Here you will find an archive of old news stories from our site, plus any other items that have been moved from the main pages.

In time this archive will form a full record of the production of The Legend of Kawa the Blacksmith.

23rd February 2008


	A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME We are very pleased to present a short clip of animation from the forthcoming animated film The Legend of Kawa the Blacksmith. This is a low-quality clip with reduced image and sound quality simply to give you all an idea of what the finished film will be like. This clip can now be found on the Kawa Film Gallery page. We hope to be able to show you some more exclusive clips over the coming months, so be sure to pop back to this site regularly.



	FILM REPORT The soundtracks for both Kurdish and English versions of The Legend of Kawa the Blacksmith are now fully completed, with all the actors’ dialogue, specially written music and sound effects all in place and in stereo. Each version of the film comes in at just over fifty minutes in length, which is more or less as we expected. Each of the actors’ lines were individually recorded and then edited, noise reduced and given appropriate acoustics for the locations in the film (such as an echo on the castle) before being assembled, one by one, into scenes with stereo sound effects and music, where appropriate.



	LATEST SITE UPDATE New to the site this week are some new profiles of our actors, the exclusive clip that you can find at the top of this page and also some new images in our gallery pages. We hope you enjoy them and come back soon for more.



	We are planning other new features which will hopefully appear very soon as work on the film progresses. If you could like to contact us with comments or suggestions then we would love to hear from you, either in English or in Kurdish. Please get in touch at kawa@splash-animations.com.

WEBSITE LAUNCH

Welcome to the Splash-Animations website, which is dedicated to charting the development of our first feature-length animated film The Legend of Kawa the Blacksmith. This is being developed in association with the Goodwin Development Trust.

Over the coming months, we hope to expand these pages with more news, more information and more images, not to mention new features such as clips from the film, a newsletter and your comments about what we are doing.

Over the next few days, you can expect a full report on the auditions that are being held at the Octagon in Hull on 17th November (see below).

Your comments and questions (in English or Kurdish) are always welcome on the site. Please contact us at:

kawa@splash-animations.com

We will always try to respond to your emails wherever possible.


	OPEN AUDITIONS FOR THE LEGEND OF KAWA THE BLACKSMITH




	Open auditions for all the speaking parts in our film version of The Legend of Kawa the Blacksmith are being held on 17th October at the Octagon on Walker Street in Hull. The doors open at 11am. We are looking for both Kurdish and English speaking adults to provide the voices for the characters in the film. You don’t have to look like the character to be able to provide the voice, and you don’t have to be a professional actor, as we are happy to award parts to keen and talented amateur actors. Come along and read for us. You might just be lucky.
