I’ve worked since I was sixteen for this.
I know, I know, I know… please don’t tell me that I don’t. I talk about a million ideas, I get side tracked, the ideas get shelved. But listen and believe. Just hear me out.
Are you ready? A cartoon that takes place in a haunted forest. And the episodes are about the characters in the forest.
Episode one: A depressive tree talks to his best friend, WHO IS A GHOST, about how at thirty four he’s working a dead end job. The tree talks openly about things like failure, friendship and ultimately hope. Ultimately hope.
The movies with the milk cartoon couldn’t cover enough ground. They couldn’t… with the animation, process, it’s my dream to just churn this stuff out. I want to write like a jazz musician. I just wanna create and then the episodes are out there.
Cause like it or not man, it takes a solid two months to create a milk carton’s little apartment. It’s fun, but this eagle’s gotta soar. I’ve gotta create what’s inside or I’m gonna die. I can’t tell you how many years I’ve searched for a medium where I can say what I really want to say. I feel like animation is cheap enough and quick enough that I can now do that.
Please don’t judge me. This is my dream…
I’ve got twelve pages drawn and written. That’s episode one. In the can. I don’t think it’s going to be very good, but I’ve never been more excited.
Next stop is HBO. After that, I pay the impoverished citizens of this country to run down the streets with gas cans. As the hopes and dreams of millions burn into the night, these cartoons will stand as a testament to… me not being a loser anymore.
Okay it might be a while before that happens.
