In less than four days, the project of a new Dungeons & Dragons serieshas raised $ 6 million. A unique record for such production on Kickstarter.
Fans of this legendary RPG burn with impatience until they ignite the kitty of the new series on Kickstarter. With a goal set at $ 750,000 by April 18 , the project has raged to raise more than $ 6 million in four days. A record on Kickstarter for an audiovisual production whose launch is expected by 2020.
"The Legend of Vox Machina"
Entitled " The Legend of Vox Machina ", this new production will take the form of an animated series with 22-minute episodes available each week. Much more than just a series, " a dream " that took four years to come to fruition and is eagerly awaited, as Matthew Mercer, the "Game Master" of the project, states.It is in the world of Exandria that will take place the first two episodes of the series, recounting the adventures of seven members of the Vox Machina during their first mission. The next two episodes will take place in the kingdom of Briarwoods where members of the Vox Machina will avenge the murder of the rulers and their families.
A series produced with great pomp
Far from an amateur production, the project will be supported by Titmouse studio, which has worked on the Star Wars series : Galaxy of Adventuresand Big Mouth , which earned him an Emmy Award nomination. In addition to this cutting-edge production are the talents of Jennifer Muro, who provided the screenplay for Star Wars Forces of Destiny .The series will be launched in 2020 without specifying the platform on which it will be distributed. As a reminder, the production of Mystery Science Theater 3000, which had raised $ 5.76 million on Kickstarter (the second-biggest record for a production) had been bought by Netflix. While the project has just raised $ 6 million in four days over its 46-day campaign, it is certain that a titanic fight will break out as to who will hand out the series first.
