STARPOST

Official Synopsis:

When a ragtag team of pilots, led by the no-nonsense Scout, gets caught in a deadly dogfight over a hostile planet, it’s up to them to outsmart enemy forces, dodge explosive fire, and escape with vital intel that could change the course of the war.

With her no nonsense boss Hutch and relentlessly optimistic partner Dodge, Scout must lead the charge. The mission is simple: get in, grab the intel, and get out, but things go south fast. One by one, their team is shot down, and Scout’s skills are pushed to the breaking point. It's a high-octane race to survive, finish the mission, and get back home - alive.

The Cast of STARPOST

It was amazing to work with some of our favorite cast members and collaborators on STARPOST!

We’re thrilled to be working with Benedict Mazurek again! Along with STARPOST, Benedict also starred in The West and the Ruthless, Danger! Danger! and our TV Pilot Love’s Gate. Most recently he also voiced the character Rival in The BackSpace Trilogy. Also returning is Alexander Harris! We worked with Alex on our feature films The West and the Ruthless and Danger! Danger! Alex also starred in the TV Pilot for Love’s Gate (and wrote the script!) AND we’re over the moon to be working with Rebecca Gomberg again! Rebecca starred in our feature film The West and Ruthless as Scarlet Winchester.

Two voice actors we’re thrilled to be working with again are George Ashby and Daniel L McCullen, both of whom we worked with on Tales from Black Manor. And for the first time we are thrilled to be working with Dan Anders as the robot Duo.

Announcing our next project, STARPOST!

We’re thrilled to announce our next project in production, STARPOST!

STARPOST has it all! Spaceships! Robots! And an amazing cast that we were delighted to work with!

STARPOST has a very special place in our hearts as it’s the continued culmination of everything we’ve been working towards for years.

When we first started work on our short films, we always wanted to create entire worlds combining live action, 3D, and motion graphics.

After our feature films, The West and the Ruthless and Danger! Danger! we began work on BackSpace and Tales from Black Manor. The first was designed to push 3D and Unreal Engine to its limits, and the later was designed to launch us further into world building.

After completing all of these projects, we’re really excited to head into this next chapter of mixing everything we’ve been learning over the years with STARPOST.

New Article on Raindance: From Footage to Fable

Here’s an excerpt from a brand new article about the making of Tales from Black Manor over on Raindance:

FROM FOOTAGE TO FABLE

We just completed our Third and Final Series of Tales from Black Manor. An entire world that now comprises 14 Episodes about a family whose history intertwines with the Deaths. And we made the entire thing from stock footage.

There’s a unique thrill that comes with building an entire world from scratch. It's an invitation to craft not just characters and plots but an entire universe with its own rules, history, and pulse.

This particular tale spans centuries—from the dark days of the 1300s to an unknown future—telling the haunting legacy of a single family entangled with Death itself. Tales from Black Manor is about lineage, loss, and fighting fate.

This project began as an experiment. During the pandemic, when traditional production was halted and film sets went dark. Creativity itself felt like it was standing still. We had just completed our second feature film and felt the wind in our sails and then suddenly we couldn’t make our next film. So we began to wonder what we could create without production?

New Article on Horror Fuel about the making of Black Manor!

Here’s an excerpt from a brand new article about the making of Tales from Black Manor over on Horror Fuel:

People love the unpredictable nature of anthologies. In an era where binge-watching means hours spent on one story arc, an anthology series feels refreshing. Think about Black Mirror, where each episode feels like a one-off nightmare of the near future. And in Love, Death & Robots, the short format helps each piece feel like a glimpse into a strange, unfamiliar world, where not everything has to be fully explained. Tales from Black Manor brings that same focus, but it keeps a shared history, a family story that ties everything together.

Each episode is its own mini-thriller, but it also adds a piece to a bigger puzzle—a family that chooses their immortality over the life of another. This lets the series tell stories in different eras, with different characters, giving each one its own unique look and feel.

An anthology gives a lot of freedom, too. It doesn’t have to stick to one storyline, so it keeps things fresh. You never quite know what the next story might bring. For Tales from Black Manor, that’s half the fun.

Behind the Scenes of Black Manor Article on GeekTyrant

Here’s an excerpt from a brand new article about the behind the scenes of Tales from Black Manor over on GeekTyrant:

Genre anthologies are on the rise, and there’s a good reason why. From Love, Death & Robots to Black Mirror and V/H/S, these short-story collections have found a way to hook viewers who want just enough to get spooked, intrigued, or blown away, without committing to a long narrative.
Tales from Black Manor - a series about a family’s dark legacy with Death itself, stretching from the 1300s to the present - taps into this trend with short, punchy stories that get to the heart of the story fast.
The beauty of Tales from Black Manor lies in its setup: each story is a glimpse into another Black family member dealing with Death in its own way, yet each tale connects to a larger, ominous history. One story might show an ancestor's willingness to kill in the name of Death in medieval times, while another jumps ahead to a more modern character grappling with that same dark presence. It’s the kind of approach that lets the story unfold in fragments, keeping each episode fresh while building a deeper, shared story across time.

Tales from Black Manor, ALT Posters

During the creation of Tales from Black Manor, we designed several ALT posters for different episodes. These were either designed to be the original poster and we decided to go a different route, or the edit for the episode itself changed and a new design was more fitting.

The End of All Things, Watch it Now!

Episode 14: “The End of All Things”

When Annabelle Black goes venturing off into the forgotten East Corridor of Black Manor, she finds something new. It’s a simple glass orb - but when she touches it - she can see everything. She can see the beginning, middle, and end of time, and lurking there is the Final Death.

An Epilogue

The End of All Things was designed to feel like an epilogue to the series, one last moment that comes even after the final episode and tells the death of Black Manor and maybe even the entire world.

The Keepers, Watch it Now!

Episode 13: “The Keepers”

In the tower of Black Manor, the Keeper guards the manors darkest secrets. Amidst catacombs, graves, and the Book of Death, he safeguards the legacy, offering others eternal life at the cost of a deadly bargain.

The Final Episode

As we mentioned earlier, we’re big Mike Flannigan fans. The House of Usher was absolutely incredible, but we also really loved Midnight Mass. This was a big inspiration when we began to put together The Keepers. It impacted both the melancholy tone and the beauty of the Catholic Church images.
