Support indie animation! @/studioflimpo is releasing the trailer and crowdfunding campaign for their upcoming indie animation pilot MANDELBROT HALL today! I’m super excited to see how the studio grows!

HELLO TUMBLRVERSE!

This is Studio Flimpo (FINALLY) broadcasting to your dashboard!

You may know us from our Insta/Tiktok/Twitter, but we figured it was about time we broke into the Tumblr sphere! If you don't know us, hi! We're Studio Flimpo, an independent animation studio founded by Reid Sandlund, Ren Abueg, and Milo Ferguson out of our basement!

We hope you stick around, cause we're gearing up for production of the pilot for our new series MANDELBROT HALL. You can view the trailer HERE:

That's all for now, flimpos! See you soon!

Indie Animations I Recommend

Haven’t posted in a while since, as I have said, my Apple Pencil broke and I haven’t been able to work on commissions or that one hazbin hotel animation… which I was actually getting through for once. Also I have fallen into a Varian And The Seven Kingdoms obsession.

Anyhow I shall now take the chance to share a couple indie animations I’ve watched/been watching recently possibly with a brief note about what kind of audience would enjoy it (might not be accurate I dunno)

First and foremost The Epilogue Of Endings which released approximately 12 hours ago as of when I’m writing this. And just before I summarise anything I just want to praise this pilot for HOW AMAZING IT IS DESPITE ITS SMALL BUDGET! The animation is fantastic and I swear something about it makes me so happy. The art style is also amazing (in my opinion) and suits the character designs perfectly. I love the character designs, just saying, and the voice acting is superb. I think my favourite designs from it are Blu (because I mean the mask and metal arms are pretty damn cool) and the ————. I won’t say who they are because the reveal is too good to miss, but you might be able to guess who I’m talking about if you’ve watched it.

Now to say what happens. This takes place after the sun ya know, goes. I think I’m probably the most interested by what exactly is going on with Mole but I think my favourite character thus far is Blu. I suggest you go watch it, it’s very cool. I think if you like Indie animation in general then this is a good pic due to its indie feel (positive). Also would suggest to people who enjoy slightly creepy media (it’s not that creepy in my opinion but it does feature the downfall of humanity and what happens after the sun dies so it’s slightly unsettling, it masters that feeling).

And here’s their Kickstarter

We also have Dreamworld which also has a season 2, I’m just linking the first one though so just so you know you can find the second season on the channel. As said by the creator, it borrows certain tropes/aspects from analogue horror and has animatronics. As it says up there it is a sci-fi horror series that is intended to be accessible to younger fans of the genre. Again, I love the story and the character designs. So far, my favourite character and character design belongs to THE Star Light. I’m starting to see a theme with me liking sun/moon/star themed animatronics. I mean this guy has a BOW TIE and a charming smile. If I wasn’t already dressing up as Varian for Halloween then I think I would’ve looked into trying to dress as Star Light.

The pilot hasn’t released but the animation from this teaser is SO GOOD! I’m excited to see the pilot. There’s also been music/songs released by them, I can’t remember if I’ve gotten around to listening to any but I fully intend on doing so.

I’m sorry but how is the animation this good with only one person animating it (I might’ve gotten that wrong). I find the character designs really cool and the art style is fun. They’re in space. The voice acting is good. Also just gonna say, they have merch.

This is Dungeon Flippers, a fantasy real-estate cartoon following Maulie, a manticore. (I copied and shortened down the description of the YouTube channel)

The animation is great and the voice acting is really good. The story is interesting and The Ace Of Wands Theme is a joy to listen to every time.

I don’t know how to describe the plot but lemme just… the animation deserves praise, it suits the vibe of the pilot and the character designs are amazing. Voice acting is also fun and I’d recommend this even if it’s just sea side/coast vibes you’re looking for.

This one is a YouTube channel that posts OC animatics and has posted Sundrop and Moondrop animations, just saying I think they drew the Sun and Moon Q&A comics soooo that was my introduction to their work.

Just watch this and you will see some PEAK animation.

Again, the animation is awesome.

And that’s where the video limit comes, alas, but check it out. It’s by Meppity and has some really good paper looking animation.

And this is where we have the indie animated stuff (I consider it that at least) centred around pre-existing shows.

I myself am looking forward to making my own indie animated stuff or comics (I haven’t really decided, I’m just working on different characters whilst also writing fanfics and drawing fan comics and other art stuff on top of art homework. YAY

Here is one… dated… animation I did a year ago which took me a while.

https://youtu.be/jmteRdRgHWI?si=o-p-l9gheLSkw7Xr

It’s for an OC, but with their old design. The new design has a satchel, otherwise nothing changed to be honest. I also have done another animation which was far more rough but it was me animating whilst seeing who would win the election so it’s political and not about any of my ocs or any actual characters. As I said, I already have another animation in the works for Alastor so I have to wait till my Apple Pencil gets fixed or replaced to continue working on it.

hear me out: WE SHOULD BRING BACK THE TERM WEBISODES!

I’m as gen z as the next guy but I learned about things term through new kids on the rock (a mini webseries neil cicirega made in 2008) and WE SHOULD BRING IT BACK

call episodes of tadc, helluva boss, murder drones, welcome to dreamworld, ramshackle every indie webseries in general webisodes. It’s so cool

[hilariouslarry]

A crowdfunding project is currently live for this super cool animated pilot by Studio Flimpo (on YouTube). It's a comedy-horror series about art students called Mandelbrot Hall and it is made by a small queer-owned and operated indie studio. The trailer is currently public on YouTube and on this crowdfunding page. The cast also includes some special guests such as Weird Al! I think this project is really cool and it would be great if you could check it out and possibly back it as I have and/or share!

[toastedclownery]

Drew the mandelbrot hall cast while listening to their last backerkit stream! On model this time

@studioflimpo

Edit: bonus Milo Murphy reference

[all-hail-trash-prince]

Boy I sure do hope nothing bad happens to the cat in the show where everything disappears!

[nezumithewriter]

another one of "which of the fandoms i'm in is your favorite" but instead i'm describing scenarios from them

[ohheyaghost]

silly Mandelbrot hall art woah

My favorite characters Maven because he’s just like me fr (trans dude who wants to do movie based stuff)

[tosteur-gluteal]

GO CHECK IT OUT!!! This project sounds super duper cool and more people need to be aware of it

[sageourplanetmeow]

WATCH MOON GIRL AND DEVIL DINOSAUR

IT’S GREAT ESPECIALLY AT SEASON ONE’S FINALE I PROMISE YOU

PLEASE WATCH AND REBLOG THIS/ADVERTISE THE SHOW SO THAT SEASON 3 CAN GET GREENLIT

(Please we must prevent what happened to TGAMM, TOH, Ducktales and a bunch of other shows to happen to MGADD)

There’s also such clever writing in this show and the animation is creative and beautiful. The visual stuff is awesome. The fact that stuff have consequences and last and aren’t solved immediately means a lot. There’s some VERY powerful metaphors sprinkled in and the characters, their design and their VAs are fantastic and leave me wanting to see more of them after every watch.

Check out the tags cus I’m promoting more shows in there including ones that are already gone but oh well.

Oo imma also promote some indie shows in there.

[bumblefruit-ahhh]

WHEEEEE FUN FAN ART! FROM MANDELBROT HALL!

I’m sure a lot of people have seen this already, but Studiofilmpo (on yubtub and insta I think) is fundraising for their pilot. It looks amazing, and if you like indie animation, definitely check it out.
