David C Cook and Creators of NOOMA Films Partner To Launch New Film Series Featuring Best Selling Author Francis Chan

David C Cook and Flannel (the creators of the award winning NOOMA films) are joining forces to create BASIC, a new film series featuring bestselling author Francis Chan.  The new film series comes on the heels of Chan's bestselling books Crazy Love (David C Cook 2008) and Forgotten God (David C Cook 2009).

"We are tremendously excited about this new partnership that combines two of today's best sellers.  Francis Chan's authenticity, passion, and ability to connect with people make him one of today's most popular authors and speakers.   Flannel's award winning films use incredible creativity, powerful messaging and the highest quality of cinematography.  Working in partnership allows us to push the envelope and deliver a film that will have tremendous impact," comments Jonathan Brown, Director of Business Development, Kingsway.

"Although we’re delighted that Crazy Love sales exceed 600,000 and NOOMA films sales exceed 2.3 million, the focus of this partnership is to change hearts and to inspire viewers to live as God intended," continued Brown.
 
For Chan, challenging Christians to be the church as described in Scripture means starting with three important and basic truths:  who God is; who Jesus is and who the Holy Spirit is - and adding the context of what it means for Christians.  The first film, set for release in July 2010, asks the question, "What does it really mean to fear God?"
 
For Flannel, adding the creative overlay to Francis' message was an opportunity of a lifetime.  "We instantly connected with Francis and his challenging message. The medium of film allows us to push creative and artistic boundaries and to deliver the message in a way that will resonate deeply with the audience," says Steve Carr, Executive Director of Flannel. 
Carr continues, "Working with Francis and David C Cook is incredible.  The chemistry and commitment to deliver well beyond expectations allowed us to take things to the next level and in ways that will surprise even a media savvy audience."
 
The first film in the BASIC Series is scheduled for release in July 2010.
