Periscope Pictures

Periscope Pictures is a Canadian production company founded in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, in March 2010 by producers and writers Cheryl Wagner and Harmony Wagner. The company develops and produces screen-based entertainment, with documented work spanning preschool web programming and short films. Its first reported venture was Bunny Bop!, a 15-episode preschool web series launched on February 3, 2011. The project was notable for receiving financial participation from the Independent Production Fund's Pilot Web Drama Fund, placing the company among early Canadian producers working in a professionally financed web-series environment. Periscope Pictures' documented output also includes short-form narrative films. Harmony Wagner wrote, directed, and produced Vast, a story about a young teenager who wakes to find that he may be the last person on Earth. The film received the Viewer's Choice award at the 2011 Island Media Arts Festival in Charlottetown and represented Harmony Wagner's first directing effort. Another short, Lucky 7, was written and directed by Jason Rogerson and produced by Harmony Wagner. The comedy centers on the consequences of an office lottery pool and won the 2010 CBC 321 Award for Prince Edward Island. The available reference material presents Periscope Pictures primarily as an independent Atlantic Canadian screen-content producer rather than as a large entertainment conglomerate or a consumer-facing media label. Its known work demonstrates an interest in both children's programming and independently produced short fiction, while its founders' combined writing and producing backgrounds suggest a creator-led operating model. No reliable information in the supplied sources establishes a current website, ownership structure, corporate parent, public listing, broader distribution footprint, or present operating status. Accordingly, the company's historical activities and productions can be described with confidence, but its current business scale and active portfolio require further verification.

Periscope Pictures was established in March 2010 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, by producers and writers Cheryl Wagner and Harmony Wagner. The company's documented identity is that of an independent Canadian screen-production venture creating web and short-film content. The supplied reference does not identify a corporate parent, investor group, public listing, or separate distribution company, so the available record is centered on its founders and productions. The company's earliest documented activity was Lucky 7, a short comedy written and directed by Jason Rogerson and produced by Harmony Wagner. Built around the misfortune of an office lottery pool, the film won the 2010 CBC 321 Award for Prince Edward Island. This recognition established an early connection between Periscope Pictures and the regional Canadian media community. Periscope Pictures then moved into preschool web programming with Bunny Bop!, its first reported venture. The 15-episode series launched on February 3, 2011. It was among the early series to receive financial participation from the Independent Production Fund's Pilot Web Drama Fund, a detail that places the project within the emerging Canadian digital-production economy of the period. The series also indicates that the company's activity was not limited to adult-oriented independent film, extending instead to children's and preschool entertainment. The company also produced Vast, written, directed, and produced by Harmony Wagner. The short follows a young teenager who awakens to discover that he may be the last person on Earth. Vast was recognized by audiences as the Viewer's Choice at the 2011 Island Media Arts Festival in Charlottetown. It was also Harmony Wagner's first directing effort, making the production significant both as a Periscope Pictures project and as an early milestone in the founder's development as a filmmaker. Taken together, the documented work shows a small, creator-led company operating across web series and short films, with activity in children's programming, comedy, and speculative or dramatic storytelling. The available material does not establish later productions, current executives, ownership changes, or whether the company remains active. Those aspects should therefore be treated as unverified rather than inferred from the company's historical credits.
