Steampunk Holmes

In an alternative Steampunk universe (c.1885), the plans for Captain Nemo’s mysterious Nautilus submarine have been stolen from the British Secret Service. There is only one man who can solve the case, Sherlock Holmes. With his bionic side-kick Doctor Watson, and his brilliant and lethal sister, Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock unravels a mystery that will shake the foundation of the British Empire.

Steampunk Picture Show (www.steampunkpictureshow.com) is a website that will host a wide variety of Steampunk films. 

Our first Steampunk film was made as part of the “48 Go Green Challenge 2011, NYC” and was written, shot, and edited in just two days.  It was awarded “Best Directing” by their panel of judges.  Screenings are happening throughout the New York area.

Now we embark on our second film….a much more ambitious undertaking.

What is steampunk you say? Steampunk personality, August Wahnsinger says, “Steampunk is Victorian-era science fiction. Anything that can be envisioned as a part of a scientifically advanced ‘steam’ era can be properly described as steampunk. Steampunk finds its origins in literature, going back to the works of Mary Shelley, Jules Verne and H.G. Wells.”
