Medium

This would be a six to eight episode limited series.

Why this Medium

It makes sense in this medium because the story requires world exploration and character exploration. A limited series allows more time to explore the characters and the world, yet it has a definite end, unlike a standard television series.

Platform

This limited series would work best if it was released on a streaming platform, such as Netflix.

Why this Platform

When it's released on a streaming service, the audience has the choice to either take their time and explore the world at their own pace, or they can view the whole thing at once like a long movie. The story works well either as a character exploration over a long period of time or as an epic story. The audience can also re-watch the series easily to get a better understanding of the world.

Additive Comprehension

The additive comprehension is a storyworld reveal. We learn what happened in the Yulia Sector and how they learned to establish a society. It's a success because it is at this point in the story when the UN realizes that they can learn to adapt to this alien planet.
