Welcome to our weekly self-promotion thread, where I encourage you to share your indie animated projects that you've made and worked on this week.

Maybe you've just released a new episode, or you're launching a Kickstarter* to fund your big project. Or maybe you've got some behind-the-scenes work you'd like to show off.

See you in the comments!

*If you share a Kickstarter or any other link, please make sure it's the full link, not a shortened one (for example, bit•ly or kck•st) because Reddit automatically filters those.

Link to the pilot episode

I haven't seen nearly enough people talk about this show, so I'm making this post to draw more attention to it. Been following this project for a while now, and now that's it finally come to fruition I'm happy to say that this first episode is extremely effective at presenting its characters and general premise while keeping you engaged at all times... It's a fun mix of Backrooms-esque/liminal space ideas, supernatural/psychological horror and casual college vibes, animation is really stellar, feels like the building itself is constantly changing shape, morphing in and out of different states, and there's some cool stop motion stuff in there as well...

Please please please go support this and tell as many people about it as possible, because I absolutely believe this deserves to be the next big thing (or at the very least that it should be expanded into a full blown show)

Discussion AMA with Heather Parra, creator of Talon and the Champions of Saurithia

4 Upvotes

Hi, my name is Heather Parra and I am the creator of indie animated series Talon and the Champions of Saurithia.

We're currently in our final 3 days of our Kickstarter to raise funds for our 2nd episode. Since we're in the finale of our campaign, I wanted to come on here to answer any questions about our next episode.

If you enjoy dinosaur content, sci-fi/fantasy, or indie animation (!), please considering backing us here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/worldoftalon/talon-and-the-champions-of-saurithia-episode-2

Talon and the Champions of Saurithia is a sci-fi/ fantasy indie animated epic series set in the late Cretaceous period, following Talon, a courageous young Dakotaraptor born with magical elemental powers she at first didn’t understand. Alongside her friend Kota, Talon must find the eight other dinosaur Champions - embarking on a journey that will transform the prehistoric world and save the universe from a dark fate.

Now, onto the questions. Ask away!

I Made This! Spaceship vs. Spacesheep: A Typo That Became an Animation!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

It all started when I tried to write Spaceship. Since English isn't my native language, I thought Spacesheep was how you spelled it. 😂 That little discovery made me smile, and then an idea hit me that completely changed the direction of the short film I had in mind.

And that's how this little sheep was born… along with its rather controversial destiny! A real plot twist. Here's the result: a short 2D cartoon animation, entirely drawn and animated in Arttista, my indie drawing and animation software.

One thing I'm still not entirely sure about: maybe there are a few too many pauses between the characters' reactions at the beginning. Or maybe that's just my perception after animating and watching the same scenes over and over again!

I hope you enjoy it!

Two sisters walk into a bar... is our UNOFFICIAL, NON-PROFIT, UNFINISHED fan film! Though this project had stopped down before, we decided to release what we had. It felt wrong to deny the community what we had started.

This passion project was only possible thanks to the hard work, talent, and creativity of many friends who came together to pour their efforts in for so many months! We all love the show and wanted to give something back to the community by creating something from the bottom of our hearts. Thanks to Fortiche for crafting such a beautiful show that has inspired us.

Super grateful to be able to collaborate with these amazing artists who are just as passionate about maintaining human craft - NO AI was used. Hope you can enjoy and be sure to check out the film on YouTube as well for 4K goodness.

Discussion Since it’s finally out, how did you feel about Jack and Kor’s Plastic Crunch Pilot?

I thought it was pretty good, there were some flaws like the pacing and such, but I think the characters and the world that they live in are very unique. And I think the humour is pretty funny and charming. And some of the musical sections are pretty catchy. And the animation is really smooth. I would give it a 8/10

Discussion Question: Can indie Studios make Reboots of Old shows

0 Upvotes

For instance if I wanted to make a reboot of a show of Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, could having an indie studio help make it or will lead to a large amount of copyright getting the project shut down, how would I play my cards right to make an indie reboot?

New Teaser I've been working on a Minecraft indie-series called Death Craft.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Death Craft actually started back in 2019 as a comic book I created and drew with my friends. After years of developing, rewriting, and expanding the story, I decided to bring it to life as a full 3D animated series, made entirely in Mine-imator under Cogwheel Dourado Entertainment.

The series revolves around four friends who go on adventures in Minecraft and accidentally discover things they were never meant to know.

I'm currently working on the series, and I'd love to share a little preview of its visual style with the Minecraft community!

I'd really appreciate your feedback on the composition, character presentation, and overall atmosphere. I'm always looking for ways to improve my work, so constructive criticism is very welcome!

I've also released an official teaser, which you can check out on YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok if you'd like to see more of the project!

What do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts! 👀
