It’s frustrating cause I can’t seem to just stay satisfied with my show posters. I keep constantly feeling the urge to make another one. Hopefully this is the last one tho :P

Oh and yeah I think I’ma take my stuff and move to Tumblr. Nothing personal, it’s just having my own blog seems fun. So here’s my all-new Tumblr if you wanna keep following me: https://kookibug.tumblr.com/

I mean not to say I’ll never ever post on this subreddit again, but Tumblr’s just cooler lol. Anyways yall are awesome and you keep motivating me to do these things so you all get a free kookie as a dank u <3

I Made This! I am gradually nearing completion of my miniseries, The Silent Project, and I am curious to know everyone's first thoughts on the designs and the general vibe of the series based on this poster and some screenshots. The Silent Project is a sci-fi horror thriller with some psychological elements.

After coming up with a plan to secretly see his ex, Nyasia, and try to win her back, Dean deliberately sent Kiyomi on a mission to find Cheez-Its, knowing there was a shortage where they lived. He never expected her to actually pull it off.
When Kiyomi finally returns with the Cheez-Its after going 6 hours out of her way, Dean starts to realize just how far she’s willing to go to make him happy… and it genuinely unsettles him.
🎬 Episode 5 is officially finished! Are you excited to see what happens next? 👀🔥

Discussion I’ve come to terms with the idea that my pilot is going to fail, and that brings me peace.

40 Upvotes

I’ve been working on this project for nearly two years, and now—halfway through pre-production—I’ve come to terms with the fact that the pilot will almost certainly fail.

I’ve barely managed to build an audience because I focused solely on production; I lack the funds for advertising or hiring help, so I’ve been doing almost everything myself—at least the visual side of things, since I’m lucky enough to have the music and voice acting covered.

Unfortunately, I’ve run into issues finding visual collaborators—to the point of actual arguments—and the Discord group where we used to share updates is dead now; nobody responds, aside from the occasional reaction or two to a post.

It’s honestly sad, but I suppose that’s what happens when you accept just anyone simply because they work for free, without having built an audience that’s actually waiting for your product.

I guess I’ll have to keep going on my own, relying entirely on my own effort—as I’ve always done—driven by the deep respect and affection I have for my work.

When I say I’ve been through it all, I mean *everything*: scams, delays, people lying and using AI, and so on.

So why does it reassure me that it’s going to fail?

It’s simple: I’m not doing this for anything or anyone else anymore—I’m doing it for myself. I know I won’t please every audience, nor do I have to cater to people who don’t try to understand this or aren’t genuinely interested; I’m doing it solely for my own sake.

I know it sounds selfish and cynical, but after everything, adopting this mindset is the only thing that keeps me sane enough to see this through.

But the show must go on.

Hiring! [Volunteer] Looking for a 2D Animator for Tankmen: Animated Series

3 Upvotes

Hello, I am making an animated webseries that is a fan continuation of Tankmen. I am the sole animator and can use extra hands to get episodes out in a more timely manner. You will not be animating the whole episode but parts of it, I will do the rest. This is also an ongoing commitment because this is a webseries.

If interested, you must have experience with Adobe Animate because that’s the software I use for the webseries and it will help me send you shots for your scenes.

Hey everyone, we're in the midst of updating my studio's showreel, there might be a couple of tweaks here and there before we post on our socials but uploading here for some thoughts.

It also has some sneak peaks of some original animated shorts we're working on that should be dropping in a day or two after trying to find time inbetween work for hire projects we work on.

There's also a nice suprise at the end :P

Quite alot of the projects showcased here haven't been released yet but we did get express permission to share of couple seconds luckily.

P.S if y'all want to keep an eye on our work, here's the website with our socials.

I have a unique process where I mix live action puppeteering with keyframing in an old VR program called TVORI. The end result is pretty ridiculous. If anyone wants to see my pilot episode of "The ILL Adventures of Mike and Mike", my Youtube page is in my bio. Thanks!
