Since we're still new (and even when we're not new) I think it'd be nice for everyone to get to know each other just a little!
I'll start!
Hi there, I'm Kisaka Toriama. I go by Kisa and Kisaka. My usernames on YouTube I'm known for are "mojocrystaltokyo" and "kistalker". I am 18 years old and I live in Indiana.
I've been drawing since I was in kindergarten and have adapted the anime style into my art since I was 11. I enjoy writing, drawing, animating, listening to music, and being social. My favorite things include Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, Yasutaka Nakata, Perfume, Animation, Friends, Being Creative, Roleplaying and Cooking.
I also like playing video games (when I have time to do so) and voice acting is really fun and exciting to me!
My projects include:
"Obliterate the Spirit, Aiko" (A written story) Crystal Hearts (Formerly known before the reboot as Tokyo Crystal Mew) and Triangles (A comic series started with one of my friends)
I hope I get to know you all well!

Hi, Kisa! I've been watching your animations for a long time!!! I must say that you have improved a lot since I first became a lurker of yours.
My username is Pilot-Obvious (obviously), but my real name is Helen. I don't really mind if you call me by my first name or not. I guess I'm the creator of Point Blank Entertainment, a little 'studio' that makes animations. Right now, I'm really the only active member, but a one-man show is okay to me!
I've been drawing digitally for about five or six years now, which is also when I started drawing anime. I've been animating since late 2008, and it's become one of my favorite hobbies. I enjoy drawing, animating, running, scripting, playing the trumpet, and playing the piano.
Projects on my list are: Future Agents the Movie (Animated) Future Agents: Redux (A sequel to the movie which will be a web comic)

Alright, then.
I'm Evan. Also known as... Evan. I'm 19, and hailing from the great and exciting land of... Ohio. OHAIO I work overnight in a department store as a freight associate, which is only slightly less soul-crushing than doing fast food.
I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, and I first encountered anime when I was 10 or so. It certainly influenced my art style, but I began to grow away from it a few years later. If such things as artistic style can be classified, mine wouldn't exactly be considered anime/manga anymore. I discovered the fanime scene on YouTube about three years ago, and since then my only regret is not having found it sooner. A lot of people would call fanime bad without a second thought, but I really appreciate the 'indy' feel of the whole thing.
As for likes, I would of course have to mention video games, just about any type of metal music, and surely a bit of role playing as well. Apart from drawing and animating, I also compose music, write at slightly higher than a third grade level, and occasionally do a bit of voice acting. I'm a bit out of practice these days, but I'm still associated with two or three projects for voice acting. Although in my case it's more voice than acting. In the world of YouTube, I go by the name Drahveson.
My own projects are too many to list, but the things I'm working on currently include:
DECEMBER - The action packed tale of a group of unusual mercenaries. Evan and Eve - A series of shorts documenting my own social awkwardness and random thoughts. Kawaii Schoolgirl 'Project Dream' - A stupid idea that's not nearly as cool as the secrecy would suggest. Ainia - The curious story of two very different girls sharing the same body.
Figured I'd describe them since there's pretty much no readily available info on any of the projects outside of this forum. I have this grand vision of a full weekly release schedule between all of my different works, but that may be somewhat of a pipe dream. Aaaaaaand that's about all I've got.

Hello I'm Phoenix the site moderator. If you ever need anything feel free to contact me via pm or via the shoutbox. I make an effort to be available as often as I can be, so I should be able to get to your requests fairly quickly.
Now then business aside, I have a passion for games, anime and manga and ever growing collections of all three. I also enjoy discussing game theory and design theory.
As of right now I have no projects that are developed enough to be mentioned. I do however eagerly await the projects that everyone else comes up with!
I think that's about it. Have fun everyone!

Hi, I'm Oramus!! But you can also call me Taiga if you want haha. Now then, a little about myself!! hmm..
I'm 17 years old~ My favourite foods are ice cream and sushi, but I really love veggies and fruits too (but i despise carrots)!! My favourite colours are white, pink and red~ I love stuffed animals, pretty jewelry (especially ones with pearls and diamonds and rubies), and anything cute! I hate math and I'm terrified of dentists and doctors, but I actually really like eye exams because they're one exam I can actually pass.
Yeah, I'd say that just about covers it.. Now onto the artsy stuff!
I've been drawing all my life, but it took me until I was 10 to take it seriously. I used to draw anime, but just a few months ago I took the plunge to learn realism because I felt as if I was stuck in a rut (honestly, though, it was the best decision of my life. never be afraid to try something new!!)
I'm working on writing several projects at the moment, but I'm not at the stage to give away a lot of information (in fact only ONE of them has a set in stone title!) Anyway, it's gonna take me several years, but I'm exited to get this huge tangled mess of a timeline underway!! Oh- My projects are: Skinner Reaction The Second Coming (or tsc)
There are a few others, but those are the big ones~. Thanks for reading and I hope we can become good friends~!

Hello everyone, it's nice to meet you all! I suppose I should write up a fancy introduction like everyone. Haha
My name is Kellie, which thanks to the accidental username on youtube many years ago, is what most people who knew me from youtube called me. Otherwise, I was known as Ame (AmethystxRose). After many years I finally came up with the name I'll publish under (whenever), my online alias Nuciferyne. So feel free to call me Kellie, Nuciferyne, Nuci, Nu... whatever you'd like. (And yes, you can still call me Ame, I had that name so long I still respond even offline to it LOL).
I'm a friendly person who loves to help out when I can. Unfortunately right now my life has been chaotic so I haven't been very active. I animated a few years ago, and occasionally hop back into it. I have plans to do more in my spare time once I can. Unfortunately I can't share the old stuff since youtube took my account down. ^^;
Hmm... well, I also enjoy playing and creating games, especially RPGs. I have plans to develop a few visual novels in the upcoming year, as well as a few comics. I'll be sure and post progress on here when it's underway! Right now I'm working on a large list of commissioned work, which takes priority of course. I love animals, especially cats, anime, music, movies... and actually I have such a broad range of tastes let's just say I try everything!
Anything else you want to know about me, go right ahead and ask! ^^ I'm a rather open person.... sometimes too much so. ^^;
In the way of projects, most of mine are a collaborative story with my long-time boyfriend/hubby, and are in the script form at present. We tend to flesh them out... for years... LOL A few of many projects you may see me mention:
Feryal's Virtues: (comic) A fantasy, somewhat medieval story following the young heroine Luna through her (and eventually her family's) lifetime adventure through the land created by Feryal, which is governed by many various Gods and the Queens who govern their created races. Lots of lore and characters. LOTS. [This story is so long that is the best I can do to summarize it. You start with Luna and go all the way through her great grandchildren's generation. @_@]
Lotus: (highly likely to be in comic format): A futuristic fantasy story following a pair of wealthy brothers and their classmate/friend Isra. One day while on vacation to relax after exams, the three are, unfortunately, drawn into the middle of a fight between the infamous mercenary Tysiphone and the Captain of a band of space pirates named Lotus. After being "rescued" alongside Lotus, the story follows the three on their adventures during their time on board Lotus's ship the "Oracle" with it's quirky crew.
Lobalt: (temp title, either VN or Comic) A futuristic fantasy story revolving around Princess Faina, the ancient divine princess who was sealed away for thousands of years during the downfall of her father's previously Utopian Kingdom, Lobalt, at the hands of his most trusted court magi. Hidden deep at the bottom of a lake, the princess was to be awakened and rise to take back Lobalt under her divine rule. Unfortunately, it is not until nearly three thousand years later that the seal is broken. The story follows Faina and the new Knights of Lobalt as she learns of this new world she must somehow bring back to a Utopian society; though their mechanical armors, guns, and airships are a lot different than the steel, swords, and horses she's accustomed to. Not to mention, there's a significant change in just about every tradition she ever knew.
Some of my solo projects include; Zodiac (which is being revamped so no summary atm), Cicatrix Manet (RPG that follows a native girl and her hunting partner/childhood friend on her quest for revenge for her village), Peasant King (Visual Novel/Harem Sim - illegitimate prince becomes king and must settle on his partner, but with a few twists to make it more interesting... an example being that six of his harem are all sisters so GOOD LUCK DISAPPOINTING THE FAMILY LOL... yeah I'm horrible I know).
Um I think I made this long enough so I'll shut up now. Needless to say I have a LOT of work ahead of me. :'D

Hey there, The name's Mark...I joined the boards because I support the idea of bringing animators together. Other than just animation I do music. I'll be creating a handful of threads hopefully to help out around here while it grows. Nice to meet you all. !

You are welcome my dear Kisaka. I'm glad I was able to inspire you. I think it could be much more fun to talk about my projects like this, just posting something and waiting for comments is kind of so unpersonal. Having some people who actually know what pain it is to do a decent animation is very refreshing.

I completely understand! That's why I made this place- to encourage content creators or those of whom just enjoy creative content to come together. It's a lot friendlier and a lot less judging, I feel.
And oh yes, we all feel your pain ;n;
