<div>Hello friends, family, and fellow art enthusiasts,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m Brook Preston, an independent animator devoted to bringing stories to life through motion and creativity. The animation industry has changed dramatically with the rise of AI tools—making much of my formal training outdated. Rather than give up, I’ve chosen to embrace this new frontier by retraining, learning advanced techniques, and working to build my own in-house animation studio from the ground up.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support through this GoFundMe means the world to me. Every contribution—no matter the size—will directly help cover:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>* Annual animation software subscriptions (around $300)
</div>
<div>* A much-needed computer upgrade to handle modern 
</div>
<div>   production tools
</div>
<div>* Basic living costs during this transition period
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our family has faced several medical challenges in recent years, and your kindness would help turn the page toward brighter, more stable days. Each donation brings me one step closer to creating professional-quality AI-animated projects—pieces that typically cost around $500 for a 30-second segment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity doesn’t just support me—it helps keep independent art  alive in an industry that’s rapidly transforming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in creativity, resilience, and the power of storytelling.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With deep gratitude,
</div>
<div>Brook Preston
