										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we near the release of the first episode of the Celflux Animated Series, we have a treat for our fans. A short that we worked on last year that we did not release. It&#8217;s called <em><strong>The Deserter </strong></em>and it tells a bit of the backstory of Dr Louis Deplanq who appeared in <a href="https://celflux.com/celflux-issue-1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Celflux issue no.1</a>.</p>
<p>At a hidden laboratory deep in the wastelands of Yoro, a lonely figure resigns himself to a fate he did not choose but one that he realizes is inevitable. Dr Louis De Planq, former Chief Scientist and head of research of the Keepers, reflects on his life and the choices he has made that have brought him to this place. In the face of great peril, he has done all that he can do and now must leave the rest up to the uncertainty of fate.</p>
<p>Let us know what you think. As always if you think it&#8217;s cool, feel free to share.</p>
<p>Dr. Louis DePlanq voiced by the legendary writer/actor <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0418666/?ref_=tt_cl_t3" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Stephen Jared</a><br />
Music by <a href="https://incompetech.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kevin McLeod</a></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings Celflux fans. </p>
<p>We here at Celflux are continually humbled and thankful for the doors that continue to open for our small indie project. Most of our updates these days are about our current project the <a href="http://bit.ly/celfluxfilm" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Celflux Animated short</a>. However, our graphic novel is still very much in production. Other independent creators can testify that because of limited time, people and resources things move a bit slower. Nevertheless, you do what you can and grab opportunities as they come along. <span id="more-2178"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" src="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1.jpg" alt="" width="940" height="1329" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2144" srcset="https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1.jpg 940w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1-212x300.jpg 212w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1-724x1024.jpg 724w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1-768x1086.jpg 768w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1-300x424.jpg 300w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cover_Vol_II3-1-600x848.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" /></a></p>
<p>One such opportunity has arisen for our graphic novel. We recently published Celflux issue no.3 and entered it into CODE&#8217;s Burt Award Caribbean Literature. In collaboration with Canadian organization <a href="https://www.codecan.org/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">CODE</a>, the <a href="http://www.bocaslitfest.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Bocas Lit Fest</a> manages <a href="http://www.bocaslitfest.com/2018/burt-award/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">CODE&#8217;s Burt Award for Caribbean Literature</a>, a literary award that recognizes literary works by Caribbean authors for Young Adults. </p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I was little I would hurry home after school because I knew that one of my favourite shows would be coming on at a certain time and I didn&#8217;t want to miss a minute of it. I would get home and take up my position in front of the television and it was understood that for the next 30 minutes I was not to be disturbed. When the show started the screen would go completely red and then the symbol of a cat would appear. I would lose my mind. That show was <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThunderCats_(1985_TV_series)" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Thundercats (1985)</a>. This wasn&#8217;t my first experience with cartoons and animation. Oh no. This had been my pattern of behaviour for a very long time and still is up till today. <span id="more-1983"></span></p>
<h2><strong>The Early Days</strong></h2>
<p>I first started sitting in front of the television as early as the age of five. Jonny Quest (1964 ), Birdman (1967), The Herculoids (1968), Space Ghost (1968) and, Thundarr The Barbarian (1980) were some of my early introductions to cartoons. I fell in love with animation immediately. I loved seeing these characters with superpowers in action and I remember thinking to myself, even way back then, &#8220;Boy I wish I could do that someday.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the 80s I was introduced to a lot of great animated sci-fi and fantasy movie classics. Watership Down (1978), Heavy Metal (1981), The Secret of Nimh (1982), Rock and Rule (1983), Fire and Ice (1983), Starchaser The Legend of Orin (1985), Transformers The Movie (1986), Gi Joe The Movie (1987), Gandahar (1988) and, Brave Starr The Movie (1988). This is just a small list and I haven&#8217;t even touched on the Japanese animation that I discovered in the 80s and 90s. I singled these out because they had the greatest effect on me at the time. So my hope was that one day, maybe, I would be able to animate something.</p>
<div id="attachment_1986" style="width: 1930px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies.jpg"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1986" class="size-full wp-image-1986" src="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" srcset="https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies.jpg 1920w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies-300x169.jpg 300w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies-768x432.jpg 768w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Old_Movies-600x338.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-1986" class="wp-caption-text">Just a few of the classic sci-fi and fantasy animated movies that I came across in the 1980s.</p></div>
<h2><strong>The First Celflux Trailer</strong></h2>
<p>When Dixie Ann and I decided to create Celflux I wanted to create a trailer to help promote the book. The first one that I did was similar to a motion comic. Have a look at it here.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hYGePbDxjNw?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>It was cool and got the job done. I simply used the images from the comic itself and put them in the video. At the end of the trailer, I did my first animated footage and it was of Samantha doing a flyby. I realised then that the next trailer that I did had to have more than just the motion comic.</p>
<blockquote><p>When you have a burning desire to create, you find a way to make it happen.</p></blockquote>
<p>I started this post talking about Thundercats. The reality is I&#8217;ve always loved 80s cartoon intros. Bionic Six, Thundercats, Silver Hawks, Visionaries, you name it. I loved the action and energy demonstrated during those intros. Have a look at this Visionaries Knights of the Magical Light intro.</p>
<p>So I wanted to do a trailer for Celflux with an 80s cartoon tribute feel to it. I didn&#8217;t have the skill or know-how though, so I decided to approach some animation studios to get some quotations. I got quotations of $20K and 30K for a 30-second intro. Astronomical and rightly so. Make no mistake animation is a very difficult, tedious and technical process. So I couldn&#8217;t be angry with anyone who charges those prices for their animation work. It is well deserved. I, however, did not have that kind of money. So what was I to do? I thought to myself &#8220;Perhaps crowdfunding?&#8221;. Crowdfunding is a strange creature and is not for everyone. Many people see the success of certain crowdfunding campaigns and think that it&#8217;s easy to do. We have a saying in Trinidad. &#8220;Gopaul luck, ain&#8217;t Seepaul luck.&#8217; It means what one person will get away with, another person will not be so lucky. Therefore, we decided against that. So we didn&#8217;t have the money and couldn&#8217;t raise it. Most folks would give up on the idea at this point. But my fellow indie creators can bear witness that we don&#8217;t give up that easily. When you have a burning desire to create, you find a way to make it happen. I thought about that little boy sitting in front of the television all those years ago hoping that he would someday animate something and realised, that little boy&#8217;s time had come. I was going to teach myself how to animate, and I was going to attempt to animate the 30-second trailer myself.</p>
<h2><strong>Is it Possible To Animate Alone?</strong></h2>
<p>This is a question I had to ask myself. As I said earlier, animation is a very difficult, tedious and technical process. Hence the reason there are usually teams of people working on any given animated project. So I had to find out if it was possible for one person to do it all by themselves. I was happy to discover that the answer was a resounding YES! I found that there are hundreds of talented animators out there creating masterpieces all by themselves. The advances in technology and the availability of software has made high-quality animation possible for the single creator. There are several case studies, but the one that stands out to me was the story of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makoto_Shinkai" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Makoto Shinkai</a>.</p>

<p>Makoto Shinkai born as Makoto Niitsu, is a Japanese director, writer, producer, animator, editor, cinematographer, voice actor, manga artist and former graphic designer. The story is told that in May 2001, Makoto quit his job at a video game company and began to work on a film called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voices_of_a_Distant_Star" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Voices of a Distant Star</a>. As he would later say in an interview, the 20-minute film took about seven months of &#8220;real work&#8221;. The film went on to be critically acclaimed and is talked about even to this day. The work on Voices is fantastic and one is hard-pressed to believe it was all done by one person. But it was. So it was possible. I decided then to apply myself. Look at tutorials on YouTube. Learn about the animation process, frame rates, cinematography, lighting, film editing and so on. It was a learning process but I put my best foot forward. The result was the first Celflux Animated Trailer. It had a lot of room for improvement, but I was happy with it. So we put it online and set it loose. It racked up about 14K views (on Facebook) in a relatively short period of time. By no means viral, but it encouraged us that we did something worth watching.</p>

<h2><strong>The Celflux Animated Short.</strong></h2>
<p>Many folks saw the first Celflux trailer and gave us some great feedback. One of the individuals was Ms Camille Selvon Abrahams. She is the owner of <a href="http://fullcircleanimation.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Full Circle Animation Studios</a> and the head organiser of an event called <a href="http://www.animaecaribe.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Animae Caribe</a> that takes place annually here in Trinidad and Tobago. She saw the trailer online and extended an invitation to us to be guests at Animae Caribe. We&#8217;re eternally grateful to her for this because she gave us an opportunity to introduce Celflux to a local audience. The response to Celflux was fantastic. Our books and t-shirts sold out and everyone has some really encouraging words for us about our animated trailer. Because of the positive response to the first trailer at Animae Caribe and online, I asked Dixie Ann if she thought we should try to do an animated short film. Dixie Ann is always encouraging and convinced me that I could do it. So I again decided to do more research into the process of creating an animated short. This was going to be more involved than the first trailer. This was going to have a story, and actors, and lots of other cool stuff. So I got to work on the planning. The first thing I did was write a script. I had to learn how to do this as well. Scriptwriting is a skill. Much respect to those who do it for a living. With a few drafts and much trial and error, I was able to complete a stand-alone story featuring the characters of Celflux. The second thing I needed was voice actors. I found the <a href="http://voiceacting.boards.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Voice Acting Club</a> and I put out a call for people willing to collaborate on the Celflux Animated Short project. To our surprise, we got quite a few responses from folks wanting to be a part of it. All of them very talented. We eventually settled on a group that we believe are not only the most talented, but the most decent, helpful and genuine individuals you would ever hope to meet. We are lucky to have them on board.</p>

<p>We want to thank Kate Sample as she was the one who brought on board Demetria Bridges who is the voice of our leading lady Okira. We also want to say thanks to Matthew Curtis as he was the one who brought on board Gwenaël Mario Grisi who would become our talented musical composer. We also want to thank Tracy Pfau who was responsible for bringing on board her husband Stephen Jared and her good friend George Sharperson. I sent them the script, and they all recorded their lines and sent them back to me. We were going to do this. For no other reason than it&#8217;s something, we wanted to do. I then had everything I needed to begin working on the next thing. A trailer.</p>
<h2><strong>The Celflux Secret Weapon Trailer</strong></h2>
<p>Like the first trailer, I had new things to learn. I needed to learn sound editing. How to match up the sound effects with the action. How to synchronise the character&#8217;s mouth movements with the voices and so on. So once again there was a learning curve. But I was following in the footsteps of all the other talented independent animators that had gone before me so it could be done. After about 5 months of work, I was able to complete and release the first trailer for the Celflux Animated Short. Have a look at the trailer here:</p>

<p>In April of this year, after some encouragement from one of the voice actors Tony Black, we submitted a proposal to <a href="http://www.creativett.co.tt/">CreativeTT</a>. There was an open call for individual filmmakers to receive grants for film projects. The Trinidad and Tobago Creative Industries Company Limited (CreativeTT) is a wholly-owned State enterprise established by The Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago through the Ministry of Trade and Industry. CreativeTT’s mandate is to stimulate and facilitate the business development and export activities of the Creative Industries in Trinidad and Tobago to generate national wealth and, as such, the company is responsible for the strategic and business development of the three (3) niche areas and subsectors under its purview- Music, Film, Fashion. In May, we received an email from CreativeTT that told us the Celflux project was selected to receive a grant for Marketing and Distribution. We can&#8217;t really talk about our plans yet, but suffice to say we are seeking to take Celflux to the next level.

<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>So that&#8217;s the story of how the Celflux Animated Short came to be. We began working on Celflux the graphic novel in 2013, and had no idea where it would take us. Now four years later, we&#8217;re working on an animated short with a great group of voice actors and a state investor behind us. If you had told us that in 2013, we would never have believed you. I&#8217;d like to encourage my fellow independent creators out there to live that independent spirit. Follow your creative heart and do what is necessary to bring your creations into reality. Don&#8217;t let the pursuit of fame or money cloud your vision. Don&#8217;t let anything hinder your creativity. In the immortal words of Shia LaBeouf &#8220;Just do it!&#8221; You never know where your journey will take you.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello again Celflux fans.</p>
<p>We have some really great news to share about our Celflux short film project. A while ago there was an open call for <a href="http://www.filmtt.co.tt/film-tt/projects/recent-projects/call-for-film-marketing-and-development-grants" target="_blank" rel="noopener">small marketing and development grants</a> by FilmTT and CreativeTT here in Trinidad and Tobago. We decided to take a leap of faith and make a submission for the grant. Our leap of faith paid off. <span id="more-1925"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://filmtt.co.tt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-3438 size-full" src="https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FilmTT_2018_logo_Black.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="652" srcset="https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FilmTT_2018_logo_Black.jpg 800w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FilmTT_2018_logo_Black-300x245.jpg 300w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FilmTT_2018_logo_Black-768x626.jpg 768w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FilmTT_2018_logo_Black-600x489.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></a>The Trinidad &amp; Tobago Film Company Limited (<a href="http://www.filmtt.co.tt/film-tt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FilmTT</a>) is a state agency established in 2006 to facilitate the development of the film industry in Trinidad and Tobago. As a subsidiary of the Trinidad and Tobago Creative Industries Company Limited (<a href="http://www.creativett.co.tt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CreativeTT</a>), FilmTT provides logistical support and film commission services such as location scouting and research and acts as a liaison with industry partners, the community, production houses and Government agencies. We submitted a proposal for our Celflux project. On May 12th we received an email from Ms Nneka Luke, the General Manager of FilmTT, informing us that our proposal had been accepted. We are happy to announce that the Celflux project was selected to receive a grant towards its marketing and development. We are extremely grateful and humbled by this and we would like to thank Ms Nneka Luke, Ms Raycy Rousseau, Ms Maya Cozier and the rest of the FilmTT team for the confidence they have shown in the Celflux project by awarding us this grant.</p>
<p>We are humbled to be among some of the most talented veterans in the Trinidad and Tobago film industry and realise that this affords us a great opportunity to take our Celflux project to the next level. I want to also thank the Celflux team of voice actors and the musical score composer for the encouragement they have given us and for the work they have put into this project. We could not have done it without them. We also want to single out Tony Black, who is the voice of Raymond, as he was the one who first suggested that we take Celflux further than we initially planned. Thank you for looking out.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings Celflux fans. </p>
<p>One of the first things we wanted to do when we began production on the <a href="http://celflux.com/celflux-animated-short-film/" target="_blank">Celflux Animated Short</a>, was to create a trailer to help spread the word and give our fans a glimpse of what they can expect. We&#8217;re happy to let you guys know that today we are releasing our very first trailer for Celflux Reluctant Heroes The Secret Weapon. <span id="more-1922"></span></p>
<p>It features the amazing voice work of Demetria Bridges, Matthew Curtis, Manuel Benavidez, Chasity Conner, Sarah Brown, Tony Black, Kate Sample, Tracy Pfau, Hector Chavez, William Harmar, Stephen Jared, and George Sharperson. It also features a fantastic original bit of music composed by Gwenaël Mario Grisi. All the artwork, animation, video and sound editing was done in-house by me. It was a lot of hard work and involved many all nighters but I had the encouragement of Dixie Ann and the members of the Celflux film team. So let us know what you think of the trailer. Does it get you excited to see the Celflux Animated Short? Is this something you would watch?</p>
<p>Special thanks to the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CreativeTT/" target="_blank">Trinidad &#038; Tobago Creative Industries Company Limited</a>: <a href="http://www.creative.co.tt/" target="_blank">http://www.creative.co.tt/</a></p>
<p>As usual, if you think it&#8217;s cool please help spread the word and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to keep up to date with the film&#8217;s production and development. Be sure to like and share.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Celflux/" target="_blank">Celflux</a> fans.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re very excited because today we have a really cool treat for you guys. Today is the day we release our first teaser trailer for the upcoming <a href="http://celflux.com/celflux-animated-short-film/" target="_blank">Celflux Animated Short</a>. Today is the day you, our fans, get to have a first look at what we&#8217;re working on and it gives you just a glimpse of what is to come. This teaser features our villains The Keepers. The voice you will hear is that of the awesomely talented <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=551546728" target="_blank">Sarah Brown</a>. One of our amazing voice actors who portrays the voice of Genocyde. It also features the original music by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/gwenael.grisi" target="_blank">Gwenaël Mario Grisi</a>. The Celflux Animated Short is a lot of hard work and a monumental task. It is the biggest project we have ever embarked upon. But we&#8217;re fueled by our love for <a href="https://www.facebook.com/OkiraAbousson/" target="_blank">Okira</a> her story and our desire to share it with our fans. As we said this is our first trailer and it&#8217;s just a teaser. Our main trailer is still to come. So, for now, we hope you enjoy it. We hope it whets your appetite and gets you excited about seeing the short film. If it does, please consider supporting us with a like and a share and help us get the word out. We can&#8217;t do it without our fans.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have what we consider to be some really good news to share with our fans today. As we&#8217;ve recently announced, we have ten extremely talented voice artists and actors who have come on board to be a part of the <a href="http://celflux.com/celflux-animated-short-film/" target="_blank">Celflux Animated Short film</a>. We are happy today to announce that we will also have a professional, classically trained musician creating the musical score for Celflux. <span id="more-1801"></span></p>
<p>As you guys know for our recently completed trailer I did everything. This includes the music. I can play music by ear so I just created something that I was hearing in my head and that I thought sounded good. I cannot read or write music and I am by no means a professional. So the music for the trailer left a lot to be desired. You can have another look at the trailer here:</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QAY8jzYW2xc?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>I had planned to do the same for the Celflux animated short and hope for the best. However, Matthew Curtis (The voice of the High Councilor), on his own initiative, shared the Celflux project with a friend of his. This friend was a classicly trained musician who, according to him, fell in love with the project and expressed an interest in coming on board. </p>
<p><a href="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gwenael-Mario-Grisi.jpg"><img decoding="async" src="http://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gwenael-Mario-Grisi.jpg" alt="Gwenael Mario Grisi" width="579" height="850" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1802" data-wp-pid="1802" srcset="https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gwenael-Mario-Grisi.jpg 579w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gwenael-Mario-Grisi-204x300.jpg 204w, https://celflux.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gwenael-Mario-Grisi-300x440.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 579px) 100vw, 579px" /></a></p>
<p>His name is Gwenael Mario Grisi and he started playing the piano at the age of six. He&#8217;s studied composition at the Conservatory in Belgium and graduated with three (3) master&#8217;s degrees. He&#8217;s also studied film editing with the purpose of learning how to better use music to tell stories. As with our amazingly talented voice cast, we are overwhelmed by how lucky we are to have such a talented and professional individual as part of the Celflux team. We would again like to acknowledge Matt&#8217;s role in making this happen. Mario had this to say about the Celflux project.</p>
<blockquote><p>Your story is very touching and I&#8217;m still completely down for this project.<br />
Your art is absolutely amazing, it gives me a lot of good vibes and I&#8217;m really happy I can help you for the music. It reminds me some old animated movies I was watching when I was younger, I&#8217;m in love with this project!</p></blockquote>
<p>Here&#8217;s a sample of Mario&#8217;s work performed by the Brussels Phil Harmonic. </p>

<p>I always say when we first started working on Celflux we did not have any distinctive plans. We just wanted to do something as the fulfillment of a lifelong dream. We never imagined that Celflux would grow into what it has become and seems poised to become. Thank you to all our fans and those who have given of their time and energy to make it happen.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The longer I live the more I learn that the future is so unpredictable. Many times this can have a negative connotation. Sometimes, however, the future surprises us with something really positive and encouraging. <a href="http://www.animaecaribe.com/" target="_blank">Animae Caribe</a>’s Animation and Digital Media Festival is the Caribbean’s biggest and most prestigious animation festival, providing a platform for the development of animators, as well as the exposure of animation as a viable business. I first heard about Animae Caribe in or around 2004. It seems like a lifetime ago. At that time I didn&#8217;t have the skill, know-how or means to even consider being a part of it. It is really cool to be able to announce that <a href="http://celflux.com" target="_blank">Celflux</a> will be featured at Animae Caribe 2016.<span id="more-1684"></span></p>

<p>When Dixie Ann and I began this Celflux journey in 2013, we had no idea where the road would take us. We just ventured out in the spirit of enjoyment and experience. We didn&#8217;t have a specific plan or goal other than to finish our book and share it with the world. Our motivation has never been and will never be the pursuit of fame and fortune. We&#8217;re not here to &#8220;make a name&#8221; or &#8220;change the game&#8221; as we hear a few folks saying. We&#8217;re just along for the ride to see where the journey takes us. That&#8217;s why everything that happens along this road, is a huge deal for us. So far we&#8217;ve had some really memorable and wonderful experiences and have been blessed to meet quite a few awesome and outstanding individuals from all over the world. All because we published our own comic with our original character Okira. Furthermore, the journey keeps getting more and more interesting. </p>
<p>One of the outstanding individuals that we&#8217;ve had the pleasure of meeting is <a href="http://www.animaecaribe.com/directors-remarks/" target="_blank">Ms. Camille Selvon Abrahams</a>. Ms. Selvon Abrahams is the CEO and founder of <a href="http://www.fullcircleanimation.com/" target="_blank">Full Circle Animation Studio</a> and the Creative Director of the Animae Caribe Animation Festival. She extended an invitation to us to be special guests at Animae Caribe 2016. To explain how this came about, I need to tell a story. </p>

<p>As many Celflux fans know, I&#8217;m a child of the 80s and grew up on Saturday morning 80s cartoons. I have always loved traditional animation, in particular, the action cartoons of the 80s and 90s. Most notably among them were Thundercats, Gi Joe, Transformers, and Visionaries: Knights of The Magical Light. So you can understand that I&#8217;ve always had in my mind the desire to one day see the characters of Celflux in an animated format. When we were planning the second trailer for the release of Celflux issue no. 3, I made the decision to do something in the style of an 80s cartoon intro. I shared a sneak peek of that trailer on Facebook and Ms. Selvon Abrahams saw it and liked it. A huge deal for us, given the fact that she has years of experience in the animation industry. Ms. Selvon Abrahams then graciously extended to us an invitation to be featured guests at this years Animae Caribe Festival.</p>

<p>We cannot really express how much this opportunity means to us. It is a priceless opportunity for two key reasons. Firstly, we have the outstanding privilege of being among some of the most talented, qualified and experienced individuals in the creative industry and secondly, it gives us a powerful platform from which we can share the story of Okira and Celflux. We&#8217;re really looking forward to this event, the amazing people we will meet and connect with, and the great experiences we will have. Also, who knows where the next stage of the journey will lead? So if you can make it, come visit us at Animae Caribe 2016. We would love to meet you.</p>
