Down Chamber – Drone Day 2025

https://youtu.be/82A7zhn3_sk

The 2025 edition of our annual collaboration with dungeon synth / experimental / dark classical music project Down Chamber has been filmed and is set for premiere! The video has been uploaded to YouTube but will premiere on Saturday, May 24, 2025 at 12:01 AM in United States, Central time. Drone Day is an international event featuring artists all over the world embracing the drone music genre and its subgenres.

Our puppetry works will be taking a different direction with our new “Ruination Puppetry” series; contrasting the sillier puppet endeavors recently released. Based on the concepts of poetic words and direct storytelling, the Ruination series is about puppets that will be forever destroyed for the sake of profound story conveyance. Two have premiered on Tik Tok so far, with several more planned.

We give you a brief glimpse into our 2025 season! The image outlines an overview of the scheduled shows we have on tap throughout the year. This does not include our sporadic shorts, Tik Toks, memes, another quirky mini-projects that pop up throughout the year. So keep an eye out!

We have entered another puppet film challenge! This time, the fest was put on by Puppet Place and the British Puppet Guild. The theme was the number 25 (in honor of the New Year) and to keep it under 60 seconds for an Instagram release. Therefore, we give you: “The Answer is… 25”, featuring our puppets Mr. Bones, Nosferatu, Thomas, and a bonus stuffed elephant.

Our latest music video for dungeon synth/drone/dark classical music artist Down Chamber has arrived on January 1 to kick off the new year! The video was directed by Daniel Rodriguez, Michael Verderber, and Julio Martinez. Additional concepts and storyboarding by Raymond Martinez and Katherine Orozco-Verderber.

As an extra bit of holiday cheer, ZU member Daniel Rodriguez signed one of Katherine’s songs from her Christmas album! You can watch it on our YouTube or our TikTok! Ironically, the song is forcefully muted on some services.

For this series, we will be creating very short puppet pieces for our Tik Tok. This gives us the opportunity to create puppet projects with quick commitments and opportunity to delve into styles (rod, paper, shadow, etc).

The first of these projects features an OLD character from Zero Untitled’s canon, Baby Dormouse. The character originated from the 2009 children’s show “Safety Critters”. Instead of a live actor, Baby Dormouse is now a paper puppet talking head…literally. The first two ultra shorts were posted on Tik Tok (see links below). Expect to see more Baby Dormouse and other unique experiments in puppetry.

Pre-production has already begun with principal filming occurring in mid and late December 2024. UPDATE! New SPOILER photos just added below!

Bringing back our horror shorts from last year, the 2024 series of “Two Sentence Horror Stories” is now officially out! Three videos will be posted on our Tik Tok with links posted here. The project is under the direction of Daniel Rodriguez.
