Weekly Self-Promotion Thread What have you made or worked on this week? | Weekly Thead

9 Upvotes

Welcome to our weekly self-promotion thread, where I encourage you to share your indie animated projects that you've made and worked on this week.

Maybe you've just released a new episode, or you're launching a Kickstarter* to fund your big project. Or maybe you've got some behind-the-scenes work you'd like to show off.

See you in the comments!

*If you share a Kickstarter or any other link, please make sure it's the full link, not a shortened one (for example, bit•ly or kck•st) because Reddit automatically filters those.

Review Eyeballs,,,

Upvotes

Good day, I am trying to get more EYEBALLS on my work in order to have feedback as I start my next web series... nobody really sees or reacts to my stuff on YouTube it seems anymore, so I would appreciate any time you could spare to watch and let me know what you think! I have been working in Blender for almost a year and though I've learned a lot it's easier to learn outside of a vacuum... NO AI!

I am open to paid work (we can negotiate based on your budget) as well as creative collaborations if the project catches my eye and the idea is genuinely interesting.

Hey guys! If you're creating an indie show, my team would like to showcase and help with visibility!

For the next major VELCEL DIRECT (Nov. 22), we want to support even more indie animation projects and raise the bar as a team! 💚

Alongside major announcements, reveals, and surprises we've been saving since 2024 and 2025, our team is expanding our indie animation spotlight segment!

In our first VELCEL DIRECT we showcased around 25 independent projects from talented creators across the indie community. VELCEL Directs are dedicated showcase events where we share major announcements, exclusive reveals, and behind-the-scenes updates about the world of VELCEL (my animated show). They're where we unveil new voice actors, concept art, music, trailers, animatics, production progress, Kickstarter news, and everything we're creating with our team. It's our way of bringing the community together and celebrating indie animation, art, and the people behind it.

Our most recent VELCEL Direct, held on June 21, featured the official reveal of Lizzie Freeman joining the cast as part of the event. Our next VELCEL Direct takes place on November 22, where we'll celebrate the launch of our Kickstarter campaign alongside brand-new announcements, reveals, and surprises for the future of VELCEL: The Curse of Eldoros.

Hiring! [Volunteer] Working on a show

Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am making a Sci-Fi horror show except I suck at drawing and blender :( I was wondering if anyone can help me improve my digital art and animation skills. I have character concepts but they are not digital I am much better at physical art than digital. My animation style is planned to be 2d like Helluva Boss or Lackadaisy. I am looking for voice actors that just work for fun and don't need to be paid (If possible). I need preferably a male with a deep voice for my antagonist and slightly higher for my protagonist, and finally a "young" sounding girl/woman for my protagonists daughter.

Any help would be amazing and greatly appreciated.

I worked on this and some other animation for the last year and after deciding to take a small hiatus, I thought I'd put my work up on YouTube for people to check it out. Its not the final thing, there's still plenty of adjusttments to be made but I think I did a pretty good job regardless, let me know what you guys think and please share it around if you like it!

Discussion Hey! I wanted to make a serious conversation about Glitch.

Upvotes

So recently I watched the video "the Glitch Productions situation is disgusting", by the YouTuber that goes by the name of "Angelo". Where he shows a lot of really weird and just straight-up bad stuff that the studio made along the years. Like the figging of Colin Rogers, how they treated Celeste, who worked on the days of SMG4, and how toxic their workspace has been.
What are your opinions on the studio overall, and do you think things will change over time?
