the work of indie filmmaker & 2D animator Matt Bruneau-Richardson 🎬🧜♀️🎞 Currently producing “Sirenetta: Part-Time Mermaid” indie animated feature film
This past week has motivated me to get myself out there when it comes to voice acting, mainly because if the podcast isn't gonna get me away from this warehouse job, maybe I can creatively express myself with some fun voices & acting. I've always wanted to get myself out there, better now than never

Coincidentally, they announced the English cast yesterday and it is STACKED. Anything with Nicole Byer in it is going to be gold 🤩

Jim Queen premiered at Cannes, one of the most competitive film festivals to get into in the world, but it’s gay so of course YouTube has decided it’s bad. Not cuz it’s gay though, for TOTALLY unrelated reasons I’m sure.
Im beginning to see an uptick in content-slop channels taking jabs at Indie Animation, disguising itself as critique when all they got is raggin on GLITCH and Vivziepop. These're are just a sampling of my favorites, all ongoing, all different styles and all needing your support.
"the problem with Indie Animation " Has only watched 5 popular indie shows. " I don't want indie animation to make me cringe " " I want more indie animation " Only showcases 5 popular indie shows you don't like.
We’ve got a great thing going with indie animation - but there’s a lot of incredible lesser-known talents out there, outside of your Glitch and Spindlehorse shows. The cool thing about indie stuff is it can come from anyone and anywhere; you just gotta look for it and share what you love.

Watching what felt like the entire internet rip an indie animated film to shreds just for being low budget, “cringey,” and queer really freaked me out this week. I couldn’t help but think that the same reaction is inevitable for my movie, and that honestly terrified me.
A week from today I start submitting my mermaid movie set in PTown to film festivals, so I decided to take a break from that stress to enjoy mermaids in PTown
just heard the first bits of our Audio Mix!

I’ve been pretty quiet lately, hard at work on getting Sirenetta ready for festival submissions, so there’s nothing new for #IndieAnimationDay, however… I DID just make my first indie animated series public to watch again! 5683 was a web show I made back in high school, just a short…17 years ago ☠️
5683: Premier Episode! ~ Two Cupids are 2676

Some heartbreaking animation news today from people who have been some of my animation heroes. It’s up to us to hold the line and build a better future for animation.
I wish I was surprised but it’s 2026 so of course well respected animators are making AI shows while saying “no no, it’s okay when I do it, I PROMISE”
I need someone to explain how eliminating jobs brings jobs back just… math wise
