British animator turns to crowdfunding to make first colour enhanced extended film – why not be a part of it?
The lovable and mischievous Simon’s Cat first appeared online in the animated film ‘Cat Man Do’, which was a viral smash-hit on YouTube in 2008. Now boasting over half a billion views and 3 million subscribers, Simon’s Cat is the #1 UK animation channel on YouTube.
The Simon’s Cat animation studio is looking to fund a special extended-length, colour episode called “Off To The Vet”, based on the chaos that erupts on the day of a veterinarian appointment. For this they have adopted the Indiegogo crowd-funding platform. The campaign ends in 4days with £75,000 more still to raise.
Simon’s Cat creator Simon Tofield of Leighton Buzzard explains “In the messages we receive from fans, a film about preparing for and visiting the vet is definitely the most common request. It’s a deep subject to explore, rich with the potential of loads of humour which is why we feel we’d like to make this our first broadcast length episode in colour! I am so grateful to our fans for their wonderful support!”
