Hey, I found this web animation pilot on Youtube. I was really impressed with it, especially when we compare it to things the big animation companies are producing these days.
Could be worse. I expected the Platonic ideal of Tumblr.It's like we've achieved the platonic solid of DeviantArt.
A couple of the jokes really landed, but most were stale.
Something tells me that if it gets picked up, some of the raunchier jokes will have to go. That one visual gag in Helluva Boss about murdering a cheating wife while she's in bed with her paramour? Yeah. That ain't going to fly on Netflix.One of the most interesting concepts for a web series I’ve seen in a while. The audio could use some refinement (the sound effects are a bit excessive, and I couldn’t understand Charlie’s song without reading the lyrics), and I’m not sure how Charlie’s rehabilitation plot is gonna intersect with the political power games Alastor will clearly involve them in, but overall I quite enjoyed it, and would love to see it get picked up.
There’s also this spin-off series in the same setting. More episodic and comedy-focused, but still worth keeping an eye on, I think.
I threw up a little at the thought of that.Could be worse. I expected the Platonic ideal of Tumblr.
I mean, considering that it is a full length pilot done completely by amateurs out of love for the idea and the medium... I feel like the fact that the biggest complaint is that some of the jokes fell flat is pretty damn impressive when you think about it.Could be worse. I expected the Platonic ideal of Tumblr.
I'm with you on the jokes. A lot of them fell flat, and need a little work on the delivery.

So... as it turns out, a longtime friend of mine used to be a freelance animator. And not only does he know some of the people behind Hazbin Hotel, he was invited to do some freelance work on it.I mean, considering that it is a full length pilot done completely by amateurs out of love for the idea and the medium...

Does a thirsty man in the desert have to be picky when he finds fresh water?Meeeh. It might not be Cali-art but it’s not much further above it.
Yes. Unless he wants to get dysentery and die shitting his guts out.Does a thirsty man in the desert have to be picky when he finds fresh water?

I was speaking in metaphors.You know there are ways of drinking unclean water with less risk right? So, you can afford to not be picky when the alternative is death by dehydration.
