Hi all of my lovely Leeds Met animation guys and girls,
I just received the following email from a chat, which sounds very interesting indeed. The idea seems to be that you could either do this as a live project brief (perhaps for your final project in L6) with a deadline of 3 Months from now, or you might want to tackle this as a side project.
Dear Darren
I hope that you can help me with my enquiry…
… I am part of a new venture, an ad agency/design and animation studio that will be starting up in York with a strong emphasis on forming training and educational links.
We have a live brief which we were wondering if one or two of your more able students would be interested in getting involved in. We will be able to fund the work produced but it will probably be in the region of three hundred pounds. We are looking for two or three one or two minute animation sequences of drawn animation of a small girl walknig through a woodland glade. The style wants to be somewhere between Disney, Tim Burton and Secret of Kells, with a bit of Arthur Rackham thrown in there.
We are also hoping to get a music score produced by students at the music college to use with this. The animation is to be used at our launch party in about three months time, which will be getting television, magazine and press coverage, and there will be some major celebrities at the launch, and as such it will be a great opportunity for a student to get a foot in the door so to speak.
If there are a couple of students who this may help out, it would be great to hear from you. You can see my work credentials on www.redshiftarts.co.uk
Best wishes

So see what you all reckon and then let me know directly ASAP. I will inform Ralph and we will see what happens.
