Episode 2 was the first episode to be screened at the Trylon Cinema; A quaint 90 seat theater in south Minneapolis that specializes in screening curated film series’. The screening was free, zines were free to attendees. The promotional material for episode 2 was primarily typographic. Following the initial character exploration to promote episode 1, a unique mascot was created for each Hellavision Television Animation Show episode. Each one carries a unique ethos. This one is about “cute doom.”
