Synopsis from the Filmmaker:

Once upon a time a guardian was chosen to watch over all living things. She was called the Magistical. Hoping to preserve all precious life, the Magistical created a spell. This spell granted the last of every type of creature immortality.

However, to one very evil Draken the spell would carry a very different meaning than intended. By killing all other Drakens she would become the last. Without fear of death, such a beast could rule the world. Now only one baby cub stands between her and her evil ambitions. And between them stands a small, but determined, obstacle named Foible.

Out of Our Minds Animation Studios is an independent studio that has been working on a full length feature called "The Magistical." It will be approximately 84 minutes long when it's completed, and will offer a nice alternative to the sometimes cookie-cutter animated features of larger studios.

Lead Animator Derek Cernak will describe the process of creating a film like this in an independent studio unattached to a big corporate entity. We'd like to thank Our of Our Minds for treating us to a sneak peek of "The Magistical." -SC
