FLYING BARK IS NOT GONE: about the trailer animation

PLEASE DO NOT SPREAD THE IDEA THAT FLYING BARK WAS REPLACED.

THIS IS FALSE.

Flying Bark made the decision to outsource additional animation, this includes things like trailers and promos- not the actual show. this decision was made because Flying Bark is also currently working on the upcoming animated ATLA movie, and they needed to lessen their workload. Flying Bark is still handling the animation of the actual episodes and specials, they just needed some breathing room and got that by giving some of the less important responsibilities- like promos and trailers- to someone else for the time being.

the animation isn't even bad, there's no need to act like this is the end of the world and start acting like everything will be changed forever. though I will give some of ya'll the benefit of the doubt and say you probably didn't know these details, but we shouldn't have jumped to conclusions anyway.

edit: there is a post saying that Wildbarin has a deal for two seasons + specials of LMK, this was a misread, the site this info was taken from was mentioning the already existing content for LMK on Amazon Kids+. the deal wildbrain was, again, for the additional animation. Please do not harass this blog if you see the post however.

SPREAD THE WORD

I'm awake now lol, i'm gonna say my piece and i think im done talking about the animation for season 5 till anything new comes up.

WildBrain

WildBrain

WildBrain is the world’s leading independent kids’ content company, owner of Teletubbies, Degrassi, Caillou, Yo Gabba Gabba!, Inspector Gadg

This is the new studio that's working with the LMK team to make LMK. They are a good studio. They've made genuinely good shows with entertaining and fun animation. It isn't shown here, but they've also worked on Ninjago. Sonic prime's animation was amazing and so much fun to watch.

But that's the thing, each of their shows are either 3D or puppet 2D.

Puppet. 2D

that's why the season 5 trailer looks so off-putting. Because their specialty IS NOT 2D HAND DRAWN ANIMATION.

They are a genuinely good studio with well-made series, but LMK is not something within their specialty. LMK has been a show with dynamic and stylized animation, the animators curated over each new season.

This feels disrespectful af. and no I don't mean wildbrain.

Lego is the problem. Whoever the fuck is in charge of choosing studios, handling the budget. All of that stuff.

This is highly unprofessional and disrespectful to the show and to animation in general. This studio is not equipped to handle the style of LMK. This is the reason why it looks so...off. In my opinion, it's not even up to par to the average animated kids show because how of unequipped they are to handle LMK's style.

I've been hearing about budget cuts, strikes, and I genuinely hope that whatever is happening on the side we don't see gets sorted out for the better of the animators. honestly, they could have chosen a NUMBER of other animation studios that while they might not have been exactly the same...wouldn't be what we have.

it's okay to be disappointed in the animation. But please don't harass or blame the animators. This is the result of bad choices by leadership.

So if you're going to say anything. Please continue to show support for the show. Don't drop it because of the bad animation. That won't do shit. It'll just make things worse.

Continue to show support but go after Lego. Question Lego and their choices. Not the animators. They did their best with what they had after being handed a show with a style that they were not equipped to animate. Go after Lego.

so regarding the animation of the trailer, keep in mind that Sean Schemmel (VA of Sun Wukong) said that a different studio will be working on it and not Flying Bark. So please bear with the show

Its not even finished yet, just bear with it

O_O...

GUYS, GUYS, GUYS, GUYS-

THIS IS REAL!

THIS IS NO JOKE!

THIS IS OFFICIAL!

LOOK AT THIS TRAILER!!! OwO;

(The animation, tho. :/)

im obsessed with them, your honor

anyways, your girl Alex, as usual, being a bit of a jackass.

i added a spider bracelet on her cuz i still get reminded of the ship between her and syntax which will be named soon :3.

Shes trying her best to cope, shes not really ready for another "adventure that will result in another 'near-end-of-the-world' crisis" .w.

Ah quit whining, Ayla. I know you're tired of being dragged into new adventures, but you've survived much worse, so I'm sure you'll be fine in LMK Season 5 (..I think-). -w-

A simple rough sketch of this poor Janitor Girl wearing new clothes (I suck at clothes, as well as tears, LOL) inspired by the LMK S5 poster, I ain't sure if I should color this one, I don't want to make any promises. .w.

Not exactly happy with the results, but I wanted to at least upload one sketch before I go to bed. -u-;

Can confirm, im one of the people who makes the adult jokes, but we ignore that FBSHHESJJEAHDHHSHHAA.

But other than that, we're all a nice community!!

Hello! Asking this anonymously cause I'm a socially awkward coward lol. Is there any age limit or anything to join the discord server? I’m 17 and wanting to make more LMK friends so I just wanted to go ahead and check before I joined! Didn’t want to join and then have to leave immediately, y'know?

There is no required age or age limit on the server- We got a rule stating that no adult content/talk is allowed though.

The server does tend to occasionally drop hints of adult jokes, but that only ever happens when people are going feral and are simping for a character. Though, usually those bits are censored and are rather funny.^^

edit 2: it has been alleged that Wildbrain has been given a 1-2 year deal for two seasons + a special per leaked "legal documents" from Flying Bark, and I may have been wrong in the above edit. this has yet to be confirmed, if it comes out as true then I will be removing this post, so far I have seen nothing but the misread website however. that being said if it is true, FLYING BARK IS STILL SET TO RETURN ONCE THAT DEAL IS FINISHED. but be warned, my word is not law, and I'm not infallible.
