It's all according to what you been smoking. For most people they aim, I start :)

Just kidding. I'm so straight it's scary. No alcoholic, no cigarettes and no drugs. Hey man, I just look the part.

The really crazy thing is 1M is kind of low. Even with my skill set 90% of it would go to the voice actors and the cost of the business end of the animation. 100k would be left over for the animators.

If you're asking for a mil, a description of the project would be nice, don't you think? :? :)

What will I do with the money donated?
Spend it on animating my book "Children of a Dark sky. & Alice."The animated film will be titled "Flyer"

Currently the only review of the book is on Amazon by:
Haylee Lawler (age 11) for Reader Views (4/06)

"Children of the Dark Sky & Alice" was a exciting story of a girl that teams up with the Flyer and has friends for the first time. In the story Alice, the story was really sad, but it was great too. In the story Orphans of the Dark Sky, that story was excellent and most exciting too. In the story Lost Child of the Dark Sky, that story is the best story I have read. That story should have come third after the Orphans of the Dark Sky because they are the best stories ever. Then Alice should come last in the book. That is the greatest story I have ever read in my whole life.

The book is a coming of age story that I wrote and self published in 2003. I never pushed it until now. Hopefully I will retire soon and will be able to concentrate on doing the animation of the book.

I would like to do a short of about 6 minutes and then do the rest of the story. About 80 minutes or feature length animation. I'm after the 2d animation quality of Miyazaki. The only difference would be using photo realistic backgrounds generated by a program call Vue.

You can read the 6 minute short at nice stories:

The amount of money I asking is not that out of bounds considering the cost of animation.

And of course Potty will need to be fixed.

Ohhh, I remember this story. Sounds like a really cool project. I think it will be a hard sell without any images or examples of animated scenes from the story. If you're planning to start animating after you retire, maybe now would be a good time to do some of that pre-production character and environment design. Looking forward to seeing more!

Give me a few days. I should have something. I have to go through some old computers.
