Suggestions please...

Hi all ... i'm Hemant (new out here). I'm origionally from Africa but presently settled in india. Ever since i've been in the Animation Industry it's always been my dream to return to Africa and run an Animation Studio out there. Though i do not intend to Finance for it. I'm aware of the fact that animation is at it's minimum out there... but am also aware of the fact that all animation series n cartoons are imported from abroad. My intention is to return n make cartoons for the local channels... Need some suggestions out here .... pls

also tap the Govt. see if they will fund you. their might be an art council or something that will hook you up.

query??

From what i heard last year certain steps were taken to introduce 3d animation into the market, but this year no news on that. So like what dobermunk said it is going to be a long haul.... but not impossible ?? Tapping th govt. is great!! thnx.

First off, prepare yurself for a long haul. You'll need endurance.
Second, target specific areas that will help get your footing. Like TV idents, adverts, etc. and then prepare: gather contact adresses and create an impressive portfolio. Familiarize yourself with pricing and build a network of artists and potential co-producers.
Then, keep an eye out for opportunity. Maybe an Indian house is interested in the idea - or an investor somewhere.

Maybe a calling card in the form of a festival animation with African motives or stories (I love African fables).

Good luck!

Thanks alot dobermunk....
