Creature Caster Masters

The world of creatures is a strange and interesting place. Join Justin Beatum and his pal Tun-Tun as they battle their way to the top and fight to become Creature Caster Masters!

After looking at the credits I see you did most of the work solo other than some of the voices. I know that animation is a long time consuming process. So I wonder if you would be able to animate a ~5 minuet video every week.

Well to be honest, it did take about 3 weeks to create this episode from start to finish, but a large chunk of the work was pre-producing things, backgrounds, characters, music, so I don't actually have a good estimate as to how long it would take to make an episode, or how frequently I could release them. However, if I were to win, I may just either hire another animator on, or perhaps update every other week (as Unforgotten Realms did early on) until I got my footing. Good question by the way, I was wondering if someone would bring that up.

Love the animation style.

I agree with the earlier comments about it needing a bit more polish and I'm a bit concerned that most pokemon jokes have been done already, that said it was still awesome...

Well I'm glad you liked it, though future episodes wouldn't focus on Pokemon so much. My goal with this is to parody the things I grew up on, and that was video games, card games and anime's such as Yugioh, Pokemon and Digimon. I'd definitely delve more into parodying a broader range of things if I were to continue, this episode just happened to be more Pokemon focused.

Ha, I almost forgot about his apron. I probably should have made it more clear. It says: "Kiss the Floating Pink Thing."

Loving this, and loving the mix of pokemon and yu-gi-oh, two of my all time favourites! Really funny. I almost feel sad that i only found out about this yesterday, so my voting will sadly be cut short!

Remember to do BeyBlades at some point :D

And I really hope you win, this is my favourite one of all, but will you still continue it if you don't?
Ha, I forgot about Beyblade, I'm sure sometime down the road I'll poke fun at beyblade to some degree, don't worry about that.

In reference to your question though, I honestly don't think I'll be able to continue this series if I don't win. As Eric the Orange mentioned, animation takes a long time, being able to produce this series at a regular pace would basically take about the same amount of time as having an actual job, so there's no way I'd be able to just do this in my free time and be able to pump out episodes consistently.

Thanks for the question and your support. Just know that, if I don't win, this isn't the last you'll see of me.

It moved a little slow, but it was really funny and well done. Best moment: "Weakness: Drain"
