00:00Hi, my name is Josh and I'm the director of Elephant Tracks. Elephant Tracks is a story
00:07about a man named Wesley who must overcome guilt and grief in order to rekindle his relationship
00:13with his mother. In our story, Wesley encounters a situation that he, you know, kind of throws him
00:18for a loop and he blames himself for this situation and it causes a lot of guilt and
00:23grief in his life. And with the help of his childhood stuffed elephant, he learns how to
00:28overcome this guilt and grief and like I said, ultimately rekindle his relationship
00:33with his mother. This is a very ambitious project and story and I could not do it by
00:37myself so I've gathered a whole team to help me create my vision and make it come to life.
00:42Hi, I'm Nori Griffith, one of the storyboard artists and animators on Elephant Tracks.
00:47Hello, I'm Claire Nismal and I am a colorist on the Elephant Tracks project.
00:51Hi, my name is Cynthia Boboza. I am a background artist for this project.
00:56Hello, my name is Kiana Herod and I am a background artist for Elephant Tracks.
01:01I was invited onto the project early last summer. I took a look at the script, did a storyboard for one of the scenes and over the course of working on that scene, I developed a real affection for the character.
01:13As a colorist, I put colors into the story and there are specific color palettes I have to use.
01:18So like a desaturated color palette shows that he's not going through a great time, while a saturated color palette shows like he's happier now and he's going to get better.
01:27People should be excited for this project because there is so much like talent and enthusiasm going into it.
01:35The team that has been gathered for this project are insanely talented and they're driven and they want to see this project come alive and be out there for people.
01:45This is just a small part of the incredible team I have helping me create this project.
01:50But there's one more thing that this project needs in order to help it come to life, and that's you.
