Sick Animation at iComFest

Sick Animation - iComFest questionnaire

E4's Fictional Emergency Comedy Commissioning Editor tries to put Sick Animation creator Marc M. through the one-minute pitch process, gently prompting him for answers...

So, start with one sentence that describes your programme; it's Alan Partidge time. Or “X meets Y in a death-match with Z”-type thing.

X meets Y in a death-match with Z

Er, okay. Well, expand with a brief summary of the programme, what’s funny about it, etc. - something that could be read out in under a minute.

Uhhhh… ok well there's this guy… and um, his uncle has a… FUCK, time's up!

Let's try something else. List the stars, etc. and what they’ve done before – keep it to no more than 100 words.

Brad Pitt… 's cousin's… neighbor… in law

We spell that "neighbour" in the UK. The final question was going to be about how your show would fit the future E4 comedy commissioning strategy but let's try something simpler. If you win the vote, explain how you’d like to develop the show...

Like a glove!!

It's probably easier if I do this for you. Sick Animation is an animated sketch show, created by University of Louisiana alumnus Marc M., which has been described as "very simple cartoon clips ripe with foul language and toilet and genitalia humor, almost always ending with a punch line of man-on-man erotic behaviour."

That's right. Watch some Sick Animation clips to get the idea

There's something else?

Oh, one other thing... we made a video game for one of the cartoons, "MERSHAQ". If you beat it you get a secret code to watch a hidden cartoon: http://www.sickanimation.com/mergame/
