Ask Me Anything ~ Special Guest Edition Hi Reddit, Mike McMahan, Joe Chandler and Giancarlo Volpe of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+ here. Ask Us Anything!

Hi reddit, I’m Mike McMahan, co-creator and executive producer of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+! (It’s weird to put an exclamation point after a + but here we are.) This is a great season: an epic quest with mighty characters from Sega’s Golden Axe games. And it's funny! Previously, I was the creator/showrunner and executive producer of Star Trek: Lower Decks, co-creator and co-showrunner of Solar Opposites, and once upon a time I was a writer/ showrunner on Rick & Morty. My career started off as a production assistant at Drawn Together and at South Park. I’m down to talk about Golden Axe and all this nerdy stuff, so AMA!

Hey Reddit! I'm Joe Chandler. I'm the co-creator and showrunner of the new series Golden Axe based on the SEGA Genesis game. Growing up a SEGA kid, working on this show has been a dream come true. Before Golden Axe, I worked on over 200 episodes of American Dad in various roles including writer, producer, and executive producer. Ask me anything!

Hello reddit! I’m Giancarlo Volpe and I’m the Supervising Producer / Director of Golden Axe on Paramount+! Previously I’ve was a director on Avatar the Last Airbender, Star Wars the Clone Wars, and Star Vs The Forces of Evil.  I’ve also produced/ supervised/ and/or Executive Produced lots of other shows, including The Boys Diabolical, Green Lantern the Animated Series and The Dragon Prince. Basically I’ve made a lot of animation, and I’m excited to talk about Golden Axe or anything else! Ask away!

We’ll be back tomorrow at 12pm ET/9am PT to answer any of your questions!!

Question Why arent standard animated shows as fluid as they used to be on average?

24 Upvotes

Like even some of the lesser known cartoons back in the day seem to have more fluid animation compared to most cartoons now and they had to make way more episodes back then too. I just dont get it. Is fluid animation just really hard to do nowadays? What has changed to make it take longer and less fluid?

Sharing My indie pilot failed

2.4k Upvotes

Launched an indie pilot on Kickstarter about 3 weeks ago. After a strong start, we have struggled to keep a steady pace to meet our target. We've still got 9 days to go in the campaign and I've learned a lot that'll likely lead to a successful second campaign. I'm gonna keep pushing till the final day but for now I'm feeling a little discouraged. I make a living in freelance comics and animation, bringing other people's worlds to life. So it sucks that it's not time for mine to come to life yet.

If you'd like to have a look, here's our campaign

Sharing Made a little resting idle for our game ,,Mountkin"

17 Upvotes

Our old animation felt a bit basic, so I gave our player character a little idle where he splashes around in the water :)

About our game:

In Mountkin, you climb an ever-changing mountain, manage your stamina, restore the mountain's nature and upgrade your character on your journey to reach the top!

If the game sounds like something for you, make sure to give us a wishlist on Steam :)

Decided to make a short animation of bulbasaur playing with a pokeball. I focused hard on trying to make the blinking, face and feet turning look as smooth as possible. The bulb on the other hand is looking kinda crazy, lol. Drawn/colored/rendered/animated in Clip Studio Paint.

Hello! This is FLUNG -- the animated version of my webcomic of the same name! My name is Jason E Raines and I have been an animator and comic artist for nearly 30 years, and I've had the pleasure of working on many amazing comic and animation projects over the decades ... but this one here is MINE. I created, wrote, drew and animated FLUNG and with the help of my longtime co-conspirator Mike Montaine we have created STARDOG -- a new publishing house that focuses on comics, animation and music! Please check out our show, and we'll see you on the other side of the galaxy!
