Pluto Makes The Space’s Open Call Shortlist | @MezBreezeDesign [#geekgirl]

Pluto

“We’re blisteringly pleased to inform you all that Pluto, our latest game based transmedia project with Dreaming Methods, has been shortlisted for The Space’s Open Call Competition. Out of a field of approximately 600 submissions, our project has made the grade. The next step is working with our designated Associate Producer, Maria Bota, to further develop our proposal. Exciting times!

And this awesomey news comes off the back of non-stop weeks of productive exhibiting/working, as well as shiny confirmation of brand-spanking new 2015 projects…[including]…the launch of our “teaser site” for Pluto, with a video preview and sign-up available for when the project is released [make sure to press the “Teleport” button after deets are entered]. We’ve been gobsmackingly astounded by how many of you want to experience Pluto [so many of you have given us generous feedback].”
