John Schmitz -- Log Lines

                                                                All are films

A desperate terraforming operation goes awry when a nasty alien race is discovered. Humans attempt to assimilate into the alien society with robot look alikes, to control the situation, while continuing to terraform. But an internal struggle in the human ranks arises when some believe it isn’t right to take this planet from the aliens, killing them, just to save themselves. A race against time ensues as the humans try to quell their differences before the aliens discover what is going on and all hell breaks loose.

            A streetwalker, or policeman who walks through the real world where everyone else is plugged into a virtual reality system, must stop a killer who has been preying on the vulnerable who are plugged in. Reports say he is almost invisible, and can navigate un-seeable spaces. Could he be part of the rich elite who owns such technology? And can he be stopped in time, before more murders take place?

            In a world where the line distinguishing man from machine is nearly invisible, a young robot ‘girl’ discovers a growing relationship between her and her classmate Zach.  As the relationship grows further, so does the robots confusion and curiosity. Just what is it that makes us human? What are feelings? How will society react to such a relationship? Will Zach choose her over his disapproving friends? These are just some of her thoughts…
