Campaign
A "Screwtape" style propaganda social media campaign will warn people NOT to watch these films.
There is no King
Death to Pretenders
The world is hungry
for magic and meaning.
Fantasy touches the ache & wonder in our hearts.
That's why fantasy is so hugely popular.
Sadly, most secular fantasy leaves people empty & lost.
But their life-changing message is largely ignored by the general market.
So the message doesn't reach those who need it most.

An animated fantasy Adaptation of the best-Selling
tales of the kingdom books
"A beautiful allegory masterfully woven together and inspired by The One Who Always is. You will laugh, you will cry, and most of all you will learn to love the King and see oneself through His eyes."
"Tales of the Kingdom is the story of all of us, as we hunt for something of true value. The allegories provide a narrative tested by time; 30 years in fact! Filled with engaging characters fighting their own battles of inadequacy, mistakes and pain, Tales of the Kingdom is a can't put down wonder."
"My sons 8 and 9 year olds laughed and loved it. It was so touching that I even cried as I read it out loud."
"As a brand new follower of Jesus, the Tales of the Kingdom, like the Chronicles of Narnia, brought me huge encouragement and understanding of the new world I had entered."
"This was the most amazing story! So great for kids to learn the ways of the kingdom!"
"Love love love this book! I read this out loud to my kids and we couldn't get enough. I cried at about 80% of the stories (Just a warning!). Great stories of faith."
Will Hero escape from Enchanted City and find the exiled king of his mother's forbidden tales?
Can princess Amanda Defeat the renegade dragon she raised and loved,
before it destroys great park?

Change
the World
Through biblically faithful stories
Gripe about the world?
Or be an Inkling.
It's likely there were many people sitting around the Eagle and Child pub in mid 20th century Oxford, griping about the state of the world.
International conflict, corrupt politics, the economy...
There was another group in the back of the pub writing stories. They called themselves the Inkings.
They changed the world.
The Inklings included C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Dorothy Sayers, Charles Williams and others.

Vision Video
It was as though all these lost children had been hiding in this dark building, just waiting for a storyteller to come along.
Stories about a boy named Hero, who escaped Enchanted City to seek the king of his mother's forbidden tales.
A girl named Dirty who discovered king's love.
And a girl named Amanda who saved Great Park by killing the dragon she herself had raised.
Process and Budgets
-
Initial story work: books to treatments to screenplays
-
Concept art: character & world development, technology choices
-
Animatic: story boards, temporary voice performances, sound and music
-
30-60 second fully-animated sizzle reel
-
Budget - $50,000
Stage One - Series Pilot Animatic & Sizzle Reel
We use the sizzle reel and animatic to pitch the series to donors, investors and distributors. The story and world-building become the foundation of the series development.
Strategy
-
We chose to animate the Tales of the Kingdom rather than to film live action because animation is easier to translate and dub into the languages of the world.
-
The fantasy approach opens a door for those who are new to a faith message.
-
There is a great hunger for fantasy stories as evidenced by popular series like Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, the Studio Ghibli movies and Game of Thrones.
-
The Tales of the Kingdom fantasy stories renew our imagination and sense of wonder.
