Watchcat Pre-Production

We reported last week that our Watchcat eye logo was used in another person's Youtube video without our permission.
Since we are not a corporation like Disney or Dreamworks, it seems Youtube really can't do anything about it.

Hi WatchCat Films,

In the meantime, I am storyboarding 5 episodes of the next Watchcat series, you can see the first two as rough animatics if you click here. I'm concentrating on drawing up the storyboards frames to create a final version as an animatic. The animatics will all have final sound fxs and music. We hope to show them to see if we will be able to make a real animation series or just finish the animation the way we want it to look.

I really don't think I can devote all my time and effort animating these next episodes by myself. I discovered that the first two episodes, each about 3 minutes in length, took me a year to produce. And so, I am asking for an interested animators out there who know Toon Boom Harmony to email me at heyjimr@gmail.com. If you have time to produce a scene or two, perhaps you could use the final scenes in your animation portfolio.
