Synopsis
Sir Magnus and the Dragon tells the story of Sir Magnus Avoirdupois, a knight that is sent to save a village from a maiden-hungry dragon. Unfortunately, Sir Magnus is old, and would rather read than fight. Will he be able to slay the beast and save the village, or will his poor lady end up a widow?
Behind the Scenes
Based on the short story “The Up-To-Date Dragon” by Colorado-based author Rebecca Williams, Sir Magnus and the Dragon was adapted as a computer-animated short film by Colorado-based director/producer Zack Lawrence. Pre-production began in February 2010. Concept art was done by Joanna Coleman, and the film was cast and voices recorded in the Summer of 2010. Currently, the characters are being modeled by Austria-based animator Wolfgang Nilz.
