THE EPILOGUE OF ENDINGS [PILOT]

THE EPILOGUE OF ENDINGS [PILOT]

KickStarter Campaign (ACCEPTING LATE PLEDGES!) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/epilogueofendings/the-epilogue-of-endings-animated-pilot-0 My Website: https://rainbott.weebly.com/ Tempest JoyBott Animation: https://www.instagram.com/tempestjoybott ____________________ Given the fact that this project had little to no budget, an insanely short production window, and it was created entirely by students? I think we did an awesome job! This was originally a series of short stories I wrote for class. After growing attached to the characters, I teamed up with two of my friends from Welcome to Dreamworld to bring the story to life! We launched a Kickstarter to raise the funds we’d need for the animation, hoping to earn minimum wage, and it completely flopped. Thus, we created a second Kickstarter to raise money for the audio instead, hoping to pay ourselves for the animation with any additional funds we made later. As soon as we secured funding, we picked up a few fellow art students to help with the animation, and we were off! The entire pilot was created in the span of roughly 3 months. This was because we could only afford to work on the project over summer break, since the majority of the team (including me) are students who needed to go back to school at the end of summer. If anything, this pilot is a labor of love. I am incredibly proud of the team behind this project. While I don’t know what the future is for The Epilogue of Endings, I know this isn’t the last we’ll see of these characters… ____________________ Created by Rainbott DIRECTORS Rain Payton Polak Nichelle Derpy Collier Twilight Sanchez VOICE CAST LaKira Porter as Lucy Harry Dyer as Blu Daniel Aguilar as Mole KMODO (Robbie Quinn) as CG Jett Barker as Acedia WRITING Rain Payton Polak STORYBOARD ARTIST Nichelle Derpy Collier BACKGROUND ARTISTS Twilight Sanchez Ella Cleary ROUGH ANIMATOR Nichelle Derpy Collier CLEANUP ARTISTS Olive Scaramuzzi Georgia Whitbread Deandra Williams Kitten Cloudy Ella Cleary Rain Payton Polak COMPOSITOR Rain Payton Polak 2D ASSET ARTIST Ella Cleary "OUR NEW NORMAL" Composed & Performed by KMODO (Robbie Quinn) ADDITIONAL MUSIC Robbie Quinn Finn Camden SOUND DESIGN & MIXING Rain Payton Polak DIALOGUE EDITOR Edward Rothby

SPOOKY'S ESCAPE | Cream & Spooky Animated Short

SPOOKY'S ESCAPE | Cream & Spooky Animated Short

Limited edition Spooky plushies are available to order until March 8th! Don't miss out: https://bit.ly/3NTbhBb Like my work? Consider supporting me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/roseshards Another set of owners, a strange dark road, and suddenly everything changes for Spooky. What was his life like before he became a ghost? How did he find himself at the mansion? Hopefully this little short I did answers some questions! Here it is... my latest Cream & Spooky animation! PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, this is NOT episode one, nor is it an official clip FROM episode 1/the pilot. This is just a concept piece for how I imagine the first episode of the series would open. When I actually do get to the CAS pilot (yes, plans are in the works!) this scene will definitely be longer and answer more questions. This has been a passion project for me from the start, and I practically did everything on this--the animation, backgrounds, rigging, compositing, etc. Except of course for the the voice acting, music, & creating sound effects (though I did do the audio mixing!). My goal is to make longer content, but it's a lot of work for one person, so I'd like to hire a team at some point. It's not realistic for me to make a 3-4 minute scene on my own. If you'd like to support the project, sharing this video, buying the plush, or donating on Patreon would be super appreciated. I'm proud of what I was able to accomplish on my own, especially while working fulltime... let's just say there have been a lot of late nights and caffeine, haha. I also have an even bigger short coming in the next 3 weeks, which I can't wait for you to see.... 👀 SERIES DESCRIPTION: The afterlife is supposed to be a place of peace and relaxation... isn't it? So why are strange things happening in this unique and magical world? CREAM & SPOOKY is an animated mystery/adventure series about two ghost cats who meet and become best friends in the afterlife. They're all about adventure and having fun, whether they're exploring their vast new powers in the Cryptic Universe or scaring humans back on earth in their haunted mansion. But it's not long before they discover that their bright, celestial world harbours dark, terrifying secrets, and it's up to them to figure out what's going on before it's too late. While I didn't intend to connect these two shorts since the first one is pretty old (4 years this April... gasp), this animation happens to take place directly before my "Cream & Spooky First Meet" clip, which can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGsbtBmms1w&t=1s&pp=ygUQY3JlYW0gYW5kIHNwb29reQ%3D%3D CREDITS: VOICE ACTORS: LaKira Porter - https://twitter.com/kaotickiii Hamish Plaggemars - https://twitter.com/HJPlaggemarsVA Karim Theilgaard - https://www.instagram.com/karimtheilgaard/ / https://bit.ly/karimimdb MUSIC: The Furthermores - Shadow Falls End theme by Circletone Sound effects sourced from Pixabay and Epidemic Sound!

About Me

About

Hiya! I'm LaKira Porter, she/her, a Queer and Black voice actor who hails from Detroit, MI, yes the mitten state! I grew up loving theatre, acting, and singing. I did all those things off and on throughout my life. I've always loved playing pretend so of course, I fell in love with voice acting too-eventually.

I've always loved watching cartoons as well, seeing all the breathtaking animation and storytelling was just so inspiring! Thanks to shows like Nickelodeon's iteration of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Gravity Falls is why I fell for voice acting. I wanted to inspire people just like those actors did for me. So November 2019, I finally began my voice-over career and I have no plans of going back. 

I have lent my voice to animation, commercials, video games, and just won a Webby People's Voice Award! I have studied under Arianna Ratner, Portia Scott (Coast to Coast Talent), Ashley Nguyen DeWitt, Joe Hernandez, and many more.
