Ep. 7 Update + An Incredible Fan Film
Added 2021-05-28 19:27:12 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
We hope everyone is staying healthy out there and maybe starting to experience the old world a little bit more each day. We're both fully vaxxed, but even then it's been a slow transition to feeling okay taking our masks off and being around other people without anxiety sliding in for a surprise guest appearance.
Anyway, it says Ep. 7 updates in the title so let's get on with it. We're making serious progress on the episode, so much that we we're planning on dropping a trailer for it sometime next week. We're always careful about ruining any jokes or surprises, so the trailer will be more of a way to spread the word and get people hyped, but you will hopefully be entertained none the less.
Finally, we are super excited to share this fan film with you. Jason Sherry runs a spring acting workshop for high school students, and when it came time to pick a project, he decided to recreate Existential Troopers. The lengths he and the students went to recreate the scene are incredible. They enlisted the help of some engineering students to 3D print the bike scout armor. Jason formed a close and personal relationship with hot glue and Velcro. They brought in a tech person to build full scale speeder bikes. Everything is so above and beyond. What they produced adds so much to the scene. By breaking free of the 45 seconds of looped footage, they were able to breathe new life into the characters in a way we didn't even consider. So please give the video a look! There's some great BTS material after the credits as well. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Love,
Craven + Zak

C and Z, Wow! What an honor and credit to your work. Who would have thought that someone would do a parody on a parody? This just goes to show that you two- and all who work so hard on your projects alongside you, are top fricken -notch-and you deserve this honor. I have a feeling there are more coming. This acting group nailed it though! Like everyone else, I'm disturbingly anticipating Ep. 7, I can imagine the pressure, but I'm not in the least worried that it won't turn out to be another Auralnauts classic. I Love your work, because you love what you do, and you've singlehandedly carved a unique niche in entertainment, and created this immensely intellectual alternate universe that I never want to leave. Thank you. BTW, my mother has recovered from COVID. ( The last time I mentioned this, it was only 3 family members who had passed.) She is the only family member ( out of four now, who have passed) who gave the grim reaper the finger! And at 74, she was the oldest to get sick. I'm so happy and thankful to still have my mother. Thank you guys... Niko Deherrera (patron)(urbaninstrumentalist) Colorado Springs, CO
