The Inspiration

We're returning to the projects we grew up with, specifically the fantastic fantasy films from the 1980s like Willow, The Dark Crystal, Black Cauldron, Dragonslayer, Legend, and more.We want to create something that is adventurous, magical, heartwarming, optimistic, and fun to watch!Also, we need more awesome sword fights!

The Plan

Phase 1 - Episode One

Episode one is in post-production! Coming soon

Phase 2 - The Rest of the Season

Upon completion of the first episode, we'll launch a new crowdfunding campaign to raise additional funds for another 7 episodes of the season! Then we'll go into production and release them toward the end of 2025.
