Bringing Jurni to Life: A New Animated Short Film in Partnership with BluBlu Studios
We are thrilled to announce a significant step forward for Jurni. In partnership with the acclaimed BluBlu Studios, we are launching a Kickstarter campaign to transform Jurni into an animated short film. We want to share this story to a wider audience around the world.
Jurni tells the story of an ambitious young girl who overcomes her deepest fears to win a competition, hoping to reunite with her mother. The book was initially created to help children, parents, teachers, and caregivers navigate the difficult conversations surrounding grief and loss. With the transition to an animated film, we aspire to offer this message of healing and resilience to an even broader audience.
BluBlu Studios, an award-winning animation company, is renowned for its exceptional storytelling and artistic prowess. Their recent success with "Porcelain War," which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, underscores their ability to create compelling and meaningful content. We are honored to collaborate with a studio that shares our vision and commitment to addressing significant societal issues through art.
The adaptation of Jurni into an animated film aligns perfectly with BluBlu Studios' mission of creating impactful educational content and promoting mental health awareness. Their dedication to crafting stories that inspire and educate makes them an ideal partner for this project.
Additionally, we are excited to share that our campaign has been featured in Motionographer, a leading source for animation industry news. You can read their article, Transforming Grief into Hope: Campaign Launches to Animate Beloved Children's Book Jurni, which highlights our journey and the significance of this project.
As we embark on this new chapter, we remain committed to our mission of helping children and families navigate the complexities of grief and loss. This animated film is just the beginning.
We invite you to join us on this journey. Your support can help us bring Jurni to life in a new and vibrant way. Together, we can create a world where stories like Jurni's offer comfort and hope to those who need it most.
