On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

We take a look at B.O.O, an otherworldly animated film that DreamWorks cancelled when it was nearly complete.

Here's a piece I wrote a couple of years ago. I hope you enjoy it.

I wonder the same thing about Coyotte vs ACME. It's crazy to me how cancelling a movie nearly complete seems to be a better alternative to studios than just releasing it, somehow.

The closest we've got is this two and a half minute crew reel, which is all behind the scene's footage. From what you can see, I think they did a great job of bringing Loony Tunes to life. Warner Bros even went around trying to delete this footage as well.
