Seen all over the
world, Videogame Theater is the history of
videogames, as told by puppets.
The five-minute pilot
attracted enough attention on the internets that
MTV-Italy’s new QOOB network licensed a season of 13
new episodes, which aired across Europe in 2007.
Episodes have also been showcased on The Escapist
website, GenCon Film Festival ’07, the Knitting
Factory in Hollywood, and First Sundays Film
Festival in New York City.
