Sirocco Research Lab Screens 'Red Moon' in Chicago Tonight

Remember when we did that beautiful profile on Sirocco Research Labs in our summer issue this year? Well, the creators of a seriously awesome short film titled Red Moon are in Chicago this week to screen their film at Co-Prosperity Sphere in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood.

Red Moon is a werewolf story set on a Soviet submersible. Filmed and produced in Los Angeles, we met up with Sirocco while we were out working on the West Coast. They made us dinner, showed us around their studio and talked with us in-depth about starting their own production company and making movies.

Not to be missed, the screening begins at 9 p.m. and will include a showing of Red Moon and Cleo in the Universe. Both films are excellently done, with beautiful set design and costume work. Jettison will be there and you should be too.

Co-Prosperity Sphere is located at 3219 S. Morgan Street. After the screening, the Sirocco crew will be dancing the night away with music provide by Bryan John Appleby and Clique Talk.

Jettison was in Los Angeles last week soaking up some sun and getting some work in. The highlight of our trip was taking some time to sit down with the crew at Sirocco Research Labs. Sirocco is a really cool production company based in LA doing some fun stuff with film. You'll have to check out our piece about Sirocco Research Labs in the upcoming summer issue for the details.

Jettison found some other cool stuff along the way as well. In the Echo Park neighborhood we discovered The Echo Park Independent Co-Op. EPIC is a boutique stocked with local designer wares that knocked out socks off. You can check out their stuff here, as well as shop online: http://shopepicla.com/.

Also, right up Jettison's alley was this awesome shop (See photos). Time Travel Mart was stocked with so much exciting robot stuff, we freaked (they sell time travel supplies as well, and Black Holes are only a $2.99). On top of that, everything that the store sells goes back into their non-profit after school assistance with children. Time Travel Mart works with kids to help them with their homework and allows them to great creative with fun art projects like book binding classes.
