More DOG PARK & 1 Year of LEFT HOOK

5/16/2021

Lots of fun news that we can cover today! It can all be broken down into two categories.

THE DOG PARK:
Things have been going well for THE DOG PARK. We released the first in a series of podcasts called...wait for it....THE DOG PARK PODCAST! Very creative name. Basically David Young and I chat about each story and go into detail about any behind the scenes info that we can. This first one however, was mainly focused on the origins of the series itself. This is a video show and we will be streaming new episodes on Twitch every second Tuesday of the month. Afterwards, they'll be available on our website at THIS PAGE or on our Facebook page.
We've also made a limited number of paperback copies for the free first chapter available at a couple local Wichita comic shops. Those being Hero Haven and Prairie Dog Comics. Many thanks for them for allowing us to give them out there.
Coming this Tuesday, there will be another cartoon out. I'm very excited for this one especially. Can't wait to share it with you.
For anyone who is interested and hasn't jumped on it yet, you can check out the Indiegogo page to pre-order your paperback or digital copy of Volume 1.

LEFT HOOK:
It has officially been a whole year since LEFT HOOK made its debut online. It has had one hell of a run in spite of everything 2020 threw at it. We've decided to pretty much end the festival run to make way for WISH YOU WERE HERE, but it is still available through Vimeo OnDemand, VHX and TromaNow. Maybe we'll offer up some more screenings in the future or expand the platforms, but this is where it will sit for now. We're pretty comfortable. You can get links to all of those at the LEFT HOOK page.
Additionally, as a fun little release for this first anniversary, I put together a full "deluxe edition" soundtrack on Bandcamp. This includes every piece of score in the film, plus a few bonus demos and such. Feel free to check that out HERE. We haven't spoken much about our Bandcamp on here, but we have released score albums for all of our features (including WISH YOU WERE HERE) and an EP for our work on NIGHTMARE DRIVE. Feel free to check all of that out.

I'm sure we'll be checking in again pretty soon. Lots of great stuff still on the way!

Catch ya next time!

All About THE DOG PARK!

5/1/2021

Today is a pretty big day for THE DOG PARK!
Well, this whole month is, actually. We'll get in to all of it here.

First and most importantly, we are starting pre-orders for Volume 1 through Indiegogo. We go more in-depth on the campaign page, but I can briefly explain here as well. The campaign is to support the distribution of the book. It's a direct way to secure yourself a copy (whether that be digital or paperback) and helps us with additional printing, as well as setting us up for conventions. Definitely consider picking yourself up a copy! We'd greatly appreciate it!
INDIEGOGO CAMPAING CAN BE FOUND HERE!
Additionally, as you can see right above, we've also made a companion cartoon. This is one of two animated promos we created to support the new book. It was a lot of fun to put together. This one features the usual in-house voice cast along side Tori Kamal and Ciara Duarte. The other cartoon will be coming in the middle of the month. Stay tuned for that!

If you want to sample some of THE DOG PARK, then you're in luck. IT'S FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!!! What, do you think I picked today to start on accident!? That's right, folks! We're making the first story of the book, "Some Like It Burnt", free to read on four platforms. Including: VHX, Webtoon, Tapas and GlobalComix! (For VHX, you'll have to use the code "FREETDP" at checkout. They wouldn't let us make it free.) We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

I think that covers everything for now. Stay tuned this month for more great THE DOG PARK related content.

EDIT: I've seen that the actual Free Comic Book Day "event" has been postponed until August. We'll still be doing ours in May, like it's always been. Plus, ours is all digital after all.
