https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXHtmjPIURUEveryone's most anticipated indie animation is out! Enceladus V ep 1 just dropped on youtube!
>>146437801Cool! Interesting choice to format for phones. But I suppose that gives it the widest audience
>>146437801Enchiladas?
>>146437801Andi a cute. CUTE
Can't wait to see more!
>>146437801Is alright, I'll watch the next episode...
>>146437801Last thread storyboard anon mentioned how hard it would be to make more episodes, but I'd recommend doing shorter comics, drawings or rough animatics with the characters. I think when you have a solid enough cast, fans would get satisfied just seeing them in action regardless of how.
>>146437801Kicking a guy in the balls on a generation ship seems like something that would be really frowned on.
Hey /co/! On break from work. How are we feeling?!
>>146444154Huh didnt process the name. This is Izel/Andi Anon
>>146444172>>146444154All good, very happy with your performance n the pilot
>>146444219Niiiiice and aw shucks thank you!!!
>>146444154pretty good. hoping you guys are getting interest from actual studios
>>146437801Incel I-IV weren't good. Not hopeful about this fifth one.
>>146437801Why is the screen so small
Wait, that was it? We waited this long for a two minute short that was animated worse than random RT side content? Embarrassing
>>146444950its meant for tiktok
>>146445065Explains so much
>>146445014Fake fan
>>146445239Is this an ongoing franchise or something lol
>>146445278It will be
>>146439796I hate I also had the same thing in mind
>>146437801cool stuff
>>146437801Vertical format is a bit of an iffy idea for an actual show. I get that they're trying to appeal to new gen with Tiktok, but I think most would still rather watch shows with a regular ratio. Overall, I liked it. The character personalities and interactions felt more appealing than stuff you see with other indie animation characters, it has some bite to it. I hope it gets more attention.I appreciate all the manservice.
>>146446629I definitely think its a risk to take the vertical format, but it does make it interesting. I can only imagine how harder it would be to make this sequence vertically because you'd have to render way more stuff.
>>146442315They must have plenty of frozen jizz stored away, but in general I think kicks in the balls are to be frowned upon as part of a game. He recovered much too quickly, that shit hurts in a fundamental way.
>>146446949Thats some deep lore
Sex
>>146437801>Voltron 2Fuck off.
>>146448170Its voltron but not cringe
>>146441173I think shorter animations are the way to go, especially if it's targeting the TikTok crowdLike a variation between shorter clips and sometimes something longer
>>146439796Yes, Anon.
>>146446949If the future people are so smart, he would have had a codpiece.
>>146446949It's about the quality of the jizz not the quantity. Even if you have loads of back up cum, it's more important that there is a good genetic variety so that a bottleneck is avoided for as long as possible. If Cal's balls get damaged, then that's one point of genetic variation that won't be producing anymore.
>>146437801I only now noticed the shadowy figure behind the T guy
>>146448926>>146448930This thread took a turn
>over 100k views on TikTokI guess the format does work
>>146448763Thats true, but animations take time, even when they’re not colored. Guess it depends on how fast the artist skills are.
>>146444901Knowing how stingy they are maybe its better if it stays indie
>>146449660>viewsI don't think that's a lot for Tiktok standards
>>146437801That's really fun. Looking forward to seeing more!
>>146437801Super good animation but do wish it would be a standard widescreen format so it feels more like a show. It's very unique though.9 or 9.5/10
>>146448457>Its voltron but not cringe>No robot lions.>Plot is future space people pandering to modern day tiktok audience.>Every character has Tumblr cheeks.>Turbo granny is all dried up.On paper, it's all the cringe. But one of my favorite lewd artists is excited for it so I'm willing to give 'em a shot.But the robot designs are quite a hurdle, particularly the lack of fighting robot lions.
>>146451917Voltron barely had those lions by the end anyways
>>146449967Hey, 100K in any platform is still a lot. There’s plenty of tik toks who can’t break over 10K. The algorithm is good but it doesn’t work all the time.
>>146452891I wouldn't know I never made it to the end of Voltron.
>>146437801>This will put 2024 gamers in a comaWTF this will be games a gorillion years from now... we're so back bros
>>146449660100k is not a lot on tiktok but it has less than 10,000 which is an ultra mega flop lol>>146445014Yep
>>146454103Probably read it wrong, my bad
>>146454103You'll get em next time, Guardian.
>>146454103maybe it'll gain popularity along the way
>>146454103I feel you. Pilot episodes are usually tend to be like this at first and I know it was one of hell to make it for the first time. You should feel proud for the airing the episode and I wish you the best rest until next time.
>>146437801I found this to be highly enjoyable.
>>146454581Yeah, it's high quality stuff. I'm just worried that Enceladus V's episode releases won't be frequent enough to keep people engaged. It's gotten harder and harder for any platform to do that. Trends live and die in a matter of days now
>>146454103Sorry to hear that, I hope it gets traction later. It deserves more love.
>>146454527>>146454448>>146455079It's okay, I expected it. It's not ideal, especially because I started doing this because my dumb little animations did well on tiktok, but a lot has changed since I started working on it unfortunately. >>146454927Yeah, I'm likely going to have to step back and reassess. There's no way I'm going to be able to make more efficiently right now. Right now I have to focus on making enough money to live in this shithole until my industry figures itself out.
>>146455383Are you gonna put it on YouTube shorts? I occasionally upload shit and when you put #shorts in the title, I notice it makes a world of difference in reach. Putting niche tags limits your range. That and maybe add a few hashtags in the YouTube upload? Or title it "Enceladus V PILOT" like how others format it? These sound like dumb lil things but the algo is weird and it's worth a shot
>>146454103That's the annoying part isn't it? But at least you got a project completed, and not a lot of people can say that. So you still got something to be super proud of. Here's hoping it gains more traction.
>>146437801Where is the TikTok link?
>>146456236https://www.tiktok.com/@1111anim/video/7439068141763759402
>>146455383Wishing you best of luck
>>146437801Why does the robot needs clothes?
>>146456127I put it on regular YouTube so I could fit the credits in, but I might put it up on shorts too
>>146454103Would it help the algorithm if I were to let the phone automatically replay the video on TikTok through the entire night
>>146457200I don't think that's how the algorithm works
I don't want this to die. Any way to reduce animation quality and release them faster and in landscape mode?
i need andi and the other guy to fuck NOW
>>146458449i mean and the guy*not the other guysince andi is a tomboya cute tomboyThey need to fuck NOW
>>146454103Try to see if any popular animation Twitter users are willing to take a look at it.I enjoyed these short 2 minutes and 30 seconds over the entirety of that Art of Murder indie animation that just hit 1 million views in a week.I do think the vertical format and limited runtime is holding it back from getting attention, but I guess not much you can do with limited resources.
>>146458677Is...is that an edit or....
>>146442315there's enough reserves in the goon pod, they'll be alright for a few centuries.
I'm starting to feel bad for storyboard anon. first onyx equinox and now this, it seems like luck is not on their side.
>>146459759it sucks because both are really good but not many animation people are promoting it. somethings off
>>146458677Yeah it's not bad, but it's VERY different from other web animation in terms of presentation, which would drive a good amount away
>>146460041I think that gives it an edge though, at least in terms of personal quality
>>146459759The hazbin hotel and tangled songs did pop off though
>>146459759Lol. Yeah I'm having a rough one overall I'll be honest>>146460033Plenty of people have been really supportive of EV, a ton of animation people backed me too. I'm actually really happy for all the support. EV is fine, I didn't expect it to go crazy or anything, I think overall I'm just disappointed I'm not going to be able to continue in that format for a while.Onyx is a different case though. The few articles that came out about it were people saying it was problematic for showing violence in an indigenous civilization or whatever. Crunchyroll also basically aborted it and had a terrible reputation for how they handled High Guardian Spice. And it was released during peak Covid. Just kind of a perfect storm of shitty situations.>>146460107This makes me feel like I've already peaked in my career lol ;_;
>>146460188Tangentially related but we watched Twilight of the Gods and it reminded me a suspicious amount of Onyx Equinox lol. Maybe I'm a schizo but they also interviewed Sofi for it way back
>>146460188>I think overall I'm just disappointed I'm not going to be able to continue in that format for a while.I get that, but I do think it's good you have likable characters you can put in any scenario. You'll probably find the right format for them later.
>>146458449how does she take it? backshots or wholesome missionary?
>>146460188>This makes me feel like I've already peaked in my career lol ;_;I dunno, the fact it happened in two different shows by completely different studios makes me think you have the skills to do it again, don't doubt them. If you don't get to do something like it again I will blame the studios rather than you for not giving opportunities.
>>146460188has cartoon brew or anyone like that put up an article on your cartoon yet? maybe hit them up for some 'exposure'.
>>146437801>Wokebattler V
>>146460343'Wholesome' missionary while flinching and whimpering about how she's just a pathetic girl.
>>146460671More like Based Battler
>>146460211Zack Snyder ripping off better things as usual
Some drawings for your troubles SBA
>>146442315Its not star trek
>>146453608kek
>>146437801can't believe tiktok banned it.
>>146462527I love it anon!! Thank you ;_;
>>146451917>But one of my favorite lewd artists is excited for it so I'm willing to give 'em a shot.That is the most pathetic reasons to be on board for something.
>>146437801>Green skin pixie-cut cutie.You have my attention.
>>146464403animation so good they thought it was stolen
Bump to watch and comment later.
>>146437801>4k viewsMaybe should've promoted it more.
>>146439285fucking tiktok demonetized it, probably some drone saw it and assumed someone uploaded an anime clip stolen from somewhere
>>146465571There’s gotta be a way to appeal that
>>146460188>people saying it was problematic for showing violence in an indigenous civilizationViolence in a mesoamerican civilization?? Perish the thought.
>>146466465
>>146464403>>146465571frustrating but I guess it's also a badge of honor
>>1464378011: Why the fuck would you make this in a vertical aspect ratio? 2:Seriously what are smoking?3: So are they like time travelers? I thought this is set in the future why are they talking about 2024? Are they breaking the 4th wall?
>>146466643its formatted for tiktok (ironically, tiktok demonetized it)
>>146466643>So are they like time travelers?They are in the future and have discovered an archive of 2024 tiktok memes are are using future space science to beam back meme re-enactments from the future into the past.
>>146465333Glad you like it
>>146466465>>146466478it was a made up bullshit spaniards invented to claim they had the divine right to kill them all. there's no real proof people were sacrificed since the invaders burned all the books and destroyed all the monuments so they could re-write the history in their favor.
>>146466643I think the idea is that Andi is recording everything on her cell phone. However, I'd still expect a show to eventually pan out to horizontal ratio after the first few minutes.
>>146454103If Nigel and Marmalade can find success in short Versailles format you can too. Yours might take longer but it can work.
>>146466465>It hasn't ruined in like a week. It's so dry.>You thinking what I'm thinking.>Stab a man in the chest and lull out his still beating heart>Bingo
>>146467191Lo que tu digas mano, seguro que lo tienes estudiado
>>146460211>Onyx Equinoxhttps://youtu.be/vVBAOJIi6TgWHY DO I ONLY HEAR ABOUT THIS SERIES NOWTHIS IS EXACTLY 100% MY JAM
>>146467191OwO what's thishttps://www.science.org/content/article/feeding-gods-hundreds-skulls-reveal-massive-scale-human-sacrifice-aztec-capital>Some conquistadors wrote about the tzompantli and its towers, estimating that the rack alone contained 130,000 skulls. But historians and archaeologists knew the conquistadors were prone to exaggerating the horrors of human sacrifice to demonize the Mexica culture. As the centuries passed, scholars began to wonder whether the tzompantli had ever existed.it did!
>>146465356There's nothing wrong with liking something based on attractive visuals.
>>146468105It's kino. Honestly voicing on these shows was so much fun.
>>146467191Gringo pendejo? O solo super pendejo?
>>146468105>>146468268all the cartoons I like get cut short and I hate it
>>146467191Dude. There's ABUNDANT amount of archeological evidence that they did human sacrifices. And much more than any of their neighbours, too.Not to mention, sculptures representing it.Not to mention, the Spanish didn't burn every single text either.
>>146466643The decline of centuries mixed with space madness
How much cheaper would it be to produce episodes with rough draft animations instead of fully rendered ones? I sometimes feel that WIPs get more traction than finished products, like when artists post a screenshot of their WIP on Procreate instead of the finished thing. Also, Andi a cutie. I need more of this boy girl.>>146454103The algorithm works in mysterious ways. I personally loved EV. It was worth the wait.
>>146469918I don’t know what is SBA status now, but while rough animatics are doable, they’re not a walk in the park either. That said, the anime meme she made seemed like something she popped up fast, and that’s pretty good looking.
Aside from the vertical format gimmick there was nothing particularly engaging about this. Some cute character designs and camera moves but I can’t say my interest was stimulated. More Voltron.
SBA anon I hope you enjoy the Arcane finale and it isn't a massive fucking dissapointment
>>146437801cute couple
>>146474821The best
>>146460343hand holding and avoiding direct eye contact while unwittingly locking her feet against his ankles
>>146475030Damn
>>146468148>no actual proof other than conquistadors saying a big number and that it was definitely trueyou fags are worse than "I heckin love science!" redditors that believe everything they're told
>Official shorts upload has less than a 1,000 views after a dayMan this is just sad to see :(
>>146476574It's why I said earlier that SBA should have put #shorts in the title. Apparently, it helps the video make it's way to the shorts feed instead of suggested, which is where it really can blow up. If it never makes it to the shorts feed, it's DOA. It could make it there in a few days but it's little things that can make a difference. I noticed it myself. The algo blowing you up is random but there are some tips out there. Imo, SBA should reupload it. No shame in doing so.
>>146462527Neat!
>>146477906thanks
>>146473437we'll find out soon enough
>>146453276I need more Robutt
