"True Love's Course" Has Been Released!

    BRAWL 2024 has come to an end, so now our entry, True Love's Course, has arrived! Let's dive in and find out more about our first-ever romance film, as well as about the ever-shifting schedule for Twenty Years Young!

True Love's Course Has Been Released!

    Developed in just under a week for BRAWL 2024 (though the concept dates back to the pre-formation era in 2003 under the title Love & Kisses), the film True Love's Course has been released! The film follows Brent Milger, a college-aged guy who is trying to attract the attention of a young woman. However, in order to get to really know her, he's going to have to see the world through her eyes. The film has been embedded here for your viewing pleasure!

    Also, if you've been lingering around the press room last week, you may have seen our live updates regarding this film's production. It was a messy one, to be honest, but we pulled through to make the best film that we could in the parameters provided. When the results are announced next month, we will post them here on this press room. Speaking of those live updates, though...

The Future for Live Updates: There is None!

    Personally, managing the live updates took away from the development process, which is why last week's live update was so sporadically updated. Because of this, we've decided to permanently retire live updates for all upcoming projects. Naturally, the existing live updates aren't going anywhere, but we won't be diverting our resources to any more in the future.

The Half-Way Point for Twenty Years Young: Where We're At

    This film also marks an important milestone for the Twenty Years Young celebration: we're half-way through the celebration! Schedules have slipped lately, but so far, we've kept to our promise of at least one legitimately new release each month, with re-released content filling out the time in between. Now granted, February is the exception to this rule, but that month was never planned to have any new releases from the start. With that said, some of the releases that have been delayed have started to back-load the celebration's calendar. We have worked out a solution, however.

The Remainder of the Celebration: The Updated Schedule

    Since schedules have shuffled and projects have been delayed, we have worked out a new schedule for the rest of the celebration's new releases (so not including the re-releases). Please bear in mind that this schedule is still tentative and is subject to change without notice.

  • Galactic Convoy - July 26, 2024
  • Alms Pouch: Finished At Last! - August 16, 2024
  • Sackie's Mishap (And Other Tales) - September 6, 2024
  • Ten Years of Going Crazy! - The Celebration Soundtrack - September 6, 2024
  • Greed and Grit - September 14, 2024
  • The Fourth Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards - September 20, 2024
  • Mustache Maniacs Film Co.: The Visual Dictionary - 3rd Edition - September 23, 2024
  • Johnny Thunder and the Rise to Fame - September 27, 2024
  • Cooking With Flex: Recipes from Around Mustache Maniacs Film Co.'s Cinematic Universe - October 6, 2024
  • A Future in the Past - October 25, 2024
  • Tales Across the World: A Short Story Collection - November 8, 2024
  • The Archivist - December 20, 2024
  • Van Helbrick and the Monster Fighters - 2025 or Later

We are aware that September, formerly the quietest month scheduled, has A LOT going on now. Again, this schedule is tentative, so this will most likely change. If any more changes occur to this schedule, we will inform you here. Check back tomorrow for our next month theme and a glance at what's in store for July!

The Year in Review: 2023

Image
  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; December 31, 2023)      As another year comes to a close, we're taking a look back over what happened this year. We were pretty quiet in the build-up to Twenty Years Young , but we did still have a substantial amount of content this past year. January     To kick off the new year,  Hunted: A (Not) Bigfoot Story  was released on January 8. This tale of a hillbilly with overgrown hair and the campers who think that he's bigfoot was created for THAC 2023. While the film did not win any prizes, it did become just one of many entries in the record-breaking competition that will have you stomping with laughter. We also began an audit of the studio archives as part of a final push to finish content for Twenty Years Young , as well as geared up to plow through the projects planned for this year. February     One of those projects,  Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear , officially debuted on February 1! This special project r

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; November 5, 2023)     If you remember our special project Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear  that debuted on February 1 of this year, you might be wondering what's going on there. Well, today, we have the answer! Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear  is Having a Multi-Part Story Reveal for Two Weeks!      Over the last several months, the project has seen sporadic updates to the back-story of the land, as well as the layout and the characters, the latter of which were just revealed to celebrate Halloween. Now, starting today, the project blog is going to have daily updates for the next two weeks that will walk you through the main story of the land by way of the interactive game HowlSpace: The Howling Hollow Messaging App , which includes in-depth looks at each location as they become relevant in the said game. This includes any important background info, who operates each location, how they're related to each other

"Animation Reel 2" Debuts with new Logo

Image
By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; January 8, 2013)      Earlier today, a demo reel from MEA 135 class was released, showcasing some animation from that class (you can watch it  here ). However, a more important element of this release is the logo at the beginning. If you compare it to previous releases, you will notice that this logo has been highly upgraded with banners, text, and more. "This logo update is very important," said LEGO Studios CEO Mark Matthew. "Before, the technology used in our films was a little...dated, to say the least, so the old logo worked. However, we now have the entire Adobe CS6 Creative Suite. We can literally add big-budget special effects, highly stylized fonts, dramatic credits, and more to our films, giving our films a professional touch. However, the unintended side effect is that our films will now look so good, the old logo will look bad in comparison. That is what makes this update important."  T
