Brittney Galloway Animator, Storyteller, Driving Force
GB:Tell us a little about who you are?
B: My mission is start an animation studio with my sister, Crystal, and tell untold stories of under-represented people. To tell the stories of their gods, legends and victories. I want people to see the magic of many cultures through animation.The Sleepy Gallows Studio will make shorts, feature films, and shows so that children of color have heroes that they identify with. My art reflects how much magic is still on earth.
2) GB: What does being Giftedly Black mean to you?
B:Being Giftedly Black for me is realizing my gifts and making something either joyous, beautiful or both to release back into the world.It would be wonderful to see young black people view my work and feel they have a place in animation or filmmaking. My sister and I started our webseries with 2 laptops, no animation software, paper, pens, and a scanner. I use my art to uplift others and inspire their gifts.
3. GB: Social media handles for connects or reference?
B: My life goal is to make an animation studio and produce stories that often go untold. Hopefully that’s what the Sleepy Gallows will become. We want to stay in realm of whimsy and bring native American, African, African-American, and Indian (from India)mythology, legends, and triumphs to western film and animation in ways we haven’t seen before. I really love fairytales/mythology and legends that blur truth and fiction. I want to broaden what our ideas of a fairytale can be.
5) GB: What sets you apart and makes you unique as an artist?
B:My use of shapes and color are pretty unique to me . My senior year at California College of the Arts, I started doing paper cutout art. I did a stop motion with characters made of diamonds and patterned paper. That enabled my current art direction of patterns, shapes, and motion. I also love crafting, making cards,envelopes, and unique paper gifts.
6)GB :What is one thing that you desire most in your selected field?
B: In the field of animation I want to see more diversity (super cliche right?) I want more women and people of color, to write,direct, and produce their stories. I want more poc cast and depicted on tv. I want all types of stories, less romance and more platonic love. I want adults to feel like children. I want a lot and I hope to be a driving force in the change.
Chapter 4 is coming next week! The exact date is unsure atm, but it’s coming! Thanks for waiting! #psa #comingsoon #forPeaceLoveAndHarmony #plh #Harmony #fairy #fay #art #animation #youtube #webseries #cartoon #indie #orginalcontent #light #painting #sleepygallows
