The Worlds Within

A project where we gather the online deviant community in order to show our appreciation of Studio Ghibli over the years. We all love Studio Ghibli; that's why we're here! But just loving them isn't enough. Just making a group full of the same pictures over and over isn't enough. What we need is something to return to them, something we can offer as a tribute for Studio Ghibli to continue making our lives enjoyable. We need something to tie us all together, to make our voices heard all around the world. And that's why I'm introducing our Project: The Worlds Within.

On January 9th, I set out to pursue this dream, this hope that I could gather fellow deviants to make something to show just how much we love Studio Ghibli and their films. On January 9th, I made a group on deviantArt for this sole purpose. And I didn't stop.

I wrote a storyline, thought for a while, then scrapped it.

I made a second storyline, worked on it a bit, then scrapped it.

I just wasn't getting the community's help; I was doing everything and I know that didn't work. So I waited long months until I met one person that changed the course of this Project. He contributed immensely, he made me all excited again, he was the one to put the manga in its place. Then we started getting attention. I began writing the third draft of the Project: this one I liked. It wasn't centered on me, it wasn't centered on anyone. It was centered around the entire community, around Studio Ghibli.

This is Project TributeToAwesomeness.

A collection of deviants that want to express their love of Studio Ghibli. TributeToAwesomeness is now a proud group of 58 members and 90 watchers, with several regular contributors towards the things that we need the community to help us do. TributeToAwesomeness also boasts 3 completed pages of the manga of which it holds in high esteem, with a fourth rolling along.

As the founder of TributeToAwesomeness and an admin of studioghibli, I'm hoping that you all will help me and everyone else in this effort to - seriously - give a Tribute to Awesomeness.

Thank you all for your time,
