Industrial Brothers
We believe that valuable children's entertainment gives kids a sense of personal empowerment and a feeling of ownership with the content they interact with. As media becomes more interactive and mobile, there is now a chance for them to create their own stories and become a part of a much bigger world outside of their own. We believe imagination should be valued in each individual, and shared with the world. Located in Toronto (Canada), Industrial Brothers was created in order to allow us the opportunity to develop our ideas from initial concept to final delivery. We are currently working on a number of projects including both television shows and computer games.
