Hello Shem -
That's an interesting name you've chosen - it brought three different
"pictures" to mind immediately.
You are quite correct - Google Advanced search does not show any
"Rising Crane Productions" in its database.
In addition, a search of trademarks or trade names for "rising crane"
or "rising crane productions" at the US Patent and Trademark Office
failed to show any trademark registration in the US under those names,
either.
The USPTO search for trade names/trademarks is at:
http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=searchss&state=ob11id.1.1
A check of state databases for the trade names or corporations by the
name of "rising crane" or "rising crane productions" came up blank as
well. The state registration information for checking listings is at:
http://statetm.tripod.com/databases.htm
However, a check of the Whois database for the domain name
"risingcrane.com" showed the name isn't available. It is registered
to:
Registrant Contact:
Richard Sanchez (sponsors@minimumeffort.com)
Claremont St
Auckland, NONE 1001 NZ
Creation date: Sat Nov 10 2001 04:50:03
Expiration date: Mon Nov 10 2003 04:50:03
As a further bit of information, there is a Rising Crane Studio
(domain name risingcranestudio.com) - which returns to Register.Com.
The name isn't in use and hopefully wouldn't be mistaken for the name
you are choosing.
The hyphenated name rising-crane.com is available.
The whois database can be found here:

So it appears the name you have chosen, Rising Crane Productions, is
available for you to set up your limited liability company.
