# About me
As a kid I always loved to draw. The endless possibilities of the imagination fascinate me. I want to inspire kids and the kid at heart with my art. After earning my BFA and MFA in animation, I formed David McBride Animation to see that goal through.I am a fan of many things TMNT, Power Rangers, Avatar TLA, Star Wars, most things 90s etc...

It is a hard thing to do.
A tv series, that sounds cool. Are you a writer?

I am, and I do some character sketching as well, but these days, I'm stuck job searching.
You've probably heard of Danny Phantom, well, I've developed a literally Spiritual Sequel to it, and I hope it can bring back the golden age of storytelling in animation.
buuuut, as I'm sure you're well aware, you need connections to even get close to the doors of the industry. but being a Mid-westerner, that's impossible.

It is a difficult industry. But keep trying. If you love it keep pursuing it and you will be a success.
If you'd like to see some of my animation work you can check out my Facebook page m.facebook.com/DavidMcBrideAniβ¦ or YouTube channel m.youtube.com/channel/UC_F2oPSβ¦

oh I have been trying, but when the best shot you have happens to be your inspiration, but also happens to have an inferiority complex, AND the next chance is a great shot, only he's a voice actor and that's pretty low on the industry rungs.

Thats a shame but there is never only one chance. One of the first times I met with a client it was exciting because they were a pretty big company but it didn't work out because they didn't want to pay want it costs to produce animation. Its was a real downer but they were very nice and I learned to just take a day and come back fresh. Β Β

Johnny-Spectre In reply to DavidAnimated [2015-10-07 00:21:51 +0000 UTC]
true... *sigh* it's just frustrating. I have pretty much no legs to stand on and any chance that looks possible is barred from me because of monetary limitations.

Try promoting yourself on social media. Website, Linkedin, etc... My best advice would be to create a project. In your case, maybe write a book. I don't know what you like to write but that could be a good start. If you promote it yourself around town first, it won't cost much. It would take time to do so but it would at least be getting yourself out there. When I put out my children's book I went to a local library with book authors from my area. It was small and not a great turnout but one thing lead to another. Every time you go out and meet people you are networking and that can lead to jobs. Β

Yeah, I did a similar thing with a Writers group, but that didn't help any...
I'm just... paranoid that someone will steal my work.

When you've completed a project, before you put it out there, send it to the library of congress copyright office. Β www.copyright.gov/

technically, I only have the summary overview and character designs. I have the tidbits of specifics of the story in my head and will reveal them when the time is right.

Sadly, its potential reputation stateside was horribly scarred with Super MegaForce

DavidAnimated In reply to Johnny-Spectre [2015-10-04 01:25:23 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, it is a shame. It could've had so much potential. But I am glad Dino Charge is so good. I try to look at SS and PR as two completely different shows.

which has gotten difficult as of late.
*sigh* sometimes I wish it was easy, but like my tv series idea... too many roadblocks ughhhh.

Hello David took your advice from a while back XD I think I did alright. But could be making the same mistakes again.

So sorry for the super late response but I haven't been on devianart in months. Was this from an animation you were working on?

TatoDragon In reply to DavidAnimated [2015-08-31 19:39:52 +0000 UTC]
It's fine and yeah, I'm working on a short as of now. But looking over the thing I mentioned earlier, saw something I needed to fix. Not sure when this'll be complete.

DavidAnimated In reply to TatoDragon [2015-09-25 05:24:13 +0000 UTC]
Yeah it's hard. Animation is a very time consuming process especially when you are creating it by yourself. Just take it slow each little bit gets you closer to completing something.
If you like you can check out my animation page on Facebook search David McBride Animation. I post more of my animation work there. I am trying to get more involved on deviant art I forgot about it for a while.
