More interviews in the pipeline

Update #4 · Apr 17, 2012 · comment

Hello all!

Great news! We have made connections with several Greek-related news outlets. One is here in this country, two others are in Greece (a newspaper and a television station).

As Greek4Fun IS primarily about Greece, it is very important for us to gt our message out to as many of these outlets as possible.

Of course, once Greek4Fun is fully funded, we will be able to complete the entire game and then later, we can interchange Greek with just about any other language. Most of the animation is reusable in this way. It is simply a matter of changing some of the lip-synching and some of the props. Other than that, it will be good to go.

I am uploading another little snip of the animation I have been working on.

Yours,

Taylor
