Cartoon Industry thread - Showcasing the Spergery of the Animation Industry

I thought that the different rock types were going to lead to pokemon type collect them all toys or something like that, and never did, which is weird seeing as anything that can be sold usually is.

Kids don't wanna buy toys of crying alien women from a show they weren't watching in the first place.

Steven Universe x Rock Lords crossover never.

Do it. Not because I want you to or anything, but because it would mean KiwiFarms finally taking matters into their own hands for once,

Count me in, bros.

Would the Kiwimation Studio accept remote work lol? Ever since the coof, it sounds like it's much more acceptable for there to be remote animators and concept artists even though that should only be for making backups and taking work home when you clock out. Because Lord knows I would've loved to have been able to take projects home back when I took 3D animation even though we couldn't afford Maya and I didn't know about Blender.

I think something like shared works like TortoiseSVN would be the way to go, unless I am way behind and there's something much, much better. For sharing works and working on versions. I mean, there's the git model, of course.

What kind of show or movie are you looking to make?

No idea who you're asking, but I'll bite.

I love my magical girls, I eat that shit up when I can. Thing is, though, every magical girl show showcased in this thread are failures for being rip-offs of other famous magical girl shows, are shit parodies because that's all they want to be, and in the off-chance they do want to be straight-forward, they're just checking off diversity boxes, and I find that insulting. Just do a fucking magical girl show is all I'm asking, how is that so hard?

The thing that would make my magical girls stand out is that I like magical witches and wish they'd be implemented more. Also, the characters are religious in some way that's non-negotiable, and in one series, it's literal powers of heaven being granted to the girls to fight evil and the main lead has a crucifix broach on her bodice. This alone would assure it's never greenlit unless I take it to those shitty Christian knock-off Korean studios, and even then, many Christians would see it as blasphemous/sacrilege/heresy/whatever they'd say. Same goes for the other even though it's about a married Christian couple who accidentally gain magical powers and they have to keep their double lives a secret because they don't want to be labeled as heretics, though the wife designs her transformed self to be angelic in appearance and actions to try to mitigate that.

However, I'll have to stop being lazy and finish my ideas so I can publish them before any of them can be allowed to be picked up/shipped around for an adaptation so I can maintain rights and be a creative consultant (so as to stop headcanons from happening). I don't care if I'm involved in any other way, I would honestly be a shitty director and/or producer of any kind.

Dude I wanna help bring this to life. I have some Biblical background too and I can study the Bible more if you're up to it.

D'aww thanks. I actually would like more information on Catholicism, Judaism, and Shintoism/Hinduism (or just more Asian beliefs in general, Taoism wouldn't be a bad idea either) more tbh, though I also wouldn't mind trying to make some of the more fundamentalist/evangelical sides be more accurate without being outright negative. Just in general, I just want to be accurate with any and all religious depictions so it's natural to the characters' beliefs in both pros and cons. Want it to be natural for the girls to be staunch believers in their faiths while also having moments of questioning and wavering and even epiphanies.

I feel like this could work if you took full advantage of the European/Gothic Holy Church aesthetic. Like, maybe make the girls look like either Nuns or more angelic in looks. You could definitely have something there.

Fun! You want the distilled cool shit from the Apocrypha read the book of Enoch. So many concepts ripe for the picking. Fallen angels, the origins of weaponry, cannibal giants… you can’t help but walk away with good ideas.

What’s the consensus on Moho? Seems like a relatively cheap, own-it-forever solution for rich looking 2D. Secret of Kells did well with it.

The main girl has a more old-school look to her (least I think she does lol) but I didn't have a theme for designing their clothes outside of it pertaining to their powers. So like for example, the water-based witch has a raincoat/poncho design, and the earth-based witch is more of a farmer since she already lives on a family farm. I honestly prefer a team of magical girls à la Tokyo Mew Mew where they have a singular thread/theme linking them together but their costumes and weapons are diverse. Silhouette test or what have you, I just think it looks neat.

There was a fellow in the late 1600s who claimed he was a werewolf and he and his werewolf buds would all go into Hell and fight demons for God. His name was Thiess of Kaltenbrunn. Might be a good fit for your story.

I love how there were lolcows throughout history lol. I'll put a pin in that, it could make for a fun reference for the husband's side of the story.

The best part is he was called as a witness in a court case about a robbery that had nothing to do with werewolves, he just brought it up.

"They were aware of the fact that local people considered him to be a werewolf who had consorted with the Devil, but they initially had little interest in such allegations, which were unrelated to the case at hand.[1] Nonetheless, although it had no bearing on the case, Thiess freely admitted to the judges that he considered he had once been a werewolf, but claimed to have given it up ten years previously.[1]"

As much as I don’t think this will go anywhere, ngl, I think a bunch of teenage girls fighting demons while occasionally taking potshots at Current Year would be fun to watch. If you want a good model for the forces of evil, in both strategy and organization, you should take a look at The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis.

Does it truly count as "current year" if it takes place in the 2000s?
