“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.”

Making animation takes a village and Wheels & Roses was no exception!!! What a roller coaster ride (in the best way) this journey has been so far. It's been amazingly challenging (I personally have learned sm), and so incredibly rewarding. Caring about a personal project this much almost feels scary, but having others along the journey who care just as much makes all the difference. From the production team to the voice actors, every. Single. Person. MATTERED.

Animation is made up of thousands (literal) decisions, and I feel so privelledged to be able to have made something from the heart with amazing people at Orange Blossom and NuBoom Studios.

this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together

and then in the end you put it together like this!!

and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy

Yes, for some reason I don't think they had any Rivercane baskets at this exhibit, the Vinita cultural center is a bit small so maybe that had to do with it? But traditionally Rivercane baskets look like this:
