Why is that some animators don't have funding to make a pilot?

Some animators are able to get funding to make a pilot, but some don't. Why is that?

 

[PinkieLopBun]

Because they just can’t. Would you be able to make a pilot if you wanted to?

Plus, even if you can make a pilot, it's usually something done on the side while you do your regular job. I mean, think something like Long Gone Gulch, a 22 minute pilot that took over 5 years to make. As part of a season of a show, it would only take a year or so, but as an independent pilot, where you have to pay for it yourself, it takes longer to make.

I would or wouldn't.

As Yoda once said:

"Do or do not do, there is no try".

You want to get a pilot made, you will have to get investors or backers and that will not be easy and no one here can help you do that. You can ask as many questions as you want here, but you will have to do the work to make your dream a reality.

Okay. Which ways can do it? Alone or get other animators to do it.

You are asking animation hobbyists for advice about breaking into the industry, no one here is going to have relevant connections to help you.

My advice, stop asking questions here, create a really professional profile on LinkedIn and try to link with people in the animation industry there, that will help more then asking a bunch of hobbyists questions about breaking into the industry.

Okay. You need to ask this question. How many directors can direct an segment of an animation anthology film or series?

No, he doesn't need to ask this question; that's something that YOU want to know. And once again, there is no concrete answer to that question. It depends on how many people are collaborating on said project. The Overlord is correct: you need to stop making these pointless threads and start putting in some actual work, or at least some effort. No one here can get your foot in the door, and no one here is going to do your work for you. You have to do it yourself.
