It’s #IndieAnimationDay! Staving off the animation industry crash, I’m focusing my creative energies in 2026 into making a new short film. It’s called “The Twig Gatherer” about a little bird just trying to make a home. Ramping up a crowdfund early next year to hire folks to help me make it.

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 Just over a week ago, this stunning #IndieAnimation pilot celebrated its 1-year anniversary; a pilot which you're recommended to watch, and if you already have, watch again. Atlas and the Stars is a genuine delight, for more reasons than we can fit on a short thread. (🧵1/6)

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 We're only a few days into 2025, and DeepBlueInk has already hit the ground running with an #IndieAnimation series that you should definitely watch. Deep Space Discounts, produced almost all by himself, took over a year to get to where it is now, and it shows... (🧵1/5)

Get a feel for the world of #Plinkoandmark with the official soundtrack! Thank you for 500,000 views on the pilot, and happy #indieanimationday !

Second on @newgrounds.com TODAY! Thank ya'll so much for voting for us!

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 If you're new to #IndieAnimation and hungry for some action, why not check out PxAY OFF? Undoubtedly one of this year's finest work in the scene, this mature short pushes the boundaries of cartoonish expressions to create a brilliant comedic action rollercoaster. 👇 (🧵1/4)

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 Looking for something bingeable and fun to watch? Well, 'Broats' is the #IndieAnimation series for you. Created by industry animator Jack Cusumano, this series once featured in Nickelodeon's Animated Shorts Program, and continues an impressive run in the indie scene. (🧵1/3)👇

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 Just an example of how hard work often gets hidden by the algorithm. How well do you know 9Hammer? A Newgrounds veteran, solo animator, maker of FIVE #IndieAnimation series totalling over 2 hours of animation? Because they are someone we strongly recommend to you. (🧵1/3)

“The portal will open soon…” ✨ Our #IndieAnimationDay livestream with @dyadshow.bsky.social is happening TODAY at 1 PM PST on our YouTube page (🔗 below)! See you then! #IndieAnimation

If Wisdom Nunn could create an #IndieAnimation series at 14, then so can you; it's possible! 🌟 Now 19, this up and coming self-taught artist & solo animator is celebrating the 4th anniversary of his series, Bob's World. Maybe he could inspire you too... Massive congrats! 🥳

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 Sometimes, great #IndieAnimation series slip through the cracks unwillingly. So this #TakeoverTuesday on Newgrounds, we are strongly recommending you to watch The Infinimart, a chaotic, hilarious original series by Chris Bak. Here's what you're in for... (🧵1/6) 👇

📰RECOMMENDATION 📰 We shouted this out yesterday on Newgrounds, and today we strongly recommend you watch CAPSULES by the very talented Shemmet. Released in 2024, it packs a lot of action, heart, and gorgeous animation into a 5-minute #IndieAnimation short which you can't afford to sleep on 👇 (1/5)

My episode of @postmodartpod.bsky.social is out for #indieanimationday I said it already but I was more vulnerable than I've been on a pod in awhile besides my own. I spoke about my journey in animation and the creation of my Indie pilot with so many kind people. Hope you enjoy

King Cockroach, aka @bossbugkc.bsky.social:

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 Murder Drones. Digital Circus. Gaslight District. And now, Knights of Guinevere. There's no stopping GLITCH. With 3 consecutive hits, KOG is the newest addition to their large #IndieAnimation arsenal that we STRONGLY recommend you watch. Here's 5 reasons why, a 🧵👇 (1/7)

📰 RECOMMENDATION 📰 @waebakstudios.bsky.social have been unstoppable with their #IndieAnimation series, Falling Upward; A chilled slice of life series with a 90's/00's aesthetic to match. Check out the series and #SupportIndieAnimation! #IndieAnimationDay www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0NL...

I worked w/ @daresiel.com & probably a couple dozen other talents over the last year or so to turn their Twitch channel into a mostly live, interactive anime series with episodic content. I was responsible for most if not all animated material you see. #IndieAnimationDay #indieanime

I posted about the Litterbox Pilot recently for #AnimationDay, so here's something a bit different for #IndieAnimationDay! Before working on the Litterbox Pilot, our producer, Ross (from Pencilmation fame), created a show called Gil Next Door, which just got a trailer! youtu.be/w2BR-sKHMlQ?...

📰 RECOMMEDATION 📰 An #IndieAnimation team we've been most excited about is MAKE Visual. With plenty of industry experience, they've recently charted their own path and begun making indie animations. Our favourite series from them, House On The Outlands, is one we recommend you! 📷: Make Visual
