Maxwell Atoms, the creator of Billy & Mandy has a Kickstarter up to help fund his new webseries, Dead Meat! There’s only 48 hours left to help fund this project.

I’ve stressed on here before the importance of backing creator owned shows and independent films – and this is a project you don’t want to miss out on being able to support.

The industry is changing, and this is where it’s at. I know a lot of people who follow this blog are animation students, and artists themselves and you might all end up finding yourselves in this same spot; I know I will! We’re all very creative people, and the Hollywood system necessarily isn’t. And when studios aren’t willing to take a chance on our creative abilities and ideas – we’ll have to go through other routes to get things made.

Kickstarter is a wonderful platform, and when guys like Maxwell Atoms come along and need help raising funds to get a project like Dead Meat off the ground, you better believe I’m gonna do what I can to help out.

There’s only two days left for the Dead Meat Kickstarter to raise almost $17,000. I feel like a Televangelist asking for money, but if everyone who follows this blog gave $2.00, the project would be funded. And at least we know that Maxwell Atoms won’t run away with the money and build a giant mansion in Texas. Instead, we’ll get a quality-bad ass web series with puppets and violence, who doesn’t want that??

Head on over to Kickstarter to find out more on Dead Meat.
