“Captain Fantasy” Launches International Awareness Campaign at the World Fantasy Convention.
(Calgary, Alberta)
“It didn’t start out that way”, says Brian Hades. “It was in the Hallowe’en edition of the Calgary Herald newspaper and the moniker just stuck”.
“Captain Fantasy” was the name splashed across the front page of the Entertainment section, under an enormous colour photograph of a grey haired, “Godfather-like” character seated in a 1950s style diner surrounded by two gorgeous space aliens.
The article, which spread over two pages, was the beginning of a media blitz bringing attention to one of Calgary's best kept secrets.
Data CD of LISTen BlogWorld Episodes Now Available
Erie Looking Productions is proud to announce that a compact disc is available for purchase through on-disk.com of LISTen's coverage of BlogWorldExpo 2008. The disc contains remastered recordings of the three episodes at very high quality in Ogg Vorbis format. The disc is intended for library collections and for archiving. Archival concerns drove the decision to use the Ogg Vorbis format as it is an open standard.
The on-disk.com page offering the disc is: http://on-disk.com/product_info.php/products_id/594. Rather than handle fulfilment from Las Vegas, it was felt best to use a separate vendor for making this available. This is intended to reduce overhead on the content creator's end.
