which is a feature length web series that will be divided into 16 minute episodes that will each run around 10 minutes. It is a project that is influenced by other films such Miami Vice, Beverly Hills Cop, and Lethal Weapon, and features a relevant topic the video game world deals with quite often: The linking of video games with real world violence.

VID Agents is set in an alternate reality where the United States government has federally outlawed video games, due to the belief that they drive people into acts of violence. As with many illegal things that exist, video games have become prominent, and very profitable within the black market. This is where Gabe Wolfe and Ethan Fox come into play. These two police officers located in the Greater Los Angeles Area receive promotions to become the agents of the brand new Video Game Investigations Division. Once they take upon their new responsibilities as VID Agents, they soon learn of the true size of the game trafficking ring, and fall into the hunt for the biggest distributor of games in LA.

Only Gabe and Ethan can prevent the game trade ring from bringing Los Angeles to its knees.

The creator of VID Agents is Philip Bache, a writer, director, and producer whom has also done work on short films, music videos, video games, web shows, and independent features. He is currently a voice director for AAA game titles that feature Hollywood casts, grand production schedules, and titles that have won many awards.
