The final pitch
Meet the team
We are Tabi Karaba and Lydia Mugure, two kids from Kenya who love writing and developing fun stories! We met at Kenyatta University studying Film and Theatre arts where we grew as friends. Tabi ventured towards filmmaking focusing more on creative direction editing and cinematography causing her to be the story and direction lead in Kawia's adventure going as far as editing, choreographing, scripting, production and blocking all of the scenes in the project. Lydia, found herself drawn to animation and programming shifting her plans towards that, studying character modeling and rigging, animation, scene and environment design and coding, in Kawia's adventure she handled the development of the animation, models, concept, scenes and even the music! WE BUILT IT ALL OURSELVES DARLING!
