Fred & Earl is a new animated web series about a couple of birds that live in Brooklyn, NY.

Hello friends and supporters!

In college I had this idea to start a animated web series call Fred & Earl.

The backstory: Fred and Earl both graduated from college together and are now roommates. Fred is a chicken with a full time job working at a law firm, and Earl is a plaid penguin in his 3rd year of a 2 year graduate program. In the past I've gotten to work on some really cool projects with some really cool people. Now it's time to try something of my own. I've include the first episode in my pitch video, but if funded, the official home of all future episodes will be located at http://FredandEarl.com My goals are: I would like to finish the 2nd episode ( it's about 75% done) and start the 3rd ( a much longer episode ). I already have the script written for the 3rd episode.

Making a animated web series is expensive.

This is where you come in: Forget about the amount of time it takes to do pre-production, funding this project will help pay for animators, background artists, and sound/music recording.

Your support comes with prizes! These include special behind the scenes access, mini button packs, a series DVD, hand drawn portraits, or even letting you voice an animated character in episode 3!

With your support you will help full-fill a dream of mine to have my very own web series.

If successful, future episodes will be dreamed up by viewers submitting topics or situations for Fred and Earl to interact in.

Thanks so much for your support

Sincerely, -Lee
