The writer/director in question being me. Bear with me here.

I have a dream. Well, a project anyway - I’m writing a story, done as ~20 - 25 minute scripts. I really would like to make a serious attempt at getting it made as an “animated series”, but how?

Obviously, no studio is going to pick it up. But, with the abundance of computing and video rendering power available these days, I can’t believe there isn’t a community out there devoted to just this sort of thing. I’ve tried [www.machinima.com](http://www.machinima.com), but that place seems kind of dead.

So how bout you dopers? You guys know everything!! Know of any online communities that can help me commit my fabulous, brilliant, engaging, timeless story to celluloid (or at least videotape)?

Thanks in advance.
