SHINZU
Project Overview
GREETINGS FRIENDS! TO PROJECT "SHINZU"!!!
[DISCLAIMER: This project utilizes ai for scene building, behind this project is a team that respects artist integrity and present this knowledge before the actor/actress submits any auditions.]
Shinzu started off a story created by myself using the OC's of my old animator buddies that originally started off as an RPG Game. Through the years I have refined the story and cleaned up the ARCS in hopes of one day making this a proper animation project!
THE STORY:Shinzu was once a single country, unified, but through much civil war and disputes. Ultimately resulting in a splitting of many regions that labeled themselves as North, East, West and South Shinzu. Despite this wars continued, for control, power, and martial might, in our current timeline the 4 kingdoms enjoy peace, they use this time to build their nations up and reproduce the lost populations, however, the greatest evil Shinzu has ever faced emerges, its up to Zxem Scarlotte, a young man with the weight of the world on his shoulders, to navigate through nobility, battle, and utter destruction.
