Martian Candidate - where drunken hillbillies, power-hungry aliens, and ambitious politicians come together in a chaotic election!
Our animated comedy series brings together the wacky, colorful, and unpredictable in a story-driven, cartoony adventure.
We've been writing this series for years(!!), and we have hundreds of pages of script ready to go! Our story is vast, well-planned, and we're extremely excited to finally start sharing it with the world!
This project began life as a feature film script back in 2015 and has since been expanded upon and rewritten substantially - becoming an animated series. We're currently working on season one, but future seasons are already mapped out and partially written - our first season will likely be around ten episodes, though this could change.
Our main character, Earl Higgins, is an unassuming country guy who stumbles upon a vast interstellar conspiracy after witnessing a flying saucer crash.
Earl, along with our other characters, harbors hidden depths and connections that will surprise you. There's far more happening here than meets the eye. We’re starting small, and building to something big and different.
With Earl at the center, we explore themes of power, fame, idiocy, and the interconnectedness of it all. Our characters are ambitious, power-hungry, and foolish – to varying levels of success.
There’s a lot going on here.
We're amateur animators, but our strength lies in our story. This has led to a distinctive animation style that we hope adds a certain charm. We aim to make this visually interesting.
We are just two guys, Duncan and Johvani, living in different countries and time zones. We've been friends for years, and we carve out time for this project amid our real-life commitments. However, we'd love to be able to dedicate more time to it.
At the moment, we're a two-person operation, but we're eager to involve more people in the process. We believe that a diverse set of voices and skills will significantly benefit this project.
We're open to collaboration!
If you're an animator, voice actor, writer, producer, or have experience in animation, we'd be particularly eager to hear from you. But we're interested in anyone who might be able to help get this project off the ground.
