This week’s video has touched down, and is currently taxing to the terminal. You can find it at boarding gate ‘E’.

This week’s video was a bit of an experiment. WE had this script that we really, really liked, but for whatever reason, the Capitol Region’s Airport Authority didn’t take particularly enthusiastically to a bunch of 20-something amateur film-makers descending (ha!) on their airport, to shoot a bunch of video of their more sensitive operations to publish on the internet. Your guess is as good as mine as to why this was, but alas, we didn’t have a control tower to shoot in.

Since we couldn’t shoot on location, and we knew we wouldn’t be able to fake up a set sufficiently well, we decided to try our hands at the video you see before you. Entirely hand drawn! Kathleen took care of the character art, Alex did the backgrounds, and Graham made it all go. As a result, we didn’t have to set this script to rest as something unfilmable, and you guys ended up with something visually fresh, and different!

Unskippable this week was an advance cutscene from Epic Mickey (a game I’m quite looking forward to.) You can find that update here.
