Selling Ideas
I have been working on a project for just over a year now and I have my characters and stories done. Trying to animate the whole story would take me YEARS on my own, so I decided to make it into a comic strip using renders of my models and sets and adding captions.
It's all copyrighted - properly - and now I want to see if I can get any interest from production/publishing companies. I am writing to the BBC and a few book publishers but does anyone out there have any tips or help on who or how to pitch my project?
Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated, I can do the modelling, texturing and animating bit, it's the selling that I haven't got a clue about...
Tickety boo and ta ta for a bit...

I have read the articles in 3D World, it was in four parts issues June, July, August and September 2002 if I remember correctly. The first article was interesting, it basically said that you have gotta keep plugging your ideas and don't give up - it's tough! I personally think that if you believe what you are doing is good then stick at it, which I am.
The other articles talked about going to the next stage of the process writing scripts, working out costs, budgeting and targeting TV companies and producers... All I want is to show the ideas at this stage to see what these people think! This is where I am lost, no point woking out production schedules when you ain't got one in the first place!
Well, I got a few people to write to which I will do over Christmas so I will keep you posted to as to how wonderfully I fail... he, he, he. But you never know! I might even give everyone a sneek preview - but I am too nervous at the moment.

So....be patient and persistent....you'll get there....
You're going to get frustrated, ticked off, and probably want to give up....don't!!
Society has created an air of instant gratificatrion and I think it's damaged some potentially awesome talent out there. There are no secrets to "making it" and no magic pills. Work your butt off and you'll get what you want out of life.

It was a peanut’s cartoon; half of it was the one peanuts character that was selling lemonade for 25 cents. The other half was a huge building, over 20 stories high that said "free lemonade" heh...
May have nothing to do with this, but it reminded me of it, heh..
