Ask Me Anything ~ Special Guest Edition Hi Reddit, Mike McMahan, Joe Chandler and Giancarlo Volpe of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+ here. Ask Us Anything!

Hi reddit, I’m Mike McMahan, co-creator and executive producer of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+! (It’s weird to put an exclamation point after a + but here we are.) This is a great season: an epic quest with mighty characters from Sega’s Golden Axe games. And it's funny! Previously, I was the creator/showrunner and executive producer of Star Trek: Lower Decks, co-creator and co-showrunner of Solar Opposites, and once upon a time I was a writer/ showrunner on Rick & Morty. My career started off as a production assistant at Drawn Together and at South Park. I’m down to talk about Golden Axe and all this nerdy stuff, so AMA!

Hey Reddit! I'm Joe Chandler. I'm the co-creator and showrunner of the new series Golden Axe based on the SEGA Genesis game. Growing up a SEGA kid, working on this show has been a dream come true. Before Golden Axe, I worked on over 200 episodes of American Dad in various roles including writer, producer, and executive producer. Ask me anything!

Hello reddit! I’m Giancarlo Volpe and I’m the Supervising Producer / Director of Golden Axe on Paramount+! Previously I’ve was a director on Avatar the Last Airbender, Star Wars the Clone Wars, and Star Vs The Forces of Evil.  I’ve also produced/ supervised/ and/or Executive Produced lots of other shows, including The Boys Diabolical, Green Lantern the Animated Series and The Dragon Prince. Basically I’ve made a lot of animation, and I’m excited to talk about Golden Axe or anything else! Ask away!

We’ll be back tomorrow at 12pm ET/9am PT to answer any of your questions!!

Hey All,

We're back again to Reddit because this is the final week of our Kickstarter! We self funded 8 episodes and now we're Kickstarting the next 8 episodes for Season 2. We're currently 36% funded so far with 8 days to go, it ends Oct. 25th.

We've learned a ton about crowdfunding and Kickstarter through out this entire process. We've seen where we succeeded and we've learned where we need to improve in pre-prep, rewards, and more. With the urgency of the final week, we're coming back here to let everyone know about Catus Magus and Studio Ursa again! We're posting the full episode for the finale of Season 1 for people to check out.

We have no Hollywood budget, we will never use AI, and we believe in supporting the artists who make these beautiful stories. We need your support if you'll lend it. If you look at our work and believe in it and/or if it brings you joy consider throwing down to help us build the kind of studio and make the kind of stories we all would love to see more of.

Enjoy, support us, or spread the word if you believe in our work. We appreciate this community and all the kind words and support from our previous posts. Thank you again and help us make this happen!

I wanna get out of my comfort zone and start doing fbf, although this isn't rly my first time since I've done a few simple ones like simple walking or eye blinking. But I tried doing head movements! And it looks good, yes it might need improvement here and there but so far it's good

Beginner Sprite animation update- Did I improve the attack animation?

Thumbnail

37 Upvotes

Working on the player characters attack animations, the old version of the basic forward attack was really stiff and awkward so it needed work-

Note this is a hollow knight inspired metroidvania with robot performer themes so the more pretty backflips or spins the better 😂

Took some of the feedback from my last post and applied it to a new version! I think it’s much better, and I think it will look even better in the game but even if it isn’t perfect I have to move on to the other animations 😂

However if there are critiques I’d be happy to hear them so that if I come back to improve this again I’d have groundwork to go on.

Question How to Develop a Rotoscope Animation

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

I run the Wadsworth Filmmakers Club in Wadsworth, Ohio and I'm in need of some advice and guidance.

I have a basic understanding of 2D animation, and I'm wondering how difficult it would be to develop a minute long trailer for a GoFundMe or a Kickstarter? How much work would it require if rotoscoping was the main method of animating? The goal was to film a bunch of random shots in live action and add the details and specifics in the animating process, but I came to discover me and my club don't have enough animation experience to confidently move forward.

I need as much information as possible. It could be the beginning of our new project. Thank you all for your help!
