Hey everyone! We're back with another Surf & Turf Wars pt. 1 storyboard MEGAPOST. We worked hard on them, so it's great to be able to share with our creative community. We hope they provide some insight into how Eddsworld gets made...
Look out for more extras coming soon, including WIP shots and boards from Zombeh Picnic. - EW Team

Welcome to a Surf & Turf Wars storyboard MEGAPOST!
We put a LOT of effort into the pre-production on Surf & Turf Wars (both parts!), including hiring dedicated storyboard artists. Vic Hill, Lauren Kisich, and co-director Andy Clift all contributed to these incredibly detailed layouts.
We've shared a gallery of storyboard pages here from scenes 1, 2 and 9 (the monster transformation) that highlight a variety of different shot types. Those of you with an interest in...

We reached 200 patrons and we couldn't be more thankful for the support of each and every one of you. All of your pledges go right back into production for future videos and projects.
We previously asked what you guys would like to see and so many of you mentioned educational content and animation tips. For this milestone reward, we created a downloadable .pdf of 10 Things Every New Animator Should Remember which was put together by the co-writer and d...

Hey Eddheads! It's been a long and hard journey, but our new Eddisode is finally here! You can watch Surf & Turf Wars pt. 1 on YouTube.
The production on this one has taken longer than expected, but seeing the result is worth it. This is the first Eddsworld episode released in 4K. It's also one of the longest videos on the channel. We've raised the consistency and quality of the animation compared to...

Not long now til the release of Surf & Turf Wars pt. 1, and last week we released this short teaser and update video! It contains an extended version of a scene from the Eddisode, an ad for 'Cold Cola' that the guys see on TV in the opening scene.
We love recording with Stefan, the sultry voice of the ad, so much that we gave him a much longer script that needed. Then we liked it so much we decided to make a minute-long version, even though in the episode we only get about ...

HELLO PATRONS! It's almost time for the new video, and to get you hyped we wanted to share a significant chunk for you to see!
This is one whole minute from near the beginning of the new video, Surf & Turf pt. 1. Edd and the gang are on holiday, looking for some fun in the sun. What could go wrong? This has temporary SFX, no music, and no mixing.
Watch this space! The new video is 95% finished and should be out in 2-3 weeks! - EW Team

Hi everybody!
This week we announced that we'll be transitioning the official EW Discord server to Patreon-only. That means if you're reading this, you'll be able to access everything on our server and interact with all the new stuff we have lined up!
We're doing this for a number of reasons. Mainly, it's about safety and responsibility. We take our duty to the community seriously, and we also have a duty to our mods, curators, and team members... Right now we don't feel like we'r...

We have been VERY hard at work this year on our most ambitious video yet. Here's a small gallery of work-in-progress backgrounds from our two newest background artists, Ana Palomino and Millie Hughes. They've been doing amazing work!
We're improving the quality of our backgrounds in a big way and hiring dedicated background artists has been part of that. Finding the balance between what feels like Eddsworld but also had a more premium and consistent quality ...

Our latest comic strip is one of our stupidest yet and we love it. You might not realise from looking at it, but the team actually had a very big conversation about the design of Tom's donkey friend... Here's a gallery of how the design progressed, starting more realistic and them becoming a bit more cartoonish and EW-style. WIPs by our amazing lead animator, Jon Lopez.

Hey Eddheads! Here's a small gallery from two recent comic strips, Fine Cuisine and Holy Cow. You can see how our comics evolve and how the sketches or pitches differ from artist to artist. For example: the last panel dialogue for Cuisine was changed a few times before we landed on something we loved.

It's all change at Eddsworld HQ this week! We're doing some much-needed expansion, and as part of that we're moving from Discord to Microsoft Teams for our work. Boring, I know. Very adult. But it gives us a chance to look through all the channels we'll be archiving and share stuff with you. Time to answer some questions you never knew you had.
For instance, what do the team listen to when they're working? We have a music channel for sharing links with each oth...

Hey Eddheads! It's your turn to suggest what we draw for Instagram!
Post in the comments underneath an idea for an Instagram Original, and we'll choose a few of our favourites to get drawn. This could be a simple scenario, like 'the gang riding dinosaurs', or a couple of characters interacting that we don't see very often, like Larry or Chester.

Hey everyone!
Here's a Patreon exclusive, a detailed pre-production animatic for our Christmas video Slippery Slope.
As you'll see, by this point it already had quite a lot of detail at key moments, even a couple bits of coloured animation. We also timed this animatic out, which means there are on-screen counters for the shot number, length of shot, and overall timecode. This helps a lot when you have multiple animators a...

We are absolutely delighted with the response to Slippery Slope so far. Your comments, shares, and likes made the Christmas holidays even more special.
We're going to share several behind the scenes posts about the short. Here's the first one, a bumper gallery of concept art!
The first image is Fran's original concept art for the girls in their snow gear, followed by individual character concepts by Jon. Jon drew Tequila (their cat, based on another real world ...
