ZAFARI is an international 3D animated children’s television series created by David Dozoretz and distributed by NBCUniversal.
Set in a valley at the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, the series follows Zoomba, a baby elephant with zebra stripes, and his sidekick, Quincy, as they laugh, learn, grow and most importantly, celebrate that which makes us each unique.
I cut 52 x 11′ episodes for this television series between 2016 & 2018, while working at Saturday Animation Studio.
Here are two episodes, S01EP01 Sore Winners & S01EP02 Tree for Two.
I spent nearly two years working on the show, and I got the chance to talk about the editing work I had done in this Behind the scenes video.
