    It's been over a decade since we ran our first-ever film school/game show/contest competition, The Film School Challenge. A lot has happened since then, including us bringing on that contest's winner as a member of our affiliate team, so let's take a look at this month themed to The Film School Challenge!

Studio Shenanigans: What to Expect for September

    With The Film School Challenge embracing so many genres, we're going to mix things up this month with a little bit of everything. We're going to pay tribute to some classic films, glistening awards, and even those quirky school projects! Here's everything that's releasing this month.

  • On September 4, the first version of Mustache Maniacs Film Co.: The Visual Dictionary will return.
  • Two days later on September 6, TWO new releases will arrive! The first is the all-new animatic film Sackie's Mishap (And Other Tales) and the second is the music album Ten Years of Going Crazy! - The Celebration Soundtrack.
  • After a span of time, on September 22, the storyboard comparison for Sam N' Bob Brawl will be released.
  • On the following day, September 23, Mustache Maniacs Film Co: The Visual Dictionary - 3rd Edition will finally be released.
  • The day after that, September 24, will see the release of an art gallery for Freddy and Joey in Corn Farm.
  • Finally, on September 27, The Fourth Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards will debut.
  • Throughout the month, additional merchandise will be added to the Mustache Maniacs Merchandise Market, including some highly desirable items to get ready for Christmas!
  • And, at last, the cover art for Tales Across The World: A Short Story Collection will be showcased later on this month before the release of Mustache Maniacs Film Co: The Visual Dictionary - 3rd Edition.

Again, some of these releases may change, so keep an eye out here for any additional news.

The Archivist Has Officially Begun Development for December 20 Debut!

    Just like we recently announced, The Archivist is going to be our first live action film since 2010 and is going to be written and directed by Eli Hutchinson. Well, starting this week, development has officially begun, with the short outline and found footage already delivered to Eli. The film will be completed this fall, with an anticipated release on December 20, the very last day of the Twenty Years Young celebration.

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
