On this Sunday I received two letters from two respectful Film Festivals - Delta International Film Festival and Multi Dimensional Film Festival. Yes, as you guessed, our pilot episode "Sunny's Park - A Meowing Tree" was selected as a Finalist and also got an "Official Selection" award at the both festivals. It's really exciting news and a honor for me and Ira. What a wonderful start for our web-series! It's so important to know that we have a good base to continue our work on this project.
One of messages of our new animation project is to find and show ways of solving conflicts in a peaceful, non-violent way. With this idea in mind, I and my wife Ira created a pilot of a web-series, as we hope - "Sunny's Park - A Meowing Tree".
Our first story tells about a boy who climbs a tall tree to save his cat, but got scared to climb down. Sunny, the female lead of our series, helps the boy and the cat to overcome their fear and get down to the ground. It's a very short story, just 1 minute 14 seconds, but it contains a grain of how people can solve problems. We hope to explore this topic in our next episodes.
By the way, recently, we got news that our pilot episode became a Finalist at Delta International Film Festival in India and got "Official Selection" award at Multidimensional Film Festival in the UK. Well, that sounds like a good start =)
