a David to the Goliath of Hollywood. Faced with several insurmountable odds, the pair takes viewers on an intimate and emotional walk through the drama of slaying the giants of an accelerated timeline, the struggles of trying to secure funding, finding the right cast and 6 weeks of production in a state where the weather can change in an instant. Victory comes with keeping faith alive.

“They’re not from Hollywood. They don’t have named actors or a recognizable face. They don’t have a big budget, or any budget for that matter. They don’t do things like others do, and that’s exactly how they like it,” stated Isaac Hernandez, VP of Programming for Parables.

This is a Parables original that will premiere on Upliftv this spring.

“Our goal is to tell great stories that connect with people where they are. We don’t want to be something we’re not. We’re not making a big budget blockbuster but we want our films to look and feel like one,” says Nathan Blair, owner/writer/director of Kingdom Sight Studios. “This is a mission, a calling that has been put on us. We want people to watch our films and walk away inspired to grow closer to Christ, whether that’s a re-connection or a first-time meeting.”

Parables, a TV Network with a Christian World View, Brings Premium Entertainment to Families Across All Platforms

Since its inception in 2009, Parables has proven the remarkable interest and appetite for quality Christian-themed entertainment content. As time has passed, the network’s audience has steadily increased worldwide, enticed by thought-provoking stories of faith that share God’s life-transforming truth –a message of hope, compassion and love.parables_v3

Families no longer have to wait for Christmas to come around every year for uplifting programming. Today, the faithful can watch an unrivaled library of the most recent Christian movies and exclusive faith-based content whenever and wherever they want, using the latest digital streaming technology.

Parables offers a Subscription Video On Demand service though its website and mobile devices. Viewers can also watch On Demand or the Live Stream with their Parables subscription on televisions with Apple TV or Roku.

Parables’ programming consists of mostly Christian movies, documentaries, reality shows, comedy shows, music specials, children’s programming and original productions. These programs are values-driven, inspiring and encourage conversation about topics that are culturally relevant to practicing Christians.

“I believe the public is seeking entertainment but want it to be not only family-friendly but actually God affirming, and most Christian movies provide all of that with creative insight,” stated Isaac Hernandez, VP of Parables. “It is important to note that Parables does not hold doctrinal or theological positions, so there might be content that a particular viewer could disagree with but nonetheless, the basic tenets of Biblical teachings are strictly adhered to.”

Parables was developed to provide families with an alternative to traditional network television. What sets it apart from any other Christian network that may showcase preachers and teachers is its absolute focus on providing faith-based entertainment.

“The service is very different, and as a Christian I am now able to be entertained or educated with confidence that always a Christian message will be at the core,” wrote a Parables viewer on the network’s website. “It is so comforting to know that the films I am viewing will not contain profanities or disgraceful worldly behavior.”

Another subscriber noted: “We’ve been watching Parables movies from a local channel most Saturdays. But, now, with a subscription to Parables our viewing vistas have expanded greatly. No more questions of ‘what to watch’? Or ‘have I purchased this movie yet’? Or ‘does Netflix carry this movie’? They’re all on Parables for the most part.”

Hernandez highlighted that there are abundant plans for Parables’ future, including the launch of a Spanish-language sister network that will bring top-rated faith-based entertainment television to Hispanic families looking for spirit-enriching programming. “Everything we create comes after prayer and God’s direction,” he asserted. “We are changing the world one story at a time.”
