Noey Productions was an independent film production company founded in on or about July 16, 2002 by Nick Phillips and Joseph Justus. Noey is a portmanteau of the names Nick and Joey. It is best known for its contributions to Ni-Ki-Oh!, as one of several production companies who created footage used in the series. Noey Productions produced several film shorts, such as 0009 and 0008, and documentaries, such as The Life of Joey Lee, but none were released before the company went defunct. It also produced a music parody album called The Arrival, but only a few tracks were ever released.
History
When Noey Productions formed in 2002, it absorbed Noey Games as its video game division, and assumed several film projects produced with the involvement of a founder since the founding of Noey Games as its own intellectual property, despite contrary evidence.
On September 8, 2002, Noey Productions acquired a second camera, making it capable of multi-camera film shoots, something which its main local competitor Cracked Egg Studios was not equipped for at the time.
Noey Productions developed and filmed several unique fiction projects, covering genres including crime thrillers and fantasy, but also attempted to develop sequels for several Cracked Egg Studios properties, such as a Mortal Combat sequel called Mortal Kombat II.
Noey Productions filmed a number of projects intended as independent shorts such as 00Joe and 00Matt and Joeass but which ended up being used as B-roll for Ni-Ki-Oh! episodes beginning in 2003.
From its founding until late 2004, Noey Productions documented numerous events held by members of the historical Free United Club of Kids, such as tournaments. It also attempted to film a biography of one Johnny Pradlik, which it called The Life of Joey Lee.
During summer 2004, the company produced the music parody album The Arrival, featuring vocals of the company's executives.
By December 2004, Joseph Justus began publicly expressing desires to stop acting and to exit the film business, and content by Noey Productions began to slow. Even so, in June 2005, the company attempted to make a comeback by launching its own web site, in response to the May 29 launch of the Cracked Egg Studios site, and by producing the feature film Out of the Darkness. That same month, it agreed to collaborate with Cracked Egg Studios on another feature film called Bean of the Dead.
Joseph Justus moved to Connecticut in August 2005, causing collaboration to plummet. Video footage that had been in the possession of Justus were not copied to other executives at the time.
Cracked Egg Studios announced that it had acquired Noey Productions on January 31, 2006, effectively merging it into Cracked Egg Studios. However, content that was still in the possession of Justus at the time was overlooked and was apparently lost in the merger.
