: : Hello everyone!
: : Like you guys, I too am an Ocean Girl fan. I've recently been making movies (amature) myself and had hoped to make and Ocean Girl movie. I compiled a screenplay, music, and I even have a cast, but the only think I don't have that I ABSOLUTLY need is an ORCA. Does anyone have any idea on how to make an ORCA set at LOW COST??? Most of the other stuff I can use natural scenery like beaches etc.., but I need ideas for an ORCA. Any would be VERY MUCH aprectiated!!

Have you heard of the saying:
Imitation is the most sincere form of flattering ??
I do think the whole idea of Ocean girl is the intellectual property of JMS.
(as they always say it in legal terms).
However I think it sort of depends on how far you are taking this film.
If you make a non commercial production and donƒGt charge for copies or
distribute it freely they have less reasons to get mad.
But you always have to be careful. Because some companies would get mad.
I wish you good luck with the filming.
