With all this drama about Glitch and how they’re treating their staff. I want people to be responsible on this and stay calm until Glitch or Kevin make a statement on this and not immediately go on a hate train, give it some time and hopefully everything will be cleared up

The situation is shitty, absolutely. But acting like Glitch killed their grandma will not help the situation 🫃

So it turns out there's some brewing controversy surrounding GLITCH and how its upper management has been overworking its employees. A lot of fingers are being pointed at current CEO Kevin, and while we don't have the entire story, it's become apparent that this studio might have to elect a new CEO to get its act back together, or risk damaging their reputation entirely.

We've already had to deal with mainstream animation companies mistreating their staff, we don't need indie studios doing the same.

#glitch productions #kevin lerdwichagul #the amazing digital circus #meta runner #murder drones #sunset paradise #smg4 #controversy #look i love murder drones and tdac as much as the next guy #but i also care about the well being of its staff #really hoping luke and kevin address this

Reunion

It's going amazingly

Melony forgot to show up for the photo and was fast asleep

Genuinely, it'd be cool to see an episode where SMG3 thinks it'd be a good idea to have a reunion with the Anti-Cast. Like, he sends out invites and spends a day with them that goes horribly wrong (cause they kinda all still hate him for the shit he pulled during the YouTube Arc-) but he ends up making mends with them

Why does Indie Animation lend itself to such intense discourse?

If I had to speculate from my own observations (feel free to call me out on an overgeneralizations), it would be that the harsh turn against any given indie project would be akin to a mother scolding a child with, "I expected this from your sibling but you?!"

See also the "We were rooting for you" gif often tossed around.

Indie Animation be it from a small studio or crowdfunded is seen as bypassing the hoops and hurdles of getting your foot in the door of the highly corporatized entertainment industry. With the likes of Disney or Nick or any given streaming service, creator driven projects are subject to the whims of the company who holds the IP.

And those whims are often to said IP's detriment. It'll more often than not be willfully neglected at best or treated as just something to fill a time slot or shove onto a streaming platform as "content." Enough may be allowed to flourish but their either uncerimoniously cut short at best or being dragged out as a franchise at worst.

To keep from going on about the whole Legend of Korra vs. Spongebob thing (I was there people, there was an LoK fandom believe it or not), indie animation has often been seen as small scale but also within the creator's general control since they control how long it goes or how it's written.

Many cartoons like Gravity Falls, Owl House and Amphibia have talked about trying to get their vision across while contending with a lot of Standards and Practices. Their story which had a "kids and adults alike" target audience would have the top brass insist on something more just for the former category.

While they find work arounds, often to stick their tongue out at the FCC, this can be a hard reminder of who has the final say despite it being what you want. Indie animation is seen as an answer to "What if Alex Hirsch didn't have to comprimise elements of Gravity Falls for the FCC?" or "What if Dana Terrence could just blaze her own trail with The Owl House with little to no notes?"

Especially when it comes to animation with queer characters. Animation made to be "fit for kids" have it tough enough even today but adult animation has to "play it for laughs" since comedies have been the defacto standard for that type of cartoon.

However... a show being creator driven or creative team driven comes as a double edged sword for the fandoms they form. Not all stories that play out across multiple episodes of varying lengths are going in the direction YOU might want to.

Creators might tire of a certain direction or formula and mix things up with things that come to mind almost on the spot. Even with a solid plan, the status quo will get a shake up that can and will alienate those who fell in love from episode one.

Indie Pilots spark the imagination something fierce. There's theories as to what any little detail could mean going forward and speculation on what a character's arc could be. These go wild because Fandom is all about the hypothetical, the unknown, the what could've/should've/would've been. Whole phenomenon would be dead in the water otherwise.

Thing is that not all theories will be proven right if any at all. The creators aren't mind readers and even if it isn't a legality like in corporate, they don't read fanfics if only because they don't want their vision to be totally compromised. Any good creator knows not to just give fans what they want. However... trampling over all these fanfics and theories makes it feel like any given fan had their "child" dragged into the streets to be shot.

A harsh phrasing but that's how a lot of fans act when continuing episode bump up against initial impression of this character or that storyline. It was their creation but new lore, new backstory or what have you is liable to override them. It's been an occupational hazard of being a member of fandom for ages yet it's become the center of a lot of discourse now more than ever. Say thank you to social media for creating such a combative environment everybody.

It's this... feeling of ownership that has existed in fandoms of other shows owned by corporations but amplied by the smaller scale of it, how creators seem more... approachable. And THIS is how the YouTube "critic" scene comes in to capitalize.

So... yeah.

Asique, después de ver varios Icebergs de Webseries y que ninguno me terminara de convencer, decidí hacer mi propio Iceberg de Webseries animadas.

Trate de organizarlos de las más conocidas a día de hoy a las más de nicho, dejando en último nivel los casos de Webseries que terminaron destacando sólo por la polémica que les aconteció. Obviamente habra faltado alguna (por lo que no estaría de más que alguien lo comentará) pero intente hacerlo lo más completo posible.

En un futuro planeo explicarlo como es debido pero de momento, dejaré por aquí la plantilla.
