SCI FI MOVIE TRAILER SPIRITUS - ANIMATION SABRINA PENA YOUNG. An orphan journeys to the dying exoplanet Spiritus to escape the truth about her parents.

Filmmaker, composer and author Sabrina Pena Young takes us on a fascinating journey while narrating through her past, present and future projects along with some insight into her process and an exclusive sneak peak at her next science fiction machinima opera 'Spiritus'.

There are many things that I don't do, and typically acting is one of them. However, I enjoy doing voice acting for animation. What's nice about voice acting is that you don't really have to look like anything in particular to play a voice, and since I was a kid I enjoyed coming up with weird and goofy voices. So as for being the lead actress in a film, yeah, never going to happen, but I do enjoy playing strange characters behind the scenes. 

So taking this week to work on my animated science fiction film Spiritus! I am using Moviestorm animation. Have been having some shadow issues this week, but that's okay. I have been using final cut pro and MOTION to add effects and do a tight edit.

Animated martial arts scene from Libertaria: The Virtual Opera. It’s the year 2139, and United States, decimated by nuclear war in the last half of the 21st century has splintered off into territorial factions. The sky has grown red, the water runs black, and hope rests on the shoulders of a young teen. Meet Libertaria, of unknown origin and unknown place. Left as an infant in the abandoned Lady Liberty Souvenir Shop in the year 2125, she spent her early years bouncing within the Factory. Aided by a woman known only as Nurse, Libertaria escapes Factory at the age of 14, traveling the bullet train from Nueva York, the capitol of the USSA, to New Miami in search of the one person that ever showed her kindness. A mysterious glowing medallion leads her to the Underground, a society of children led by the seemingly immortal Simeon. Hunted by the Apothetae Army Police, Simeon and his closest allies, Miguel, Lucy, and Gabe, attempt to protect the innocent and helpless from the Co...

The dark quality that comes with it is the cherry on top.” –FanboysAnonymous.com on Libertaria: The Virtual Opera  WHAT FANS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE LIBERTARIA CHRONICLES "Between the book, virtual opera, soundtrack, and all the extras, Young has created a convincing world...a da...

Using Technology to Create the Virtual Opera Libertaria Creating a full‐length opera in the 21 st century requires a composer’s ingenuity and ability to think outside the box and into cyberspace. What do crowdsourcing, machinima, virtual auditions, social networking, and a libretto have in common? Each is a key element in the production of Libertaria: The Virtual Opera , a feature‐ length sci‐fi animated opera created through online collaboration and cutting edge technology. For those who live outside the 21 st century digital world, terms like crowdsourcing, virtual, and machinima may seem like a foreign language out of a Ray Bradbury sci‐fi novel. Crowdsourcing involves assigning tasks for your project to the public at‐large. More than simply outsourced, a project that is crowdsourced can involve dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people contributing a small part to the creative whole. Typically one person acts as the “brain” of the project, co...

So have been working on #cinematography and Moviestorm using #FinalCut on my new Mac. I like the results a lot. This is just a test animation for a short that I want to try to finish about a #zombie with big dreams. It's just an exercise, but thought I would share. What do you think? There are a couple of mistakes (like rain indoors) that I need to fix, plus cutting back a couple of shots and replacing some of the music, but definitely think that I am learning a lot.
