The Dragon Tamers - An Animated Movie
Donation protected
Short Summary
Hello, my name is Helena Staple, I am a producer from the United Kingdom. My campaign is looking to fund the production of a fantasy children's movie adapting a tale from Edith Nesbitt's "Book Of Dragons", The Dragon Tamers. All donations will help greatly to make our vision become a reality!
What You Get
A donation of any amount: A credit in the completed movie. A donation of any kind will be greatly recognised by all members of The Dragon Tamers Crew!
A £5 donation: A Virtual Bronze Dragon Badge with your username or a custom name and credit in the "Bronze Dragon Donator" section in the movie credits. A donation of £5 would be highly recognised by all members of The Dragon Tamers Crew!
A £10 donation: A Virtual Silver Dragon Badge with your username or a custom name and credit in the "Silver Dragon Donator" section in the movie credits. A donation of £10 will be much recognised by all members of The Dragon Tamers Crew!
A £20 donation: A Virtual Gold Dragon Badge with your username or a custom name and credit in the "Gold Dragon Donator" section in the movie credits. A donation of £20 will be largely recognised by all members of The Dragon Tamers Crew!

What We Need
We are looking for an estimated amount of £3,500 GBP (Roughly $4,200 USD) to help produce this film. All excess funding will go to the 80+ volunteers who have helped complete the first and foremost production stages of this movie (Scripting, concept art, voice acting, music composition ETC...)
The Impact
Animating a 15-minute short film is a lot of work and can certainly not be done by one individual. Adding to this, finding volunteers who can animate together would be extremely difficult! Therefore, we are looking to pay a 3rd party professional animation team instead of trying to create a team independently.
This project is looking to create a big impact on the entertainment industry. In just a few short months I was able to gather a crew of 80+ to complete the first and most difficult stages of production, the scripting, concept art, voice acting and music composition. With the right funding, we would be able to complete this movie.
Risks & Challenges
As cool as this sounds, some obstacles may be faced on the way to producing this movie.
1) Personal life.
As my educational life is becoming more and more time-consuming, there may be less time for me to put into this project. This could make the project less active than its current form.
2) Other team members.
Team members may be hard to find and share a vision with.
3) Promotion and distribution.
Getting the right amount of funding might be difficult, but even if it does not happen straight away, it could build up gradually. If we complete the project, we possibly would not get as much attention as we had hoped.
Other Ways You Can Help
We understand that you may not be able to provide a donation, but there are other ways that you can contribute to the project.
Promoting this Indiegogo campaign.
Sharing this with friends, family, colleagues, classmates, and even on social media platforms (Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Masterdon, etc...) would be very helpful.
