I’ve had my head down putting together the whole Kickstarter campaign for weeks, but now I’m coming up for air. Gotta come up with a few fun things to post during this weird limbo period where I’m trying to transition to focus on the Kickstarter and longer episodes. First thing coming up is this:

This is the next step for Broats: fundraising for a two part pilot special! Stay tuned for more specifics, but please help spread the word so when we launch the campaign we can meet our goal and make the first full-length Broats episodes!

Very seriously considering ditching Adobe animate for Broats… Blender grease pencil and Moho are my top considerations, I just don’t know how quickly I can get the hang of them

The perfect company is one that produces nothing, receives money, and only has one employee (the CEO). Any time you question why a company would do something seemingly insane, just remember that they are trying to create the impossible, a perfect company, and that should help explain it.

Thanks to the Broats discord members who helped me do a test run of a Thad stream! I think I got the bugs worked out. Now to find a good time to do a real stream…

There are so many human characters that populate the Broats universe, including Quinn Squinlyn and Kraz Spazler from the most recent shorts. Who’s your favorite? Let’s take a closer look at each one below.

This is just a sincere thank you to everyone for watching the new short I’ve never had so many people watch the actual full-screen “real” version on YouTube, the way it’s intended to be viewed, before! Usually I get tons of views via Instagram or YouTube shorts, but this is what I really wanted 🙏

We have GOT to reclaim some kids animation... I really fear if they grow up with AI slop or whatever Cocomelon is we're doomed for the next generation. (One minor antidote is when they find anime in their teens)
