In 2010, TVTV will grow beyond our “webisode” format and produce a 60 minute Halloween Special! But making an hour of broadcast-quality television takes quite a bit more than a simple “webisode”.
We’re currently filming Web Season 3. After that we’re going to move ahead with shooting our perennial Halloween Special for grown ups! Think “Avenue Q meets The Great Pumpkin”! If all goes as planned, we’ll be able to broadcast the special via Twin Cities television this year and then push for a national release in 2011!
Your donation will help us tell the tale of Dwayne Frankenstein, Furry the party Yeti, and Irving Batfink as they dig deep into Castle LeShoc to discover the true meaning of Halloween and meet the somewhat morally ambiguous Pumpkin Prince! Each sponsorship level is rife with incentives, which you can read more about on kickstarter.com! We have chosen to raise $6,000, but the truth is the type of thing we do costs a LOT more. So aim high, shoot for that deadline which ends June 6th and let’s go past it if we can!
Season three of Transylvania Television kicks off with “Oscar School!” Just in time for your Academy Awards weekend, Furry and Le Shoc illustrate how to win at any Oscar pool using Le Shoc’s patented new system.
Thanks to the efforts of the cast, crew, and people like you, the web series Transylvania Television has been steadily gaining steam. Check out some of the things that people have been saying about the retro monster comedy series:

The TVTV Web series continues to gather steam as they launch their third season and the producers and fleece animators of TVTV continue to expand their audience base. Using the Web and guerilla marketing tactics, TVTV has been reaching out to audiences via Facebook, iTunes, and Twitter while creating an army of “zombie minions” for their cult hit.
The gang starts prelighting for the first episode of Season Three. Now that the Le Shoc set is leveled, the boys start moving cameras and lighting in to the space and begin framing up for the weekend shoot. Until something unforeseen happens to Gordon!
