Wes Anderson is kicking off production of his next film with a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it teaser—and a chance for one lucky fan to be in the movie.

In a video announcing Isle of Dogs, his first stop-motion animated film since Fantastic Mr. Fox, Anderson teamed up with crowdfunding site Crowdrise to raise money for the Film Foundation, Martin Scorsese’s nonprofit that aims to protect and preserve film history. Donations will give you chances to win the top prizes, and the more money you donate the more chances you get. At the end of the fundraiser, winners will be drawn at random to win prizes, which include books and DVDs signed by Anderson. One lucky donor will win a trip for two to London, tour the production, and voice a dog in the film. (This may require barking, howling, and whimpering.)

You can see a teaser for yourself at the 1:16 mark.

Anderson also debuted the all-star cast for the film, which includes a mix of actors who regularly appear in Anderson films like Bill Murray, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Tilda Swinton, and Edward Norton; plus new faces like Bryan Cranston, Greta Gerwig, and Scarlett Johannson.

There’s no release date attached to Isle of Dogs, but a new film officially in the works is sure to excite Anderson fans.
