One of the heroes of Iron Sky is by far Samuli Torssonen, a man who has devoted his mental stability (which wasn’t very high to begin with), his company, finances and – well, basically, his ass – to the project since 2006. Here I caught him on tape after a huge last crunch he and the whole team at Energia pulled off to provide us with top notch visual effects, and as you can tell, the guy is tired.
The music is provided by Zylth Projekt – more on them here!

Iron Sky is complete and will have its world premiere this February at the Berlin International Film Festival! Iron Sky is part of the official selection in the Panorama section, which screens films that push the envelope with unique vision.
What this means is that after six years of hard work Iron Sky will premiere at one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. We couldn’t be happier!
All in all there will be six screenings during the festival between 11th and 19th of February. For more information where to book tickets see our website. In addition we’re holding a party after the premiere screening with the cast & crew. The festival ticket office opens next month, but for the premiere screening and the party we have had a limited number of tickets available from the Iron Sky Store.
See you in Berlin!
Edit: And we’re sold out on our store. Didn’t take long. We try and organize more tickets but can’t promise anything.

Iron Sky has been in production for ages, and one of the last and the most important tasks is the sound design phase. Working with a Münich-based sound studio Wavefront Studios, whose head honcho Heiko Müller is our Sound Designer, we’ve managed to create a huge world full of sounds that’s quite unlike anything you’ve heard before. In this episode of Director’s Diary, I’m having a chat with Heiko about the production of the sounds for Iron Sky, and we even tell you a bit aboutThe Götterdämmerung. Whatever that is.
The music to this episode was provided by an awesome Finnish electro artists Phann Org – check out more of his work here!
Iron Sky is now on it’s very last legs of production, but your constant support is still required for us to pull this through and make sure we don’t fall on our asses in the very last minutes. Best way to support is to visit our store and gear your ass up for the winter with some Iron Sky clothes and whatever you might need. We’re also still accepting investments, so if you feel like you’re having a bit of loose cash and want to help us make sure everyone gets to see the film, and maybe even earn a bit while doing that, head on over here.
Ja suomalaiset toverimme: kuten ehkä olette tietoisia, Iron Sky on lähdössä ensi-iltakiertueelle läpi Suomen 13.3.2012, ja kiertuelippuja on saatavilla täältä. Osa paikkakunnista on jo loppuunmyyty ja liput löytävät jatkuvasti uusia ostajia, eli kannattaa securettaa omansa vielä kun ehtii, jos tällaisen Torssosmin viskaan tässä vaiheessa tiskiin! Tässä vielä video rundista, tsekatkaapa ja nähdään lauteilla!

The Iron Sky team would like to extend their warmest Christmas greetings to all our fans, friends, families and followers around the globe.
"Frohe Weihnachten!" -Klaus Adler
Thanks to everyone who has supported Iron Sky over the years. Without you we wouldn’t have this great film at our hands, one that we’re excited to jettison into the aether starting April 2012! Keep on fighting the Good Fight!
All the computers are rendering full speed, overlooked by master Torssonen, but in the meanwhile the whole team will rest for few days, to be ready to the monumental year 2012, after which nothing will ever be the same again!
