Adventurer, diver and amateur anthropolgist - captain of the SolarNavigator

INTRODUCTION

John Storm is the star protagonist and main character in the series of adventure books by Jameson Hunter. He is an amateur anthropologist keen on sports diving and rock climbing. He likes a challenge and cuts through the red tape much to the annoyance of many bureaucrats - but he gets the job done using his unorthodox methods and for that reason certain agencies who also cut to the chase, consult John on difficult cases.

Despite his no-nonsense approach to adversaries, John is also into ecology, alarmed about what politicians are not doing to save endangered species from the ravages of greed induced global warming. It's hardly surprising then that his first adventure is to try to save a humpback whale that is being chased by Japanese pirate whalers.

We are looking for scriptwriters, directors and producers to help turn this marine adventure into a 3D film, as part of the John Storm franchise. If you might be interested to come in on such a project at grass roots level please contact Blueplanet Netdirect Productions.

The story blend of fact and fiction is ideal adventure film material of the Moby Dick / Free Willy genre (Moby Dick was based on real whale attacks on whaling boats). FACT: A boat called Planet Solar completed the 1st solar powered circumnavigation in May of 2012 at an average speed of 2.36 knots (3mph) at a power to weight ratio of .99Kw/ton. The 32,100 mile voyage took just over 585 days (=72.63 miles/day). FACT: Solar Navigator (the real craft) has a power to weight ratio significantly more than 2Kw/ton and a superior hull-form such that it can produce turns of speed for film sequences.
