This is some really exciting news in the world of animation. Digital Domain is diving into full-feature 3D animated films... YAAAAAAEEEEEEHHHHH!!!!! They recently built a new, $40 million, state-of-the-art studio down in Port St. Lucie, FL that they are branding Tradition Studios. With the promise to house 500 jobs and the ambition to create original family fun features, Digital Domain is definitely paying attention to the top box office numbers over the past decade and wants to tap into the costly, yet highly successful 3D animated films.Tradition Studios first feature will be titled, "The Legend of Tembo". Directed by former Walt Disney Animation veterans Aaron Blaise and Chuck Williams, Legend of Tembo tells a story of a young African elephant who is captured, separated from his family and taken to India to be used in battle. Young Tembo must become something he is not in order to return home...
I LOVE the concept. It has character arc written all over it and I think its a very meaningful story that will definitely make an impact on audience members alike.
"The Legend of Tembo", is slated to be released in the fall of 2014. It will be at the top of my list.
