Laser Lace Letters Are Go!!!!
A new story emerges from within the murky world of Clockwork Watch, leading to a kick arse crowdfunding concept. This will hopefully be the first of many independent projects to launch from inside our storyworld. This proposition is based on a co-created story arc and has been masterminded by Haley Moore aka @toenolla.
We take NO commission, ownership of IP or have creative control of this project, and are extremely proud that Haley’s taken the opportunity to launch with us.
Here’s Haley:
“After six months of constant prototyping, intense planning and caffeine-fueled story development, my new project, Laser Lace Letters, has finally gone up on Kickstarter. It’s a unique project with elements of handcrafting, fragmented storytelling, and design. Also, it brings together two of my favorite things: steampunk, and lasers.
Laser Lace Letters is a line of laser-cut felt cameo pins that I designed and prototyped at Dallas Makerspace. I’ll be making for everyone who pledges for them during the Kickstarter. They’re designed to be worn like a button or a badge: on a lapel, a backpack, a purse, or even on a hat.”

Advertisements Appearing In Clockwork Watch
This is one of the first advertisements that we’ve introduced into the Clockwork Watch universe. The aim is to integrate their core message into our story, in a way that doesn’t distract from the overall experience.
You could call this “branded content”, but we see it as something more creative. We love the brands we’ve worked with, they trust us and support our efforts to do something totally different.
Advertising seems to be stuck in a rutt. Brand managers or guardians are frightened of connecting with the very people that buy their products. Our aim is to find partners who will give us the creative freedom to explore ways in which we can introduce aspects of their brand to our participants.
Explore the adverts, each one is the start of a new story…
