​That's right, the long wait is almost over! We're pleased to announce that on Thursday, May 14th at 7 pm CST Episode 1 of PlotQuest will be released! Even if you were at the pre-release screening at Archon, there'll be plenty new to see. The final episode features an additional minute of animation and a brand new ending.

You're invited to chat with the animators and voice actors at the live premiere on YouTube. We'll be sending out a link in the next few days.

Thank you for sticking with us on this long journey and we hope to see you at the premiere!

Production on the additional scenes is going well. We have all the dialog recorded (big thanks to Anna, Saku, and Paul the quick turn around) and have started clean-up and color on some scenes. Here are a couple of our favorite stills from the new sequence. It's all coming together!

Thanks again to everyone who came out to our panel at Archon, we had a great time! The pre-release screening went well, we got a lot of wonderful feedback. It’s great to know we’re on the right track and that people enjoy episode 1.

 After having a moment to step back and look at it critically however, we realized that the ending was a little weak, so we’ve decided to extend the episode slightly to make it as strong as it can possibly be. Of course, that has kept us plenty busy. At this point, the storyboards are complete, and dialog is being recorded. We’re looking forward to cutting the animatic together this week and then it’s down to animating. I know it’s a bit frustrating to delay the release, but we want to make sure this thing is as solid as it can be before we put it out there.

In the meantime, we have a surprise in store in the coming weeks so stay tuned!

It’s been a while! Apologies for the radio silence these past few weeks. We’ve been incredibly busy putting the finishing touches on lip-sync and animation. We’re pleased to announce that we’re nearing the finish line! Our plan is to release episode 1 in October so stay tuned for an official date. In the meantime, here are some screenshots of what the finished show will look like.

​A huge “thank you” to everyone who sent in auditions for PlotQuest, we’re all really excited to hear your work! We’re having our casting meeting this Thursday, so you should hear something back by the end of this week/ early next week.

All the background art is completed for episode 1. Here’s a look at a few backgrounds Pltnm06Ghost and Tommy Benoist created (back from before Chelsea joined the party).

​We're doing a little bit of a late update this time due to the holiday. First off, here's a look at Taylor's process for creating the lovely backgrounds for the PlotQuest webcomic. As you can see, they're coming along nicely. Keep up the good work, Taylor!
