'Hullabaloo': A Steampunk Animated Adventure Film

'Hullabaloo' is the story of Veronica Daring, a brilliant young scientist who returns home from an elite finishing school to find her father--the eccentric inventor Jonathan Daring--missing without a trace! The only clue left behind points Veronica toward Daring Adventures, an abandoned amusement park used by her father to test his fantastical steam-powered inventions. There she discovers a strange girl named Jules, a fellow inventor who agrees to help Veronica in locating her missing father and discovering the secrets of his work.

'Hullabaloo' is a 2D (hand-drawn) animated steampunk film that hopes to help preserve the dying art of 2D animation; and by supporting their Indiegogo project, you get to help save 2D animation from an untimely demise and help fund a full length 2D feature.

They also hope the film will encourage girls to explore science and adventure. The film's two protagonists are both young women and both scientists who use their intellect, wits, and courage to fight greed and corruption. They hope that Veronica Daring and her friend Jules will serve as positive role models for girls of all ages and encourage them to get excited about science, engineering, and sci-fi.

Funding has already been met for this cool project, currently at $218k, 273% of their original $80k goal, and with the campaign set to end on October 1st, there's still plenty time to pledge your support and help fund the additional stretch goals. Stretch goals met so far is a new 'Hullabaloo' short; 'Curse of the Cheshire Cat' plus the opportunity to produce a full orchestra soundtrack for the short too. If they successfully get to the next stretch goal of $240k, then that will unlock a third 'Hullabaloo' short; 'The Mysterious Island'.
