Original concept and characters by Daniel O'Sullivan and NightFlight Studio.

(See here the completed 2minutes teaser - HD Quality)

A possible featurette or miniseries, taking an ironic twist
on classic "hardboiled" detective fiction.
Harry Cain, a typical, down at heel Private investigator in the
alcohol soaked, smokey Los Angeles of the Truman years - and of much
detective fiction and cinema.

In his work Harry demonstrates a sharp investigative mind, meanwhile,
like many of his celebrated peers, he struggles to manage a decidely
?unbrilliant" private life, complicated by his innate tendency to
screw up and by his turbulent relationship with his dear, but all too
disapproving assistant, Miss Lana Doherty.

The project is a NightFlight-Rimlight exclusive production,
feature quality full animation, 2D and 3D CG, HD final format.
Tentative completion date about June2011,
designed as the demo episode
for a possible 26X6 min. TV mini series and/or a 30' TV Special.
For young adults.

Harry Cain est un des nombreux détectives privé qui vivent dans l'alcoolique et fumeuse ville de Los Angeles de Truman et de bon nombre d' œuvres littéraires et cinématographiques de gendre « noir »,
Comme beaucoup de ses confrères plus renommés, à coté d'une surprenante habilité professionnelle et d'une brillante capacité d'investigation il a une vie privée totalement bouleversée, grace à un talent tout particulier pour se compliquer la vie sentimentale ainsi que les relations personnelles.
Ce qui se voit très bien dans la tourmentée relation qu'il entretien avec sa fidèle, affectionnée mais aussi très correcte assistante, M.lle Lena Doherty.

Ce projet, qui s'adresse tant à un public de jeunes que d'adultes,
prévoit la réalisation d'un special
et/ou d'une courte série a technique mixte
et s'inspire ironiquement aux films « noir » des années '40 et '50.

2 minutes short film

"La Nuvola Olga" - Olga the Little Cloud - is the protagonist of a series of charming books created and drawn for small children by well known italian children's author and illustrator Nicoletta Costa.
Olga is actually... a cloud: a little girl-cloud, vivacious, curious, even a little mischievous,
she lives in a world where colour, play, poetry, imagination
blend with the magic innocence of infancy.
Little, simple stories that unfold literally suspended between heaven and earth,
together with other clouds, great and small, and a group of good friends like Pino the bird, Mr.Sun, Mrs. Moon, some children and many other characters
which she happens to meet from time to time.
Each story, always with the lightness of a cloud, charmingly describes a way to view reality, helping children in their first steps to discovering
their own capacity for imagination and fantasy.

The project is a NightFlight exclusive production,
3D and 2D CG animation, 1920X1080 HD final format
Final released in April 2009,
designed as the finished pilot episode
for a possible 54X2 min. TV show for little kids.

We are looking for possible co-production and investors.
