Legends Animated is a proud 501c3 fiscal sponsor of Orange Blossom Studios as they create WHEELS & ROSES, a Sailor Moon meets Roller Derby coming-of-age series.
“In a whirlwind of magical mishaps and roller-skating mayhem, Sahara, a magic-less teenager, unwittingly finds herself thrust into the fantastical world of roller derby. Teaming up with a squad of quirky, spell-slinging roller derby girls, she embarks on a hilarious journey from zeroes to heroes, determined to conquer the derby scene and prove that even without magic, She’s got what it takes to win it all.”
Throughout the series, we'll see how each of our characters learns how to build meaningful relationships and explore who they are as individuals. While most of the show will take place in arenas where bouts (AKA games) will be held, we’d also like to show our characters’ lives, to get a better sense of their different lived experiences.
Orange Blossom's ultimate goal is to make a fully animated series with 22-minute episodes! We have received initial funding via Kickstarter for its pilot episode and depending on how much we fundraise, Orange Blossom may end up creating more episodes, an animated short film, and/or even a graphic novel! The more we fundraise, the more independent animation we can make! We hope you'll be a part of this journey to bring this story to life.
