Adapting your favorite TESD moments: with puppets!
We asked for your favorite TESD moments, and you responded! We have been working on designing and building new puppets for the upcoming production, and Kickstarter funding will go to set construction, as well as fabrication of all of the colorful characters that inhabit the TESD universe.
In addition to the updated, new and improved version of "What's in the Box?", included on this DVD you will find the following adaptations:
Aliens:
When a trip to Roswell, New Mexico runs afoul, Bry, Walt, and Q dream up an alien-centric theme park.
Walt's Parachute:
Before working at the Stash, Walt felt called to work in a great number of places- like a prison!
One, True, Three:
Walt introduces a new game, and everything goes swiftly to Hell!
Shane, Heir to the Throne:
Bryan, Walt, and Q do a complete dramatic reading of Pam's elf-centric book about human trafficking and heroin addiction!
Walt Goes Postal:
A missing package sparks an intense fury in everybody's favorite comic store manager.
Makin' Hay:
The life of a flea market salesman is a hard one- as Bry, Walt, and Q discover as they uncover tales of hording and an escape from a concentration camp!
And many more!
Every DVD is region-free, so you can enjoy TESD anywhere in the world!
As an extra incentive, there will be plenty of behind-the-scenes material as well as segments cut from the main film overall available on the DVD that will not be posted online or made available through the download link. Good times to be had all around.
And, if DVDs and their obligatory bonus features aren't your thing, included in every DVD you will find a download code by which you can enjoy the TESD Puppet Theatre right on your computer's hard drive.

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
As we move into production, we have puppets to build, sets to build, puppeteers to hire, and locations to secure. We are essentially undertaking the full workload of executing a feature length film, but with the added caveat of having to construct all of our locations and cast.
It's looking to be a daunting challenge, but one that we are more than ready to rise to. We are looking forward to providing you with the best possible product that we can, and one that can be enjoyed for several years to come!
