Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWire) -- 11/23/2018 --Theo Stefanski studied animation and cinematography at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and has spent his career working with table top animation. His latest project, Gotterdammerung, is a film shot in classical stop motion animation. He is currently seeking support via Kickstarter to bring this project and story to life.
Gotterdammerung follows two tribes of skeletons and their struggle for dominance of the high ground. A story about the haves and have-nots, the turning point occurs through divine intervention or circumstance, enabling the Low Land tribe to make a tool, a weapon, to slay the others.
Aside from the behavioral/philosophical underpinnings, this film incorporates animated action and visual splendor. Using armatures and a miniature set, projected on a sky background, the style mimics that of Ray Harryhausen. The film will be shot with an anamorphic lens from the 1950's.
The Kickstarter campaign is located on the web at: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gotterdammerung/gotterdammerung-classically-animated-in-cinemascop
Supporters around the world can back this project by making generous pledges and donations. Supporters can make pledges ranging from $10 to $1,000 or more, and each pledge comes with a series of rewards. Moreover, some associated rewards are being offered with worldwide shipping starting in September 2022. More information is available on the Kickstarter campaign page but be sure to act fast as supplies are limited.
