Here are some images of the materials we are working on.
There is quite a bit more, but I hesitate to post it on-line for obvious reasons.
We have advanced a great deal in our graphics
and now have at least 20 full color characters developed
as well as with many scenes from the story.
This is the look we are seeking to achieve for the animated film.
(
We hope to be producing a collection of all of our characters as
Garden Gnomes
Presented by
The Gnomeville Arts & Crafts Guild
and I expect our puppets to be based on these designs as well.
(I am looking for a distributor for these products)
I am now working on assembling a wonderful Graphic from "The Gnomes of New Hope". Jency & I work together to develop the material and then I assemble it into the appropriate scenes to go with the script.
The one that is being worked on now is a full color version of Scene Three - it is the meeting which has been called by The Mayor, Moss Lichen, in The Squirrel's Nest high above Constable Warren's office in the centre of Gnomeville. The graphic contains a wide selection of our characters as well as a view of the centre of Gnomeville. I think you will be as delighted by it as we are. We are getting ready to record the lyrics to The Diva's Lament which is a prelude to this scene.
I will be posting the scene here as a way of wetting your appetite for the stage show and the animated film. We are preparing the first volume of the music for release and I will be including as an extra to that volume - copies of the stage script attached to the songs.
I have discovered that I can do this in iTunes. So if you use iTunes to view artwork, I will be attaching the story as a bonus for you. This album will be a limited release to our business partners and associates and will not be a general release to the public. So if you would like to have a copy, then become an investor, business or creative partner.
As it stands now I am looking for (an undetermined number of) people who are able and willing to provide anywhere from $100 to $1,000 per week as an accumulating investment in "The Gnomes of New Hope". We have a few people doing this and it seems to work quite well. The advantages are that you can invest gradually according to your ability and derive the benefits of a Front Money investment. Everything up to $250K is considered Front Money and is used for pre-production expenses.
The Front Money Investment returns 300% on the back end and has other benefits. Further details of that will be provided to you on request. This investment will be used to support the development of the facility and to employ people to do the work we need to do in order to prepare for the full production effort. The funds can be earmarked as you see fit in the context of the project and the needs which we seek to fulfill.
