Vegtoons Seeks Startup Funds on Kickstarter

Vegtoons, a new animated series from producer Greg Singer, is looking for funding on Kickstarter to jumpstart its 10-episode animated series, which has already been written and recorded, and has premiered a teaser clip. The campaign aims to raise $16,000 by September 1 to complete the animation, which will be executed by Tom Moore of Cartoon Saloon, whose previous animated feature The Secret of Kells was nominated for an Academy Award in 2010. Singer notes that instead of being aimed at children, the target audience for Vegtoons consists of older omnivores. “The intent is to open the door to a deeper conversation in our society, one that is respectful in articulating the values of vegetarianism,” says Singer in the campaign’s video.
