First Look – Work in Progress on an Animated TV Episodic created in Unreal Engine with BRON Studios.

“BRON announced today that Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker, Thomasin McKenzie, Vera Farmiga, Richard E. Grant, Wilmer Valderrama, Alanna Masterson and Courtney Rosemont, in her debut, are lending their voices to Gossamer, an upcoming 8 x half-hour animated “movie-series” from BRON Digital (a division of BRON Media Corp).

Gossamer is based on the young adult novel by critically acclaimed author Lois Lowry (The Giver, The Willoughbys). Written by Crystal Meers and directed by Azazel Jacobs and Heidi Bivens, the series takes children and adults on a fantastic journey through the world of dreams and nightmares.” By Animation Magazine June 14, 2022
