Lothar Preview 3 has been posted! We are on schedule for our March 15th debut of "Lothar, King of Metal Episode 1". We have been working on Episode 1 for over nine months! In that time we developed the script, designed and built all the sets (including some for episode 2 and 3), recorded a soundtrack, taken over 5000 pictures (only a few hundred more to go), and will soon do a final edit! So be sure to check here (www.lotharkingofmetal.com), March 15th for the release of "Lothar, King of Metal Episode 1". Metal Prevails!

Due to the complexity of creating a stop motion animation series in your spare time "Lothar, King of Metal Episode 1" will not debut 2/2/07 (Groundhog Day), We have moved the release date to 3/15/07 (The Ides of March). While we realy wanted to release episode 1 by 2/2/07, we are commited to presenting as high quality a production as possible given our tiny budget, and limited spare time. The delay is a result of this dedication to quality. We will be releasing a third preview on 2/22/07 (Lothar Preview 3).
