“He Whose Name Must Not Be Spoken.”


So lots of time lost in reconverting found footage media to the correct file format, but while this has been happening Ive had the time to look at footage carefully for sound edits for a few animation segments. Its terribly interesting that in 2004 MKA were able to say that their company had come into being by the works of their "dad...well parents...and Robert Thorne."
