We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 17, 2011.

"Steampunk HBI: Video Blog" - Chapter Two: Pre-Production

Update #2 · Jul 22, 2011 · comment

Another week of preparing for our “mighty launch”. This time, Peter and Rich go to Palo Alto to scour IKea for raw materials … A local pub plays host to a couple of meticulous history nuts … and The Aeronauts alight themselves upon The Neverwas Haul in Emeryville, CA to scout out a location for an upcoming film shoot! We’re also joined by Erin McGauley-Hebard, Louise DuCray, and Jay Davis – a former ILM sculptor and puppeteer, whose credits include Young Sherlock Holmes, Gremlins, and Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan!

To learn more about the shenanigans of the day, take a look at the latest installment of the Behind-The-Scenes Video Blog!
