Start-Up is an independently produced feature length film entirely cast, crewed and shot in Kansas.
This movie is a thrilling yet edgy action-comedy that promises to take you on an exhilarating journey, all while you ride shotgun in a 1979 Dodge Ram Monty Mobile getaway vehicle.
Featuring a cast and crew consisting of more than a hundred Kansas locals, our objective was to create a film that celebrates the talent abundant in the Midwest and captures the spirited joy of collaborating as a tight-knit group of independent friends within the video production industry.
Penned by Kansas natives Meridth Konicki, Shane Konicki, and James Luce, this movie was carefully cast to showcase the talents of local media personalities, stage actors, skilled stunt performers from nearby live event venues, and accomplished film actors from the region.
Additionally some of the best local cinematographers, gaffers, audio technicians and rising student creators took part in the making of this film.
Filmed on-site at various small businesses in Kansas, this movie highlights a community of individuals coming together to proudly display their town’s strong sense of unity and their shared commitment to advancing the local film industry in Kansas.
