Many of you have been asking how Annabelle's Bistro has been going and unfortunately, I have been unable to let a lot of information out of the bag in recent months. Now that all the details have been worked out, and production is in full swing, I can reassure everyone that the film is alive and well...and better than ever!
I am an instructor in the Multimedia department at Bradley University, and recently the department expressed interest in producing the film at the university. This was an opportunity that I simply could not pass up. The only thing I love more than animation is teaching, and getting the chance to do both and have it relate directly to Annabelle's Bistro is amazing! We have many talented students in the program and with their help, this film will become something that it would never had been had I continued to plug away on my own.
I have secured the domain annabelles-bistro.com. This will serve as a spot on the web for the film to live. The site will contain quite a few cool features including a detailed production blog maintained by everyone working on the film. Look for that to go live in early December.
In addition, two of my students are producing The Official Annabelle's Bistro Podcast. This will be a weekly podcast which will chronicle the production of the short film. It is up and available now so feel free to follow along as we work diligently to complete the film by June 1st, 2009. (yikes!)
