Super Zeroes Episode 3 - this is gross! + Post Credits Scene
Welcome to “Super Zeroes''. In a world full of superheroes, this animated web series follows a group with less than marketable superpowers who are unappreciated by the mainstream. Let’s just say they won’t ever be getting a call from Marvel’s Avengers or DC’s Justice League. Feeling inadequate, our characters meet in a mental health support group and find comfort through this unlikely group of misfits. This is my homage to Goonies / Bad News Bears / The Replacements, with a dash of Fight Club (the support group part anyway). It’s a 10 year old idea of mine finally made possible with the help of A.I.

***There’s an extra scene after the credits of every episode.
Episode 3: Teat Skeet
When The Threader and Timeborg have a tiff during a group session, The Threader’s “teat skeet” gets splashed around and Sploojy takes a trip outside. In the after-credits-scene, we hear a cautionary tale about the powers-sharing app: Suber.

We shot 5 episodes on the BlackMagic Pocket 6K Pro and here are the first 4! I call it a single-camera animated comedy. The animation process took me 14 months to complete and the budget for the entire release was $291.00.
I utilized an animation process called “rotoscoping” and used an A.I. program called EbSynth to help speed up the process (I saved over 8 years of work!). It’s an A.I. that requires you to help the machine learning process; I still had to hand draw over 5000 keyframes to teach the AI. Tutorial videos coming soon so you can learn to make your own cartoons!
