So, The Thrill Electric is finally out there for all to see and — after a lovely little wrap party in Camden on Friday night with Windflower Studio, Hat Trick Productions, Channel 4 Education and LittleLoud — we were up bright and early on Saturday to head to the London MCM London for the 11am TTE panel/demo/launch.
Rich over at Bleeding Cool has written up a pretty extensive report of all that was shown and told which is well worth a read if you’re interested in the project.
We handed out hundreds of flyers, free badges, and signed limited edition prints of the Windflower covers, and we were only there until 3pm (and spent more than an hour of that losing Artists Vs. Writers)!
Literally on our way out of the door we were interviewed by Mr. Alex Fitch for his Resonance FM show Panel Borders. Alex also managed to talk to Emma Vieceli about here involvement in TTE and you can listen to (or download) a podcast of the show at http://podcasts.resonancefm.com/archives/7844 (I apologies in advance if we don’t make much sense, we were knackered and running for a train, but I’m sure Emma makes up for it).
It was a really hectic, mad day but people’s reactions to the panel and to seeing TTE up and running made it 100% worth it. We’ve been so lucky to have so many wonderful people involved in the project and we are really, honestly, genuinely excited for more and more people to see what we’ve all achieved together. Please do check out www.thethrillelectric.com and, if you like what you see, spread the word via FaceBook, Twitter, message boards… wherever. If you want to interview us or any of the other creators involved then just drop us an email, if you want to ask us anything just leave a comment or twitter us. We’re dying to talk about the project and get the word out there. TTE is the first comic of its kind — nothing like this has ever been done before — that’s pretty exciting, right?
