Channel Frederator RAW

I am looking for an animator to collaborate with for an animated pilot I plan on pitching to adult swim.

You must be willing to work on sick material such as stemcell fetus sidekicks...and people being set on fire, and other action packed gore.

I have a sequence written but needs to be animated. get at me if your interested.

do you know of any web site that tell you how to make a pitch bible or what it should look like?

Joe Murray (http://joemurraystudio.com/) has really interesting ebook out and there are sections about creating pitches, pitch bibles and dealing with networks.

A very interesting and worth while read for somebody that wants to create an animated series for television.

I've pitched to Adult Swim. Don't waste your time (and cash!) animating anything just yet. Most producers want to maintain some semblance of control. If you give them finished product, they can't put their own mark on it. Get your idea to them and see if they're interested first. If they are, you'll have no trouble finding an animator.

i'm not trying to make a whole episode just yet. just the opening sequence as a demo. things get moving faster when things are visible. when you have something you can show them, it gives them a sense of "hey these guys are serious and not just have some "cute idea"

that's why producers always ask to see something, be it a demo reel or whatever.

I'm looking to put together the title sequence and have it animated as my hook to the pitch. if i was to just tell you my idea, it might not come off so good. (i know i know, if you can't make it sound good on paper it's probably not good) Once the title sequence hook is animated and we can show it to people, it'll create some buzz.

Have you ever pitched before?

If you made a tutorial or a guideline for pitching, it'd be much obliged.

Pitching is just a matter of knowing what the client wants and delivering your own idea in that format. Rule 1, investigate your audience.

Don't over think it. Especially with Adult Swim. The last thing they care about is how your idea looks visually.

I'm really not over thinking anything. you may be able to pitch an idea to people. But you can spread your pitch easier and get a lot more people's interest peaked if there's something that is actually created.

I'm gonna take South Park as an example again. Granted South Park is amazing now, with clever stories intertwined with its foul mouthed kiddies. The first thing that got them noticed was there Christmas Video Greeting Card "The Spirit Of Christmas"

It's still funny but it's not even close to what South Park has evolved in to. No CGI, no Computer Animation at all actually. But it peaked people's interest and now look at them, they're on their 11th season. Now I know i'm not gonna create the next South Park but I know I have a very entertaining cartoon that will peak SOMEBODY's interest. If not adult swim, maybe Comedy Central...they put on that horrible Drawn Together show and that did pretty well, I don't know if it's still on but it was on for at least 2 years.

As you can probably tell, I'm just very interested in peaking people's interest and keeping it peaked. I want to show these people something that is ridiculous (in the best way possible) and have them love it.

So I'm looking for an Animator that has the balls...OR the ovaries (no sexism here) to get involved with this little project o mine.

You are certainly passionate about your idea. That's great! I'd love to hear more about it.

South Park got started when Spike & Mike was still king at breaking in new talent (Beavis, Whoop Ass Stu, A'lamour, et.) Furthermore, Chris Graves and Trey Parker had just won a Student Academy Award for "American History", which was the precursor to South Park. They had Hollywood studios calling them before that South Park short was even created. I'm not saying you shouldn't make your cartoon. Quite the contrary. But make it for you, not for Adult Swim.

Good Luck!

i definitely want to make it for myself, I said adult swim because i have a link to them, so i figured i can easily get it towards them...but I'm willing to show it to anyone.
