Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you! 🎄 This Christmas party is getting very crowded haha.

This year I added Sonic the Hedgehog 🦔 , paid respect to the classics like Wolfman 🐺 and Superman 🦸‍♂️ , finally got around to covering The Lost World dinosaurs 🦖 , did another colossal group Evolution with the Fantastic Four 🪨🔥🦸‍♂️🫥, tackled another monster Explainer with the Conjuring Demons 👹, and got maybe a little too weird with Silent Night, Deadly Night 🪓🎅 .

Overall I had a lot of fun with these videos and it seems most people liked them, although I may have gotten a little too niche with some of the topics, so next year I’ll be covering some bigger and more requested characters, with maybe a weird one tossed in to please my odd obsession with strange cinema haha.

- Aaron

PS. I’ll be running a poll of sorts in the next few days to determine the first video of the year, it’ll be based on requested characters and characters/franchises I didn’t have time to schedule this year. So stay tuned for that! :)

Which of these Bad Santas are you watching out for this year? 🪓🎅 Silent Night, Deadly Night animation here: https://youtu.be/j1aTVmoOl6Q

Is this the weirdest franchise I've covered? Or does Krampus or Leprechaun take that cake? 🎂 ....mmmmmm...cake.

I'm probably the only person living who has spent 200 hours working on a single video for the Silent Night, Deadly Night franchise, but you know, someone has to do it 🦸‍♂️ I love these little weird franchises, I know it's probably 10x more niche than Jason, Michael, or Freddy, but some of my favourite films are the small budget films I've watched for this channel.

The first video of the New Year will be a poll between 4 characters/franchises that I couldn't fit into the schedule this year, so I sadly had to bump them from a 2025 release, but they'll get a chance in 2026! I'll run that poll sometime over the holidays as a Christmas/New Year's gift from me to you.

Cheers!

New video coming out Saturday morning...that's right Xmas comes early this year! 🎄 Do you know what it could be? If you guess right, you could see your name at the start of the animation :)

This one is probably the strangest franchise I've ever covered...and if you recall, I've covered Leprechaun and Killer Klowns in the past, haha. But the weird ones make for the funniest and most interesting videos imo

Cheers!

I conjured something good up for Halloween leftovers 👻 Explaining well over 40 demons and spirits from the Conjuring franchise! https://youtu.be/CPCyj1cGHsc

Yup, I tried to get this one out before Halloween 🎃, but alas, it came out the day after. Nonetheless, it was still out for the tail-end of the spooky season, when hangovers and sugar highs are running rampant.

I've wanted to cover this franchise in some way for a long time. While Annabelle made a small appearance in my Top 10 Horror Dolls video, I knew I could cover her much better in a dedicated Conjuring video, plus, I got the chance to perfect her design. I also got a chance to cover The Nun, Crooked Man, Bathsheba, and oh, so fun demons.

Most people didn't get the hint in the preview post, but I hope it was a nice surprise for all of you :)

Starting research on the Xmas video for the year, so stay tuned for that coming up! 🎄

Happy Horror-ween, boils 'n ghouls! This Halloween party is getting a little crowded 🎃 Which horror character is your favourite?

I should have my horror video for the season out tmrw morning - after Halloween, haha - but you can catch up on all of the Horror Evolutions in this playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

I love this time of year, it always puts me in such a great mood. The crisp air, spooky movies, decorations, candy, and dressing up. So much fun!

Stay tuned for this weekend's new video!

New video coming this weekend! Do you know what it might be? Guess correctly and you may see your comment at the start of the video :)

This'll be the horror animation for the Halloween season 🎃 a day or so late, but at least it'll be out for Halloween weekend!

Before I researched this franchise closely, I thought it would be one of the quick and shorter videos. Turns out this franchise has layers like an onion, haha. But I'm super pleased with how the video is looking so far. I'm just jumping into the editing phase for it today, so stay tuned for its release soon!

Check out the infographic for the Fantastic Four video! Here's the video if you missed it: https://youtu.be/cKMFkX0VFD0

I meant to share this last week, but I have been busy working away on the Horror video for the spooky season. Hoping to have that out the day before Halloween, fingers crossed, but in the meantime, you can enjoy this F4 infographic! Check it out on my site here to be able to zoom in if you like: www.tellitanimated.com/blog/the-evolution-of-fanta…


PS. The Halloween video will be covering a somewhat new franchise, especially compared to most of my other horror videos 🎃 haha

This is certainly a large Marvel family! Check out the Evolution of the Fantastic Four right here: https://youtu.be/cKMFkX0VFD0

This video features the most designs ever created for a single video, and is the second team Evolution after TMNT! I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope you guys enjoyed it too!

I'm currently working on the horror video for the Halloween season so stay tuned for that in late October :)

New animation coming this wknd! Think you know what it is? Take a guess and you could see your comment at the start of the video :)

This animation has the most designs I've ever covered and took around 300 hours to make, so I hope all the extra work will be noticeable in the final video! Originally, I wanted to release this in August, but I keep choosing topics with abundant designs for some reason, haha.

I'm gonna have this one up today for Patrons , and then it will be posted Saturday morning on YouTube :) Patreon is here if you want to see it early: www.patreon.com/c/tellitanimated

Cheers!
