"What is Classic"?: Classic is one of Viv's old projects, and was supposed to pay homage to some of her favorite films. It was a classical musical featuring anthropomorphic animals as the cast, so it would appeal to ZooPhobia fans. It was supposed to be more professional, unlike Hazbin, which was her other main project at the time, and the first two main characters were already cast by Broadway performers. However, the project got scrapped, due to people canceling their Patreon subscriptions, which affected the Kickstarter for Classic poorly, and caused Viv to lose any funding she got from the fans supporting her. Plot: Classic is the story of Betsy, a determined, passionate, aspiring filmmaker, who sets out to make the film she's always dreamed of making. She enlists the help of her childhood friend, Frankie, a talented performer, who let the struggles of making it big discourage him from his dreams, as well as Calvin, an enthusiastic movie set friend, and a colorful cast of characters. Betsy helps Frankie remember why he loves doing what he does, and the two inspire each other and others, as they set out to make a film just for themselves. Message: This film is meant for creators, performers, and artists exploring the struggles that come with making your own work, getting yourself out there, and keeping hold of your focus and passion. A reminder to do what you love, to never give up, and to do things because you love to do them. Viv's words: "I want this to be a positive view on the entertainment industry, but an honest one, an homage to old school film, and genres that people still have passion for, which will be fittingly told in 2D animation!" Misc.: The film will have a jazzy, classical soundtrack with expressive energy, a relatable theme, and a positive message about working hard, and following your passions, even if you don't always succeed.
