Grandpa's Stamps (CalArts BFA2 Animated Film)

Grandpa's Stamps (CalArts BFA2 Animated Film)

Project Overview

Looking for voice actors for my 2nd year film (2:30 min.) at CalArts! It’s a narration-based film about grandpa showing his granddaughter his stamp collection. Themes of connecting to grandparents and exploring memories of the past.

Both characters are chinese but will speak English for the film. 

This is a student film, so it is an unpaid opportunity. Also good recording equipment is required. Thanks!
