Welcome to our site!  We are working hard to bring lots of animation goodness to the world today.  I would like to share our development work behind the scenes of one of our projects.  "Feathertop"  which would be an animated feature movie for distribution.   "Feathertop" is a remake of the short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne, in which a scarecrow comes to life, and goes on a quest to win the heart of Polly, his love to be, in his adventure he learns about humanity.  It is a dark romantic animation that our Master Artist Pierre De Celles (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_DeCelles) has been cooking up for some time and we would like to share with you the behind the scenes development.

Feathertop takes place in Colonial America, during the 17th century.  We did a lot of research and development, to bring back the look and feeling of an developing America atmosphere.  You will see colonial militia, red coats and the frontier all brought together by the magic of animation.  You can see more at our website www.crashdownstudio.com/feathertop-movie
