Apologies to everyone who's been following this account. I'm gonna try and be more active here again after the project has been on a bit of a silent break.
Expect another post coming later today.

👑Character Introduction!👑

Damien Rigas is the bombastic and obsessive antagonist of Leave Me to Dream, but he doesn't like to think of himself that way. He's simply a chill dude trying to get the love of his life back. Through any means necessary.

Zipped Up released an animatic preview for the song Big Top Big Shots! THIS is what completely hooked me on Zipped Up's concept. I see the vision, and the vision is incredible!

I’m in a difficult spot both mentally and financially. As such I’m opening up VA commissions. For 50 CAD, you can have me record a short cameo or alike for your entertainment. Nothing involving hatred to any group of people or anything to deal with fetishes.

We'll be doing our usual unpublishing of our #IndieAnimationDay feed to combat spam, but the feed will return on 2nd May 2025.

Why not pin our main Indie Animation feed instead? You'll see much more from many talented creators 👇 #SupportIndieAnimation

Commission your friends for art. Give them dollars (this makes them happy) in exchange for drawing you like (this makes you happy). This is symbiosis. This is a healthy ecosystem.

Support your friends. Support art. Support your friends' art.

If you want to understand why so many indie-shows have trouble going beyond a pilot this video explains it all
We made a video essay! If you've ever been curious to learn about how animation gets its funding, then check this out! Here's a preview: IT'S ROUGH OUT HERE

Huge thanks to the Lackadaisy team for giving us insight into their production! 💚

It's easy to say 'just go indie' in response to problems in the animation industry, but it's not so easy in practice.
In hopes we can ultimately improve the terrain for artists + indie productions alike, we shared some of our experience with the @jellybox.bsky.social team~

A lot of people think that "just go indie" is the easy answer to creating animation, but they glibly suggest this because they have no idea what that actually entails. This is a great breakdown of how that works and why it's not necessarily the answer people seem to think it is.

I know my proof of concept won't be the prettiest, or the most professional thing out there. But i've poured years of my life into it and I don't intend to give that up now... or anytime soon

Hypothetical, but let's say if a new high-quality Indie Animated Series started charging for post-pilot episodes as an alternate form of series funding, how much would you be willing to pay for each episode? #indieanimation #indie
