To make this project a reality, we're seeking $4000 AUD to cover the costs of animation and production.
I am a 1 man band (excluding some voice talents) I will be handling all the production myself so I need help afford basic living expenses during the creation process.
Your contributions will directly support:
- Animation and production costs: Ensuring top-notch quality for every frame of the series.
- Living expenses: Covering basic necessities like mortgage, bills, and food so I can fully focus on the project.
- Unique perks: Backers will receive exclusive rewards, including behind-the-scenes access, digital downloads, and even personalized artwork.
- Secure family time for me and my three daughters: Laylee, Alita, and Aura.

The world of Epic Minequest is vast and full of untold tales, and this animated series will shed light on one of its most intriguing characters (and maybe some others!)
Risks & Challenges
Transparency is key, so let's address the potential risks and challenges head-on. While creating an animated series is no small task - My track record speaks for itself. The only thing that has ever held me back with my animation/career has been...
Time Solution: I will never sacrifice time with my family. (obviously) That's the truth. Though now with the girls in day care 3 times a week and the help from my lovely wife. I'm now able to commit full time to this project (about 40-50 hours a week!) In the past this had been an issue where my wife and I had a shared responsibility to take care of the little ones in between us both working part time.
Finance Solution: [REAL TALK] YouTube has always been such a risky business (especially in animation). Some months are great... some, well... Forced to borrow money for family.
Being a YouTuber is a luxury but sometimes I'm forced to take on freelance work.
When it comes to committing to large projects on YouTube it always feels like a gamble with my time - I find myself crossing fingers the videos are well enough received, get enough views just to cover the hours spent in production. In the past before I was married this was okay but now it's not just me that suffers the failure it's my family too!
This campaign reduces that risk to ZERO and allows me to make what YOU the supporters want. Without the financial strain I'm able to focus on bringing you the best production possible!
