I like to think of things that make me smile, then bundle up those smiles into silly, semi-violent, cartoon-shaped packages, and then give them to people over the internet! SMILES FOR ALL!!!

The Guards Themselves

Posted by WhiteLightning - September 14th, 2015


So about three years ago (egh, that seems way longer in writing), we started working on a web series / feature film called The Guards Themselves. At the same time, we pretty much stopped uploading things to Newgrounds. The scope of the project was ridiculously ambitious for a film school senior project, plus we were all graduating, finding jobs, and doing all that boring stuff you have to do to survive in society. We finished production on the film at the end of 2013, but there was still lot of work to do, and few people to do it. Eventually, I personally got really, really bored of not making anything new, and so set a goal of making one short video every week starting immediately after the success of our "Door Monster" video.

Now, in September of 2015, I am very proud to say that not only will we be reaching that goal, but that four of the videos make up the complete film that we started in 2012. It's finally done, and is going up on our Youtube channel during this month, and it's partially due to our amazing Kickstarter supporters, some of whom were directed to us by Tom Fulp and Newgrounds. The first two parts of The Guards Themselves are already out, and you can see them here:

 

My favorite thing about being done is that I can now, FINALLY, work on SOMETHING NEW! I'm so excited to start on something that I can spend longer than two days on again. I'm not sure if this means that I'll be getting back to regular animation ('back to"), but I am aiming to get A Fable III Experience done and released by NEXT MONTH, which will also be awesome.

So that's my update. If you've enjoyed my work here on Newgrounds, but didn't know I had a Youtube channel, you should go check it out. It's not animation, but it's very, very similar, especially in writing style, so who knows? Maybe it'll be to your liking.

The best of days to you all,

Kyle

That was quite funny though. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I was wondering where you'd ran off to.

Glad you liked it :)

Ever since the series this is what we get now

definitely cool to hear fable 3 come back
