Our approach

We are a Music/Multimedia business that loves storytelling history through combination of music, animation, art, and film to effectively best present the vast and rich, wealth of story that is found through the study of history, particularly local history.

 

Overall goal

 

To help educate and entertain the local and wider public through making 'Media Stories' is our main goal, through the support of local communities and talented people to get involved in the development of such projects and spread the enthusiasm and awareness of the rich, local history will have numerous benefits to the local economy, local identity and providing opportunities. 

​

 Each 'Media Story' or 'Animated Musical Production' is:

 

  • Produced with strongly thorough research at the foundation, a reliable source anyone can use for their studies or to quench their curiosity.

 

  • The music branches across many musical styles and genres, blending traditional with modern music styles, 'genre blending' is not a new concept but one that is ever growing, such creative approach presents the history/stories through fresh interpretations, while allowing for future editions and interpretations to be created.

​

  • The visuals elements such as artwork, video work and animation for the most part are developed in house, especially the former at our current position. We are evolving to reach to using new techniques and opportunities to create videography and fluid animation in the future, we are looking to create motion visuals for the audio aspect we create dominantly. 

​​

To follow a style similar to Stop-motion animation, with mini stages are constructed and complemented with hand drawn 'props' and characters, and supported with juxtaposed visual effects. This one method we have explored working on Gloriana. Black silhouette of actors with digital backgrounds is another path we went in the 'Rise of Copperopolis' for Copperheart 2020. Growing means to do this organically ourselves is what we will pursue first, as we develop, our opportunities with develop. 

​

On each journey that is attached to the development of each Media Story, there is always exciting things to learn. Collaborations that are made are always both big and diverse! From meeting and working with aspiring and highly talented musicians, amazing voice-actors, enthralling animators and artists, to meeting with stout members of the community such as the incredible museum curators and historians as well as the general public themselves of course.
