#indiependence — Public Fediverse posts

To finish off the last of these #INDIEpendence posts, a showcase.

Animation Appreciation Hub on YT posted a series of pitches by indie animators to hopefully catch your attention. 15 proposals for your consideration. If you are interested in the pitches, give it a look.

And that is July. Thank you @duskcomics for the idea. I hope to have some fun new ones for next year.

2nd to last of these #INDIEpendence posts

Money Wrench is about space mercenaries. A 2 man crew takes jobs, in competition with other mercs. With petty rivalries, frenimies, and general assholes.

This is an adult animation with 4 eps. Made by Zeurel. It is supported by crowdfunding and merch.

CW cursing, gun violence, rudeness

We dont know much about Knights Of Guinevere. But we know it involves a ~beautiful~ maiden. Sleeping somewhat peacefully in a meadow, surrounded by woodland creatures. I wonder what she's dreaming about.

So far, we only have a fully animated teaser. It is created by Dana Terrace (#TheOwlHouse), John Bailey Owen (TOH), and Zach Marcus (TOH, Star VTFOE)

In Spice Frontier, a small ship of a ragtag group falls to a wild planet. While doing repairs, they take some time to explore for great ingredients. There is just a smalllll problem.

This is a highly detailed production by Steamroller. It is copyright to them, I dont see a major studio or anything. So I'm guessing it's indie. Beautiful art. Beautiful designs. Beautiful voice acting.

MECHWEST - Episode 3

The group travels to a low down, pit of a town. And it's full of bad folk too. Where a misguided bet puts 6 in danger. We also see the map of Meridian. And where its troubles lie, and where it doesnt.

A lot of news is gonna come out of San Diego Comic Con this week!
Just like what I mentioned with the Superman movie, let’s not give free marketing for all the DC, Marvel and big Movie news.

There will be plenty of indie news San Diego Comic Con that will need our help to boost their signal over all the mainstream noise, so let’s help where it will do the best.

Among the Others seems to be an adventure, Sci Fi series. In a fleshed out world of Otheora, one man is ripped from his world, to one of strange energies, nihilist cults, & a ragtag group.

Below is the sizzle reel. Showing off interviews with the crew, and a bit of the cast. The production has done some interesting ideas to promote the show, that I think any other production could benefit from.

A Comic Con for Creators By Creators?

I had a thought at a con last weekend. With costs going up everywhere, what if various creators and publishers and such just pooled our money, rented a venue, and hired a couple of bigger name guests and have a show with our focus in mind.

Don't get me wrong I love comic cons and I will continue to support them, but I thought maybe it would be good to thing outside the box and try something a little new.

Thoughts?

@admin Thanks for joining in! #Indiependence has caught on with a few people and that is all we need to let it grow from here!

A reminder, I am participating in @duskcomics idea of #INDIEpendence. An event to celebrate Indie artists and projects in the month of July. If you are an Indie artist, or are part of an Indie project, or if you enjoy an indie work; post about it on the hashtag. Help get word out for a work that is not under a major brand.

These works depend not on company advertising, but from word of mouth. So help out your favorite work, even if you already talked about them.

The Gaslight District is a city full of immortals. But not your fancy vampire kind. *Oh* no. Heh, infact, the less human the BETTER. Where the Smiling Dead gang roam. And the angels do their level best to MESS everything up.

A grimy, gritty, grossy show that moves a frantic pace. Made by Glitch, & supported by their merch service.

CW violence, gore, mental instability, grossness

The !Amazing! Digital Circus is a *fantastic* place where people are kept from their normal life, to go on iNtErEsttting missions by the great Cane! Not sure why they keep complaining.

It is made by Glitch. And is supported by merch. It has a few eps out now. And is less so indie, as it now has a deal to simultaneously release eps on Netflix.

Superman doesn’t need a Signal Boost
Indie Comics need a Signal Boost

And I am not saying don’t talk about him but maybe take that same love and energy and give some of it to Indie Comics too.

Maybe like for every post about Superman, you do one for Indie Comics too.
Maybe for every comment about Superman, you can do one for Indie Comics too.

Lets get some obvious ones out of the way. #HelluvaBoss is an action, comedy, musical set in hell. All sexy, seven rings of them. It is a full, in-production show, supported by merch. It's made by Vivienne Medrano & her #SpindleHorse team. It has been in production since '19.

Less indie now that it has a deal with Amazon to be shown on Prime first. However, this show's importance to the current #IndieAnimation movement CANNOT be ignored.

Creator, @duskcomics, posted an idea for July called #INDIEpendence. An event to feature indie creators.
https://socel.net/@duskcomics/114740141655902341

I thought it was a wonderful idea to do. (Tho still a good idea to talk about indie creations throughout the year.) So I thought I would feature it. And, contribute to it thru July. I am compiling a list of Indie works I will sprinkle thru the month.

Feel free to recommend something. Or personally recommend using the hashtag.
