Salman Arbaboon prepares ‘Prey’ crowdfunding Campaign

Iranian animator Salman Arbaboon prepares his philosophical, hand-drawn short Prey, and is seeking audience help via crowdfunding.

Prey, an intriguing, hand-drawn and highly symbolic film by Salman Arbaboon explores the limits of hunting and the hunter.In Prey, a constant trapping play between fish (a symbol of life and happiness in Persian culture) and an old fisherman (old people representing the society norms). Yet, the fisherman can also be himself a bait.

Hoorakhsh studios has produced a short animated film to test experimental techniques in 2D animations. Paper-animated Prey has almost finished pre-production, and 3 more months are needed to finish production and post production.

The film is written by Payam Parsafar and produced by Ashkan Rahgozar. An additional 3,000 euros are needed to hire the artists responsible for drawing colour and shadow levels (frame-by-frame), and complete the film in its allotted time.
