Hello everyone! It's been a while since my last journal entry. I have a bit of news that I would like to share.

First of all, "Journey of Heroes" is going great. The script for the first episode is done, and I have been making changes and coming out with some new ideas for it. Here is the situation however...

I have been extremely busy.

Just how many of you have posted on your own journals and blogs, I have been very busy with school, work and many other things. Classes go on for 3 weeks until they are finished, and I have been swamped. I have been trying to write JOH while working and doing school, and have been under stressful situations. Im telling you, quizzes every week and tons and tons of homework. It's fun and everything because they are audio and video classes (we are working with half million dollar equipment), but I took a look at my script that I had been writing when I was REALLY stressed and...

It was horrible. Not the whole thing, but you know when you write something then you take a look back on it and go...WTF? Yeah. I spent two months working my ass off on it, and I was like...whoa!

So, I asked one of my instructors, who was working on a film documentary on homelessness, on what he does when he is kind of "burnt out" from writing and thinking about the film. He said "Take a week off. Let it sit in your subconcious for a while. I had to have someone look at my film and edit some of it because I was so burnt out from it I was losing perspective."

I really want to make this film. It's something that I absolutley have to make, and want to make. I know what I want, but I have to be not so busy and stressed in order to think clearly.

So, here's the deal. JOH is still on and is going to be made SOON. I am not putting the film on hiatus. I am not going to come back to it 3 years later. I am just taking a week off from it to get a perspective on things. I want this to be the most enjoyable experience for everyone, and I am going to wait alittle bit to work on the script until school is not so hecktic, which is in 3 weeks. It has been helping because now I am finding inspiration everywhere, and now scenes that I thought were cool already are going to be even better. Trust me, this film is going to be awesome!

If anyone wants to acutally help write the script or take a look at it, let me know through a comment or note here. I'll send it to them and then if you want to create something or put some input into the story, let me know. Also, I am focusing on character looks and concept art as well during my break,a nd I have drawn a few sketches of locations, so if anyone still wants to draw or anything like let, please let me know. I have more than 15 ppl working on this right now.

For my Pre-Production class, I am working on a script for a trailer for this film as well. It's almost done, so be ready for that too!

Hope to talk to you soon!

Hello! I am currently making a film titled "Journey of Heroes". The film is an anime film that I have been working on for some time.Allow me to explain some background information about this...
Just last year, my father was diagnosed with Lung Cancer from years of smoking. During this time, I began writing this story in order to cope. Not only is it an incredible journey for the characters in my film, but also one for me, which is something I would like to share with the world. The story is about a young girl who is thrust into a magical world that is seperated by war by two sides: the Industrialists who believe in moving forward and upgrading their way of life, and the Naturalists, who believe that the old ways should be used forever. During the girl's travels, she meets many new characters, including a love interest with a secret past. There is much more to this story, but I do not have the space to tell it all (plus I do not want to give it all away :)). I have always been into filmmaking, and I want to give anyone and everyone a chance to be a part of this huge project that has been started and being taken notice on YouTube. I have many people who have auditioned for this film, and I have over 50 characters up for audition as of late.

My goal is to have many different animators and musicians, as well as others who have been interested in film. For example, one episode may be designed differently then the next because a different animator made that episode. Also, I believe that a film should have different sounds, music and tone, in order to make it more realistic. So, I will be needing many musicians to score my film. I already have many talented artists on Youtube, but I am still looking for more. A film should have many voices, and this one shall too.

I am currently looking for:
animators
storyboard artists
sound effects persons
musicians
promotional artists

I want to make this a large, fanbased project that unites aspiring musicians, voice actors and animators. I want to tell my story to the world through your talented ways. If you are interested, please send me a message at journeyofheroes@hotmail.com or PM me here. Thank you, and I hope that you will consider this great opportunity in the world of anime.
