If this is what you gotta do to get millions of views arround here,
then we are going to take the Internet by storm.
Action!
If you got a big [elephant sound] let me twerk it.
Find out how hard I got to work it.
This better work Charley, I haven't got a new follower in weeks.
Oh, I can see Wiggy's junk. Irv, swing it over there.
Anything for more facebook likes.
Damn it, Wiggy. I just washed my face.
Yeah! Happy Birthday.
What's going on?
My iPad.
Oh! Hello Internet. I'm John Hoyos and welcome to Friend Us!
the first animated social media show.
Yeeeeah! That's us.
But Friend Us! isn't like a regular old cartoon
because each of our characters exist in social media.
-They tweet. -''Yo, I'm alive.''
They post Instagrams and videos.
Yo, bus, yo, yo, yo, bus.
You can keep up with them on facebook.
You can interact with the gang all week on social media
leading up to an episode every other friday.
We tried pitching the idea to Hollywood but they just didn't get it.
Ralph, have you heard of this social media?
That's ridiculous. Pass me another money sandwich.
So we thought, the show is on social media,
the characters exist in social media,
why not fund it through social media
and invite you the audience to be a part of the show.
Have you ever wanted to be a character in an animated world?
You can be the pesky gym teacher or one of the kids friends.
We'll make you a limited edition costum avatar and put you in the credits.
Or even name the kids school or local hang out after you.
After working in one of the biggest animation studios in the world
on shows like King of the Hill and Hellboy
I've learned it takes a lot of people to bring animated characters to life.
''Animated''? What does he mean ''animated''?
Sounds racist.
So that's why we are here on Kickstarter.
To raise 30K in 30 days
and bring to life the first animated social media show.
That might sound like a lot of money,
but compared to other sudios we are doing it for pennies.
And we are bringing some of the best talents in the industry to do it.
So if you'd like to bring Friend Us! to reality here's what you can do:
If you can donate, that will be amazing.
But if you are broke, no worries, you can still help by sharing this video.
And lastly just friend us and enjoy the ride.
Save Friend Us! Donate now or they all die
and become part of a new kind of storytelling.
We are gonna die?
