<\/a><\/span><\/b><\/div>\nCreated by Christian Haynes, who I featured in December of 2021<\/a>, and produced by Imhapie<\/a>,\u00a0the production has now launched a Kickstarter<\/a>\u00a0(which runs until October 25th, 2024) to fund the development of the series pilot episode, as well as a full series, which is ready to produce.<\/p>\n Zack In Time is more than just another 2D animated series hoping to be successful, and is worth your consideration on two levels.<\/p>\n Not only does the series hope to tell a fun and authentic story, showcasing unique characters but also, behind the scenes, the producers hope it continues to be a launching pad for young artists’ careers.\u00a0<\/p>\n The story of Zack in Time reflects the struggle that we all feel at some point in our lives (but mostly in our teens) – awkward, out of place, isolated and maybe a little bit confused about who we are meant to be.\u00a0<\/p>\n Diversity and representation of minorities is greatly needed in animation today. By showcasing a lovable biracial character, the production hopes to take a step in celebrating the beautiful array of cultures that reflect the human experience.<\/p>\n Christian Haynes<\/b>, the creator of Zack In Time, wrote and directed the pilot episode and led a writing team to develop a full season of the series.<\/p>\n The Zack In Time pilot episode was developed as a proof of concept for an entire series by creating an artistic incubator for up-and-coming industry professionals.\u00a0<\/p>\n Paige Powell-Revis<\/b>, the Producer of the first episode of Zack In Time, and the founder of Imhapie LLC. has worked in various departments of the entertainment industry for 8 years, and now works full-time as a 3D artist and production manager at Monster City Studios.\u00a0<\/p>\n She continues to build studio operations for Imhapie and oversees new projects coming through the pipeline, with a crew that consists of 175+ creatives from countries all over the world, from a dozen time zone differences, language barriers and learning curves, all coming together through their unifying love of 2D animation!<\/p>\n Many of Imhapie’s crew members have gone on to intern or work at major studios like Nickelodeon<\/i>, Pixar<\/i>, DreamWorks <\/i>and many more.\u00a0<\/p>\n Producing more episodes of Zack In Time will help to nurture and expand Imhapie’s network, creating more opportunities for students to experience life-changing successes, by becoming industry professionals. <\/p>\n
