Filmmaker Statement

'It's Not Show Friends, It's Show Business' is a unique and interesting script written by Scott Kyle. It's essentially the first chapter of his book 'It's Not Where You Start' and this is not something you typically would be challenged with to make into an animated film - an audiobook. Yet, it was an extremely rewarding process as it came to fruition and a whole lot of fun for the team involved! The feeling we aimed for was an almost ethereal, very atmospheric drama with strong motifs. The animation is very much secondary to the spoken-word story from Kyle's own life, voiced by himself. Yet, it illustrates and enhances the story, adding new layers visually woven nicely together with the wonderful soundscape by the multi-instrumentalist composer Chris James Marr. Overall, it has been an interesting, challenging, and enjoyable project that we can't wait to share with audiences and judges (hopefully with even more intriguing chapters of the story to come!)
