I’ve got this idea for an animated series about dogs, a mix of slice of life and fantasy adventure with some sci-fi elements. There’s also a big villain with some twists later on. Problem is, I can’t draw very well and know even less about how to animate. Where should I start learning, what should I look into, or where could I share my ideas? Any advice helps. Thanks.

>>150396127I love patch!Also try >>>/ic/
>>150396127To draw you go for Loomis' Fun with a Pencil, to animate look into "The Animators' Survival Kit" by Richard Williams.>>150397265Patch is best boy and his sequel was good compared to most DTV sequels. I always wanted a TV show sequel when I was a kid and I was sad when I found out the actual show didn't use him.
>>150396127Write the story. THEN you'll have something to show people.
>>150397265I don't think /ic/ cares about animation.
>>150397409He was in the show but they gave him a weird redesign
>>150397833Patch looks bulky on the show, he's based on his book version.
>>150398316I wonder why they didn't use the movie version.

>>150396127First of all: don’t make it look like beanmouthSecond of all, learn to draw realistically first before you stylize, you gotta know the rules before you bend or break them.
>>150398633I don't think feral beanmouth exists.
>>150398550The show is weird, it was trying to be its own thing but was also based every version of 101 Dalmatians, there's Cadpig from the book, Cruella is based on the live action version, while Pongo and Perdita are the same from the original movie. The weird thing is also how it was american instead of british, my guess is that they felt kids would relate better if the show was based on the 90's america instead of a sequel set in the UK during the 60's

>>150396127Why don't you start with a script? I know a lot of artist-types tend to frown upon scripts, but a written aid is usually more than enough to get the ball rolling for any artist curious about your project.
>>150396127>animated series about dogs, a mix of slice of life and fantasy adventureBeasts of Burden?
>>150399125>Beasts of BurdenNever heard of it but I'll give it a look, thanks.
>>150399043I don't like where this is going Would be based if Patch and Thunder double team the groupies tho
>>150399706Why do they do that?
>>150399590Oh it goes places. But not there.
>>150399924You just know.
>>150399950>Oh it goes places.Do tell.
>>150400874Well it goes to his trailer for one.https://files.catbox.moe/4nrjac.jpeghttps://files.catbox.moe/9nt5w0.jpeg
>>150396127just look for artists online and tell them to join your project, since you can't pay them with money tell them you can pay them with exposure, it's way more than what those losers deserve.
>>150396127I agree with those saying you should write it down first, either as regular sotry or as screenplay/script. You can do a bit of drawing alongside, and having the story in a readble format may also give more insiration to draw.
>>150401303It's an option, but I'd much rather draw and animate it myself.
