Zipperdude Productions Zipperdude Productions Inc is a small, local film studio located in Sooke, BC specializing in live action content. A comedy show based on a news station.

2008
The studio formed when Chris "Zipperdude" Lumley, and Chris "Angelswords" Pollitt, got together and started writing stories that they wanted to be turned into movies. This eventually led to the idea to make and release a video on Youtube. They made a 20 minute, 2 part movie called "Take 1 Bloopers" and quickly after release, both men decided to continue with movie making, and make Take 1 Bloo

pers into a series. Before Episode 2 of Take 1 Bloopers was released, Sam Stokoe joined the studio as a founder. During this year, the studio decided to start another series, called "Channel "B" Blooper News". Another show called "KILL WOODY!!!" was also released, based on Chris trying to kill a wooden block. Despite both series having 2 episodes and a small fan-base, the shows were canceled.
2009
In early 2009, Co-Founder and actor Chris Pollitt left the studio, leaving only Chris Lumley and Sam Stokoe as the remaining founders. Sam Stokoe took over Chris Pollitt's position of Co-Host for Take 1 Bloopers. Zipperdude Productions Inc started two new shows in this year, "The Panther Show" a talk show with The Pink Panther being the host, and "Band O'Bloopers" a show where music star Sam S. makes bad music videos. The Panther Show was canceled after two episodes, with Take 1 Bloopers and Band O'Bloopers being the only shows produced.
2010
Take 1 Bloopers: The Movie was made! (T1B:The Movie) it marked the third season of Take 1 Bloopers, the studio's longest running series! Also in this year, the studio released it's first short movie; "Secret Agent Chris"
2011
The studio released it's second short movie: "The Lineup". Production also started on a new show, titled "You know your a man when.." which showed various ways to tell if your a man. It's loosely based on the show "Are you smarter then a fifth grader?" After two episodes, the show was canceled. Another show was created, titled "Sam's House", a spin-off of Take 1 Bloopers. Take 1 Bloopers was also rumored to be canceled.
2012
In Early 2012, Take 1 Bloopers was revealed to have been put on hold, not canceled. In mid-2012, Zipperdude Productions Inc. Started another studio to produce video game related videos and movies. The Studio, GamerHaus Productions (Formally GoonHaven Productions) built up as Chris Lumley as lead scriptwriter, director and editor, released three episodes of a Minecraft reboot of "The A-Team" before being put on hold. Band O'Bloopers also released it's last song before being put on hold due to production starting on a new show titled "COMMANDO". The show was to be based on a elite military squad betrayed by the government and on the run to clear their names. The show is still said to be in Pre-Production. In late-2012, Zipperdude Productions Inc and GamerHaus Productions announced IL-2. A series based on A World-War-2 plane squadron. Nothing is currently known about the state of the series. Also in late-2012, Zipperdude Productions Inc. started releasing weekly podcasts titled "Nerds Cubed", releasing 6 episodes before being canceled due to increasing difficultly of acquiring a venue to record. The studio was also rewarded a Youtube Partnership at this time.
2013
In early 2013, The studio released it's third short movie "When I'm Chris and Sam". In Mid-2013, the studio released it's fourth short movie, titled "The Escape". The movie, made in the span of two weeks, took place at the local high school, where students are trying to escape detention. About 3 weeks after the release of "The Escape", Zipperdude Productions Inc. announced another short movie, titled "STAR TREK: EMCS". Production on this started on March 26th, and was released in mid-April. During Production of STAR TREK: EMCS, The studio started releasing daily "Behind-the-scenes" videos detailing production of the movie. These ended after 5 episodes, but were very popular. One week after the release of STAR TREK: EMCS, The studio announced another short movie "The A-Team", based on the popular TV show. The studio produced "Behind-the-scenes" videos similar to the ones that were released when "STAR TREK: EMCS" was in production. During Production of the A-Team; Zipperdude Productions Inc. received a new logo and a new look. The website also went through major changes. "The Escape" and "The A-Team" were both premiered at EMCS: Final Projects Night, along with a music video directed and edited by Chris Lumley, premiered for two nights at EMCS: Final Projects Night with a very positive response. Chris Lumley was awarded the "EMCS Senior Film Production" award for 2013. The Studio also finally upgraded their aging Sony Camera with a new Canon 1080p Camcorder, much to Chris' excitement. :D
2014
The studio was relatively quiet for the first few months of 2014, until March when the studio released the first short of the year titled "The Quest for Burgers" featuring Chris Lumley, Sam Stokoe and Chris' BMW. This was the only video to be released this year due to technical difficulties with aging equipment, but the studio took this time to write several new scripts; later to be revealed as over 32 new scripts. A new Youtube channel "ZDPlays" was launched, featuring video game videos from Chris "Zipperdude" Lumley & Friends. In December the Zipperdude Productions Inc. teased a new show, with a trailer to be released before the end of the year. This is did not happen and shortly after Chris "Zipperdude" Lumley had reported "we got a little to excited and ahead of ourselves, we'll be releasing more information soon!"
2015
In March the studio had revealed it had re-structured it's management and announced a "Board of Directors" consisting of Chris Lumley, Sam Stokoe, Jared Hampson, Jordan Henneberry, Angel Fitzner, Trevor Flood & Doug King. In October, Zipperdude Productions Inc announced they are sponsoring Sooke Harbour Players production of "The Who's TOMMY" and are filming and making the production into a DVD. Also in October, the studio released a surprise reveal of a Take 1 Bloopers revival, titled "T1B" and shortly released the beginning of the pilot episode as a sneak peak. When asked whats changing in the re-boot; show-runner Chris Lumley replied "We're doing more script based skits, and generally moving away from random ideas to fully developed skits, really. We're going for an old show, new tricks feel for it, and I think the new name and logo represents that really well." The studio is now said to be in heavy production on an action series for Youtube.

Merry Christmas to everyone!

07/12/2016

Hello everyone! We've been quiet for the past little while and I'd like to take some time and talk to you all about why.

During the past few weeks we've been hard at work with three massive projects - even bigger then both the DVDs we've made. Work on these projects is moving at an incredible pace, so much so that you can all expect a teaser for the first of three, sometime before the new year. :)

We've been hiring! That's right, our small humble studio is growing once again, we now have a tag-team of editors and actors ready to work!

Our second channel; Nocturnal took a three-week hiatus due to scheduling conflicts and put the time to good use; you can expect a brand new- live action series from them very soon. :)

I want to thank each and every one of you for supporting this humble studio, from which I started over 8 years ago. We've been, seen, and done so much and we have so much more to do.

Thank you everybody, and happy holidays!
-Chris Lumley and the ZDPI Team.
