New Animated Film in Pre-Production
Phil
feature-length animation - entitled Bad Penguin.
The goal: to re-energize the genre of traditional animation, and bring
to the screen a new feature film, animated in the style of classic
Disney/Warner Brothers films. Production of the film will also
provide apprenticeship opportunities to new and promising animation
talent; sorely missing since the early days of Disney.
Geared to more mature audiences, Bad Penguin is a black comedy about a
blind street musician who befriends an angry, armed-to-the-teeth
penguin who wishes to teach the world how it feels about Christmas.
For a better grasp of the story, imagine what would happen if Bugs
Bunny and Quentin Tarantino had a baby...

Some people have asked that we fill in the gap between our high end
pledge gifts. Our response was to include an animator gift package:
three books written and signed by Tony White: "Animation from Pencils
to Pixels - Classical Techniques for Digital Animators," "How To Make
Animated Films," and "Jumping Through Hoops: The Animation Job Coach."
Plus you'll get a signed copy of the storyboards.
