Rising Star and industry Veteran team up on Zoovolution Kid’s MMO
October 13, 2008
Veteran song writer and producer Keith Thomas ( Vanessa William's Colors of the Wind ) and rising Disney Radio star Savannah.
“Furtrade is a story (audiobook) that was written to make kids aware of what’s going on in Chinese fur farms,” explains WebandCircus CEO Todd Macadangdang. “Keith has graciously agreed to participate in the project by producing the title track on the audiobook, ‘Hope and Prayer’, with Savannah Outen. “Hopefully the song will make kids feel for these animals. We feel with the level of talent Keith and Savannah bring to the project, kids will really connect to the tune, and hopefully the core issue of the audiobook.”
When asked if the topic was too disturbing for kids, Todd replied “ It is a disturbing issue. Yes. But the audiobook, which Savannah narrates and sings on, bring the issue to kids in a way that is simple and clear, but emotionally engaging. The whole concept of Zoovolution is to make kids aware of some pretty heavy issues in a way that is age appropriate. “
As for the music, Keith Thomas contributed, “She sounds AMAZING on Hope & Prayer”. There is no doubt that the young star is on the rise. “Savannah has had two Red Carpet events in the past week in LA and we’re working 24/7 to make sure her first Disney Show is a success this weekend in New York “ , added Keith.
Furtrade is scheduled to be available when the Zoovolution Virtual world goes live with beta 1.5 in December.
