Update:
One of the people I am talking to tells me that there is a Ai program that can take our 2D artwork and extrapolate the information needed to turn it into 3D.
It's important to me that we maintain the aesthetic style of the artwork, to keep the watercolor textures. I'm hoping we can do that with animation programs. I would be very happy if we can have a 3D file for each of the characters. Further, if we could initiate action of those files, that would be optimal for creating our animations

Here are a few screen shots from Poser.
The main objective right now is learning how to switch the figure
from a naked woman into our Gnomic watercolors.
It's a question of creating skins.
There has been some discussion of using AI to achieve that,
but that is in the early stages of thinking animation through.
Once we achieve that, we can create animated action with our characters.
From there it should not be too difficult to place them into our backgrounds.
But, of course, we will need to animate the backgrounds as well.
I would be interested in discussing this objective with anyone
who knows how to create skins or work with Poser.
Right now, it is Poser, but is has been suggested the we use Blender.
Either way this is our next objective.
Once the Illustrated Storybooks are in production and being distributed,
we will be focusing on Animation.
As with everything else, I am open to discussing business opportunities,
but in the absence of any viable proposals
we will proceed in-house.
As far as animation goes,
my interest is animating the illustrations for the e-Storybook.
The Stage play will be produced by Image of the Mind Studios
as the principle through
The Elder Gnomes Joint Venture
Board positions in the Elder Gnomes are available,
but there is a substantial buy-in.
There will likely be a Limited Partnership established.
with the Elder Gnome Joint Venture partnering with
The Gnomes of New Hope Productions
and other Production companies.
A feature film or television series is another matter,
which will be jobbed out and supervised by the Elder Gnomes Joint Venture,
Cinema may be part of The Gnomes of New Hope Productions.
