Anokye, the truth of
Destiny
30min episode. 6 part
series for TV
This is a short clip from the character design stage that took place 3 months ago in Achimota. It was a long process with little sleep, we missed the deadline got ill, but had lots and lots of fun!
Synopsis
The best magician in the land wants to
find out who he really is and a Prince wants to free his people from a
tyrannical overlord, but neither can achieve what they desire without the
other.
Together they embark on an adventure to
unite the clans of Akan, free them from the overlords of Denkyira and save the
sacred forests. Along the way our heroes learn valuable lessons in life. Anokye
hopes that each adventure will lead him closer to his true identity and Prince
Osei hopes to see his home land finally free.
Concept
ANOKYE is a (U) certificate, action adventure 2D
animation that introduces Ghana to its first TV African super hero. Our heroes battle to unite the clans
with each other and live in harmony with nature. A misunderstood magician
and a disillusioned Prince separately battle against fates destined by others,
but once they meet they use magic and wisdom to unite a people, defeat their
oppressors and save the sacred forest. The story is based on the
creation of the Asante Kingdom in 17th century Ghana. The theme and is expressed as:
‘Through unity,
strength of purpose and courage
we can change
ourselves and our world’
Tone
The story is an action adventure in the vein of Avatar, The last Air Bender animation. The
mythical gods, totems, symbols and architecture of 17th century Akan
will draw the audience into a rich world that has never been explored in
fiction. Anokye has themes and humour adults will enjoy without alienating
the children. The lively world of nature are allowed to have personalities that
are wise, mischievous and funny.
hmmm ... his sounds very interesting. This should really be a good one. I hope the holiday hustle and bustle doesn't prevent people from tuning in to the series in December.
