Though FableVision has been creating meaningful content for nineteen years, the project we’re currently working on truly ranks as one of our most rewarding to date. We are honored to be working with the Make-A-Wish Foundation on fulfilling Neshama Ryman’s wish of directing an animated short film.
Neshama is absolutely amazing and the vision for her short film stems from a very personal place. In the Ryman household, accidents, messes, and unforeseen instances of chaos are always attributed to fictional creatures created by Neshama called the Klumz. Considering all that Neshama and her family has endured in the wake of her cancer diagnosis, the analogy of the Klumz is not lost on us.
Make-A-Wish has been part of the global dialog of “do-gooders” for decades and the New York chapter chose to highlight Neshama’s wish at Macy’s in the Bronx for National Believe Day. At the event, they debuted an exclusive “making of” video that captures the beautiful Neshama/FableVision collaboration so far.
To echo Macy’s sentiments – we, too, believe in the magic of giving. You can donate to Make-A-Wish here. We can’t wait to show you the whole film, which will be completed in 2016 – stay tuned! Here are some photos we snapped at the event.
Update: Here’s the full film, which came out in 2016. Enjoy!
