Ask Me Anything ~ Special Guest Edition Hi Reddit, Mike McMahan, Joe Chandler and Giancarlo Volpe of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+ here. Ask Us Anything!

Hi reddit, I’m Mike McMahan, co-creator and executive producer of the new animated show GOLDEN AXE on Paramount+! (It’s weird to put an exclamation point after a + but here we are.) This is a great season: an epic quest with mighty characters from Sega’s Golden Axe games. And it's funny! Previously, I was the creator/showrunner and executive producer of Star Trek: Lower Decks, co-creator and co-showrunner of Solar Opposites, and once upon a time I was a writer/ showrunner on Rick & Morty. My career started off as a production assistant at Drawn Together and at South Park. I’m down to talk about Golden Axe and all this nerdy stuff, so AMA!

Hey Reddit! I'm Joe Chandler. I'm the co-creator and showrunner of the new series Golden Axe based on the SEGA Genesis game. Growing up a SEGA kid, working on this show has been a dream come true. Before Golden Axe, I worked on over 200 episodes of American Dad in various roles including writer, producer, and executive producer. Ask me anything!

Hello reddit! I’m Giancarlo Volpe and I’m the Supervising Producer / Director of Golden Axe on Paramount+! Previously I’ve was a director on Avatar the Last Airbender, Star Wars the Clone Wars, and Star Vs The Forces of Evil.  I’ve also produced/ supervised/ and/or Executive Produced lots of other shows, including The Boys Diabolical, Green Lantern the Animated Series and The Dragon Prince. Basically I’ve made a lot of animation, and I’m excited to talk about Golden Axe or anything else! Ask away!

We’ll be back tomorrow at 12pm ET/9am PT to answer any of your questions!!

I've worked on this short punch animation for so long that I can't tell if it's OK or dog shit anymore. Any feedback is welcomed!

I want to try doing a thing where instead of pretty much only working on big or medium sized animation projects, I instead make an effort to publish one animation and one illustration a month. I still definitely want to work on the bigger things, but it gets kind of boring always working on something but never finishing something.

If you didn't know, Blender has a powerful, free vector 2D animation system called Grease Pencil. The new 5.3 update redesigns the drawing workflow—letting you select and tweak strokes, carve cutouts, and mirror the canvas without leaving draw mode.

Question What's your favourite bit of animation history trivia?

• Upvotes

I think mine is that John Hubley, the guy who walked out of Disney and founded UPA because he greatly disliked how 'real' Disney animation was becoming, was the original animation director on Watership Down but was basically fired from the project as his vision was way off the mark for the director, but his work is still present as the beginning 'fable' of the film, which explains why it's so abstract compared to the relative realism, ironically, of the rest of the film.

(Also, most British animated feature films, such as The BFG, Animal Farm and Watership Down, were worked on by animators who were trained by ex-Disney animator David Hand, which is why they all look 'Disney-fied')
