This story is about a wizard who can't control their magic accidentally turning themself and everything that they interact with gray.

You can take a look at our Kickstarter campaign for further info here!

We also released a lot of videos showing a bit more of our team's progress, and also characters you can expect in future episodes! Here, if you'd like to learn more!

This first scene features what Hayi, Ainslie and Aehsyrra could possibly be doing after the events of Episode 1 (and 2...? 🤔). The Bounty Hunters are hanging out, too! In... their own little way.

This next scene has Unknown, the mysterious hooded white haired figure at the end of Episode 1. It shows a little bit of his domestic life, and teases the Lord and Lady of House Châtillet, Aerwyn and Blanche.

Our third scene introduces two new characters, and shows two somewhat familiar characters! If you recall the sleeping fox and lion at the end of Episode 1, you might be able to recognize them here trying to find a fishing spot! Their names are Benika and Mimi respectively, and you'll get to meet Damian and Dorian, two devilishly handsome devils from The Dreams Plane AKA The Hells.

And for our final teaser for the Kickstarter, we introduce Lethia and the Necromancer—two people who are plotting something in secret. What is this contract they have? And what exactly are these two trying to do?

Hex's Hue takes place in the magical world of Seisyn, which has its own slew of problems. The issues that lay within the depths of this world is far grander than anything Hayi or Ainslie could ever imagine... especially because they both have problems of their own. They're both so intrinsically wrapped into their own worlds—for better, or for worse.

The teaser videos were supposed to show a little bit more of the world of Seisyn, and the upcoming characters so that you will be able to know what you can look forward to! Our team is hard at work to make sure all of this can be done, but we really need your help.

If any of this interested you in any way, please consider supporting our Kickstarter! If you can't pledge right now, that's alright! Spreading the word and helping us get eyes onto the project would work wonders, too.

If you're new here, hello! We released our Episode 1, which is our proof of concept, a little over a month ago! If you wanted to see the format of these episodes, you can take a look at that here!

Hopefully you can join us on this journey! We have so much in store for you to take a look at, and we hope you're as excited as we are!

Finally, I would also like to plug our other social media. We're a little more active on there, but we're doing our best to be more active here! (We're a really small team...)

You can find us on: Twitter • Instagram • BlueSky • Facebook

We're going to also take this time to thank you for 1000 views on our Episode 1! The support means a lot, and it helps the team feel like all the efforts are worth it.

The Premise of Enceladus V is simple: There's a group of young adults stuck on a generation ship traveling through the vast void of space, they've never set foot on a planet and likely never will, and they're sending short video clips back in time to our era to say hello.

Or as the kickstarter puts it

By the year 2150...

the Earth’s climate had shifted so drastically that it became near uninhabitable for humankind. In orbit above the Americas, the continent’s greatest scientists and engineers worked tirelessly to create a vessel big enough to hold what remained of the population. The vessel was built and dismantled many times as several different designs failed or fell short. Until, on the fifth iteration, in a rare instance of all of humanity coming together, brilliant minds from around the world collaborated to create a city-sized, self-sustaining, mobile habitat: The Enceladus V. The successful design was replicated twice more, with the Enceladus housing the remnants of The Americas and Canada, The Hyperion for Europe and Africa, and The Titan for Asia and Australia. The Fleet left Earth on a long, steady journey toward the closest Earth-like planet, Proxima B

Our story begins eight generations later....

These short animations are the project of Anna Lencioni, a storyboard artist with an impressive resume including Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, DC Super Hero Girls, Onyx Equinox (which she worked on with her wife and is hoping to one day return to), Amphibia, Helluva Boss, and soon Hazbin Hotel and The Search for WondLa.

Lencioni has fleshed out her universe pretty thoroughly, but her goal here is to create something that works as a series of short clips of animation, to better make use of a small budget. It seems like a pretty fun project and I hope more people will contribute to the kickstarter (link)!

Character profiles under the cut.

What happens when a creator leaves the system behind?

Clara & the Below just proved something big… With huge support on Kickstarter, this dark project from Amphibia creator Matt Braly shows how powerful indie animation can really be. Check it out!
