Jazz Man [ANIMATED PILOT]
Project Overview
Jazz Man is a show about coming into maturity, and learning about all life has to offer through the universal language of music! Created by Alex Weaver and produced by Nick Mahoney, Jazz Man is currently a non-profit indie pilot with the intention for future episodes and seasons.
Our story stars Dana Taylor, a newly young adult lost in a world where live music creates magic. After a series of events they’re taken under the wing of a humble yet wise, music-loving saxophone player-Jasper Katz! Alongside him is his band and main crew, pianist Jet Bedford, drummer Rudy Tuesday, and upright bassist Hoagie "Big Mac" Waterson. As Dana grows and learns as a musician, they also come to find that the lessons they learn can apply just as much to adult life as it can to music. This is an episodic series with character arcs and fantastical worldbuilding.
At this time we have a complete script and half our storyboard complete. We are working on revisions and will soon be assigning shots for animators. The roles we have listed are our most desired ones, but we are looking for others. Please see our interest form or join our Discord for more information.
