New Adult Swim, Comedy Central, FX style animated Pilot: Michael, Jordan and the Beanstalk

Here is the full length pilot episode of an Adult Swim, Comedy Central style animated show we plan to shop around. This episode is called Michael, Jordan and the Beanstalk. The whole story was "written" from scratch two years ago during an improvised recording session, and visually brought to life this summer after we finally figured out an efficient animation process. Enjoy!

how did u animate the arms? when i do cut-outs it looks shitty

[pldshrtprdctns]

@tgmagee186 I used the After Effects puppet tool. It's pretty cool.

It's pretty funny! x3 But there's no females in the show, so it might not appeal to that demographic! However its pretty funny and I enjoyed it. :D and I'm a girl. But get a girl character haha~

[pldshrtprdctns]

@PopPrincesses Uh oh busted! You're right, and we did realize that one glaring absence and will be sure to make up for it in the next one. That way young females around the globe will have a role model to look up to the same way young males look up to these characters! ;) Thanks for watching!

This is funny but could use a bit of work, and maybe make the characters blink a bit more to add a little more life to the characters

[pldshrtprdctns]

Yeah I thought about it, but decided I could save some time by not adding blinks. Maybe on the next one. Thanks for watching!

I can see you put a lot of work into this but I didn't like it very much. I guess your characters are good and you can build on them, but for the pilot episode I found the beanstalk idea boring. See, the beanstalk stories are a bit overrated to me because they have been done so many times. I feel like I, as a viewer, would want more of a backstory. How did Mike and Jordan become friends? Why are they so poor? Where do they live? Etc. For first time animation though, this was good quality.

@PopPrincesses there is a girl and she is the perfect role model :D
