Hasta La Motion!

I am a graduate film student at Florida State University’s College of Motion Picture Arts (http://film.fsu.edu/About-FSU-Film/Awards) and I am seeking an animator(s) for a fantasy film that will screen at film festivals around the globe.

"The Bell" is a fantasy/fairy tale film in the vein of "Pan’s Labyrinth." For the prologue of my film, I wanted to have an animated sequence. I really enjoy the "shadow puppet" look to help sell the idea that the story is ancient.

These two animations really inspired me:

– Ryan Woodward’s "Breath of Life" videos

– "The Tale of the Three Brothers" from the latest Harry Potter film

Although I love the "The Tale of the Three Brothers," I think I want to go more for the 2D look, but this is definitely the vibe I am going for.

Because I am film student and I am financing this film myself, I have a small budget for this animation. With that said, I want to build relationships with animators for future projects.

If you are interest in this project, please email me: thebell.film@gmail.com

I look forward to hearing from you!

Cheers,
J
