Hello, and thank you for visiting our page! We are a group of two Computer Animation seniors at Ringling College of Art and Design, and we are in the process of completing our thesis film.
For the past year, we’ve worked on all the aspects of production that would otherwise take place in an animation studio. We pitched a story idea, reworked it again and again (and again), designed characters, environments, and props, and completed a three minute animatic which will serve as the backbone for our final film. We have also created 3D models of the characters based on our original designs, and are in the process of animating them. By the summer of 2016, each shot of our film will be lit, textured and rendered.
Although we know we can make the final film great, it would still feel incomplete without a quality musical score and sound. With your help, we can hire an amazing composer, a sound design team, and authentic voice talent to create a soundtrack that will enhance every moment of our film. We are currently collaborating with Corey Wallace, who has worked on a number of live-action and animated short films, as well as many award-winning Ringling shorts. We are asking for $1,500 to help us cover the cost of the composer, any additional musicians he may hire for creating the score, and the cost for the sound design team.
Any extra contributions will be used towards the cost of the score, voice actors and entry fees for film festivals.
Thank you so much everyone, this means the world to us; and thank you for helping us make the film the best it can be!
