NICKY'S COUNTING PRODUCTIONS is a creative, award-winning film and video production company started in 2005 by CHRISTIAN O'NEILL and currently based in BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Our work is grounded in the personal aesthetic of Company Director Chris O'Neill and informed/inspired by the legacy of his late brother, Nicholas O'Neill, who is both the company's namesake and the subject, in one way or another, of our first two major film productions. Our approach is influenced by our long history as theater practitioners (which we were first), with an emphasis on education & dramaturgy, and with an overriding concern for the craft of traditional narrative storytelling. Our work is driven by an interest in challenging the assumed limitations of form, most often by hybridizing the twin languages of theater and film (or other seemingly disparate elements), and by an interest in subject matter that's on the fringe: magical realism, sci-fi/fantasy, paranormal, musicals, religious/spiritual/mythic/epic material...anything that dares to take on the relationship between the known and the unknown and that explores the human condition from extraordinary vantage points. That being said, we're interested above all else in mastering the tricky and elusive craft of strong narrative storytelling in whatever form it takes.

41, our award-winning collaboration with Breaking Branches Pictuers, is now on sale at a whole bunch of big retail websites like Netflix.com, Amazon.com, BestBuy.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Borders.com, Walmart.com. If anyone has time, please go to any of those sites and write a positive review of it or even just "Like" it if they have that option.
Once a film is accepted and listed by a vendor (note: some are still in process if not accessible on a site yet), the audience demand is then the primary influencer for retailers who are considering bulk orders of a film for their sites, and if successful there - into their stores. Positive reviews, rankings, sales or demand (or in the case of Netflix subscribers - the 'SAVE' of the film into your queue) are what can make the difference. In addition - individual consumers can be influenced by these testimonials, so it's a good idea to generate positive buzz on the sites to market to those single copy buyers as well.
Instructions:
The sites are all a little different, and you may need to register first, but generally here is what you do:
> Go to the website: (Netflix.com, Amazon.com, BestBuy.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Borders.com, Walmart.com
> Search for the film name
> Click on film title for all info and other options.
> 'Like' the film and/or enter a customer review/rating - (the more, the better).
(Note: the sites allow anonymous reviews, etc. and the contact information of the reviewers is not sold or accessible to anyone.)
Thanks to anyone who can help!!!
