Now that episode 3 is released we are officially half way through the series! The first half is more of the fun side of the show as the second half dips a little into drama. This shot where Larry beats up a bunch of villagers is probably my favourite shot I animated. XD

It will be interesting to see how people will feel by the end of it. It seems like a lot of cartoons nowadays are just a mix of several genres instead of just focusing down on one. The writing of this series is done in that way so I love to see what people think by the end.

I've been busy promoting as much as I can like posting on Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok but only getting little engagement/views. I have been experimenting with posting Youtube Shorts and TikToks so having the video in a phone aspect ratio but this takes more time to edit. My DenisDaily Shorts I animated I kept in mind that it would be in both phone and widescreen but this show was animated before that. So the shots are very zoomed in which I don't like too much but maybe for future projects I will keep a phone aspect in mind.

For the next episode they will be travelling through some dark and spooky woods, I wonder what they will find?

The time has finally here where I can start releasing my series that I've been working on for like 3 years. So far the first 2 episodes are out. Originally I was planning to do monthly releases but since post production has been going very smoothly I feel confident enough with doing bi-weekly releases. The reasoning behind doing monthly was to take a bit of a break and work at a slower pace. The last time I did a big series like this I got super burned out and had to commission off the sound work where as this time I'm surprisingly fine or well not on the edge of burn out lol. So that means this whole season will be out by the end of the summer instead of the end of the year!

Well it's been about 3 years in the making but now I can finally starting rolling it out. Next weekend I plan on releasing the first episode and from on then monthly releases. I still have sound design and additional post effects to do as well as some promotional stuff including thumbnails to make. I was not expecting the project to take so long although last year it was mostly put on hold because of animating regularly for DenisDaily which arent uploaded on here! :0 but on his channel. The series does have some video game parodies and references but it is driven by an original story.

Plot

Danny is a young, gleeful, enthusiastic adult looking to climb the Holy Mountain to reach a magical wishing well. She seeks help from her reclusive, stubborn father who she hasn’t seen since she was a child.

My original indie animated series Journey is entering Post Production! :D Episodes will slowly be released throughout the year, hoping to start this month! I'll be releasing the soundtrack and trailer soon!

A little tease of how my original animated series, Journey is looking! Almost done making all the background art for all 6 episodes. As you can tell there's already some video game references in these stills :3 I would say I'm around 80% done and should still be on track for releasing it later this year. I will be releasing the soundtrack before which has already been 100% finished two years ago haha. I only got to work on the series a little bit last year since I was way too busy with work and freelancing for DenisDaily. So only worked on it for roughly 4 months last year. I can't wait to finish this series been working on it since summer of 2020! I did not expect it to take me this long to make!! XD

I haven’t released anything this year but I’ve gotten ALOT of work done on my new animated series “Journey.” I’m just trying not to show too much! I’m at the stage of working on background art. This year I did music recording, voice acted, directed voices, sound edits, rough video edits, majority of the animation and little bit of background artwork. 2022 should be a big year for my animations! A little tease ...

Here's some info on my animated web series I've been working on for over a year now!

WHAT IS IT ABOUT???

Danny is a young, gleeful, enthusiastic adult looking to climb the Holy Mountain to reach a magical wishing well. She seeks help from her reclusive, stubborn father who she hasn’t seen since she was a child.

The series will showcase lots of parodies and references to video games.

IS THIS CONNECTED TO FREAK CITY???

No, not really. It will feature Larry but the character has been changed and the tone of the show as well. The tone will be more in line with my recent work like the video game parodies, including the visuals.

WHERE CAN I EXPECT TO SEE IT?

Here on Newgrounds and my Youtube Channel, JordyToons. (Trying some new rebranding.)

HOW MANY EPISODES???

6 Episodes about 3 minutes long each.

HOW CAN I KEEP UPDATED ON THE PROJECT?

Follow my social media accounts like Instagram and Twitter. I post little videos and pictures of my work on it. Both should be at JordyToons as well.

WILL THERE BE MERCH?

Yes! I'll be releasing a soundtrack and hopefully more than 1 T-Shirt design. Expect it more during the release of the series though. I would love to make plushies but $$$.

WHEN IS IT COMING OUT???

Sometime next year.

My account has been quiet over the past couple of months because I've been working this mini series! I recently just got the thumbnail board done, music/voice overs recorded and character designs. It's a story about a grumpy father and an energetic affectionate daughter as they climb a mountain to reach a wishing well. It will have some video game references as well! Seems like the logical next step from my video game parodies. :P Kind of got carried away when drawing the scooter, it doesn't come to life or anything in the series haha Although the series will have more a goofy tone like my recent work but there's still a little bit of drama towards the end!
