2012 is around the corner, and as many know from either pop culture, films, the news or anywhere else, it marks the end of times according to a Mayan prophecy.
Of course, being the end of the world makes for a lot of sci-fi creation options.
In this case, a web series. So, getting back to a format I like very much, and as usual, offering this space to web series creators from everywhere is that I present to you 2012, the webseries, created by Guatemalan filmmaker Julio Ponce Palmieri , the webseries is focused on the events of the last day of the Mayan Calendar, December 21st, 2012, the episodes will tell the story of a handful of survivors who lived after a successful extraterrestrial invasion. Desperation and panic ensues worldwide as humanity has now become infected and is nothing more than a food source for the invaders. But is it those human survivors, who against all odds dig deep into their courage and attempt to overcome, guided mainly by the supernatural dreams of a virtually unknown Mayan god.
Produced alongside Freitas Films and his CEO Alex Freitas, who specializes in SFX, “2012” promises to be charged with wonderful visuals. The webseries was filmed during the harsh winter in Toronto as well as having some scenes filmed in Guatemala in the exotic locations of Lake Atitlan and Antigua Guatemala.
You can watch 2012 the webseries premiere on July 2012 on YouTube , but in the meantime you can check out the trailer.
It certainly looks promising, and with a bit more budget and production than the regular webseries.

This show makes me fearful of the future and makes me think am I good with God and if I die tomorrow is all foregiven and is everything right with the world but this show makes me think of the end and makes me fearful on pain of dieing and out of the blue it could just happen…Leaves me hopeless and scared of life but this show is based on what could happen and how the world is going to change in the future.
Scares me to Death and makes me feel depressed and dieing is going to hurt and people are going to chance and become self centered and selfish and….Great fear is going to come over us and we can die any kind of way…RATHER IT IS GOING TO BE BY FIRER AND SOME Building is going to fall on us and what this show is saying take your pick on Death or it means get ready for Death…Because it is coming your way and only God knows who is going to live or die but…Why not take a look at something that is going to happen sooner or later.?
