I have a hangover. Completing MAN Course in Pepe School Land after 9 months of hard work and intense nerves has spillovers. Suddenly you haven’t short-term goals neither deadlines, and after a few days of well deserved rest, and you are seized by a strange feeling of uncertainty … and now what?
Most schoolmates will start to work with their demo reel (1-2 minutes video compiling animated pieces as a cover letter) to find their own place in the labor market. I have another goal, and it’s time to launch the project that has brought me to this point of my life.

There are hopeless days , but also happy days. I’m putting all my eggs in one basket, and there is so much in play that every little news throws you from one emotive extreme to the opposite. Therefore is really important to be aware of the rules of the game, and try to avoid being swayed by these jolts inherent in this type of project.

When someone unconnected with a sector has a challenge like this project, doesn`t know where to start. No contacts, no money, no team and, even worse, do not know where or how get them. Even before entering the school I had an “attack plan”, but during these months I´ve become more aware of the project’s complexity and have discovered possible ways to achieve my goal.

I have my roadmap and I’m working on the first phase, that it will take the summer months, and during which I´ll finalize the script, the character design and the crowdfunding campaign.

Using a crowdfunding platform is an idea that has assaulted me during the last months of the course. It emerged as a simple possibility, but over time has established itself as the best way to proceed, at least during the early stages of the project. Roberto is a story that needs to be told from the love and artistic freedom and expression, and those assumptions seem ideal for this type of financing.

When “asking for money” to people who don`t know anything about you, it’s very important to offer them, in addition to your passion, quality assurance and commitment. Fortunately my journey has begun with the support of certain people who are embracing the project, contributing their professionalism, wisdom and passion. Bright-eyed people, who love what they do and that are always open to new suggestions. I’m really excited to have found some of them in such a short time, and to me is invaluable to count on with their help.

Personas de ojos brillantes

I’m really living an unique experience and, once some key pieces have begun to fit, I have absolute faith in that Roberto will be a reality.
