Our Story
Team Generous is a creative collaborative annually donating animated films to NGO's to support their work for a better world. 12 professional filmmakers volunteer their time for 2 weeks to make these shorts. We've made films for Save the Children, Medics Without Borders, and World Wildlife Fund. Team Generous Canada made a short film in September, 2014, on Vancouver Island to support Habitat for Humanity. The short film premiered for World Habitat Day. We are committed to using our skills and expertise to 'make a film - make a difference' for a better world!

Days 11 => 14: The Final Sprint

The last few days were such a rush of finishing up that we weren't able to post every day -- we're so sorry about that! Everybody was working twice as hard as usual, but it was worth it; the film is beautiful! We've compiled some final frames and a shot for you to check out before the premiere in Campbell River on Saturday, October 4th, where you'll get to see the full project and lots more!  The on-line release of the film will be Monday, in celebration of UN World Habitat Day!

 A couple of final shots (don't want to give too much away!)








Some representative frames prior to colour adjustments.
After wrapping up work on Sunday, we had the studio to break down and put back into boxes-- our appreciation for our generous supporter for the loan of our computers and to Annex Pro and Wacom for the Cintiqs!  What a great platform for our creativity and art!!

The Team all returned to their various homes and the film is moving into post-production, with sound design, final picture, scoring, sound mix, colour grade, and output!  Shout out to sound designer Matt Gionet of Earworm Sound and film composer Alain Mayrand for their fantastic contributions that are adding so much to the story and emotion.  Rainmaker Entertainment has enabled our mix with Deluxe and Side Street Post is kindly handling our colour and output.  We have a few more intense days to get the final piece ready for the premiere.

We hope you've enjoyed this peek behind the curtain on what happened during the making of this Team Generous 2D animated film. Please keep checking our social media for updates -- there's more to come! 

Thanks for all your support as backers, readers and active followers during the first-ever Team Generous Canada event and for helping us 'make a film make a difference'!!
