The scene opens in Waterfall City as Arthur talks to his son Will about test-piloting his newfangled Dragoncopter on its maiden flight.
Producer Tom Lopez and composer Tim Clark pulled out all the stops to immerse us in the acoustic environment, with the roar of the falls, the chugging steam engine, and the crowds on the ground.
We then follow Will into Arthur's laboratory, where they wonder about the mysterious stone that Arthur found on his journey below ground.
This acoustic adventure was produced by Tom Lopez, mastermind of the ZBS Foundation, with an original music track by composer Tim Clark.
Episode 2 arrives in a week. Each short episode will only be live online for one week, and then it will disappear.

Hey James,
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering, have you ever written about or told the story of how you went about getting Dinotopia into the world? How you found a publisher? Things like that. It would be interesting to hear the story of it.
All the best :)
