Episode 12 - PvP Series update

January 7th, 2008

Episode 12 is delayed due to the animators being off for the holidays. Ryan says that we should have it wrapped up in a couple weeks. This will mark the final episode of the season and the end of our big Christmas special. Next is to start work on the DVD. I’ll be flying out to L.A. sometime in the next month or two to record some audio commentaries with the cast. Kris and I are going to try to get some really great extras on the DVD for you.

A lot of you didn’t subscribe in lieu of waiting for the DVD. You people are kind of the future of the series. Everything is in somewhat of a holding pattern waiting to see how DVD sales go to determine how we march forward. Despite how happy and proud we are of the series, and how happy our existing subscribers are with their purchase, I don’t want Blind Ferret investing more money into a second season until we’re sure they’re going to get their money’s worth out of it. Maybe creating longer animations and selling them on DVD is a better business model for my readers. I know that Ryan, Randy and the guys are BFE are thinking outside the box and considering all kinds of different business models for all their animations. We’ll have to wait and see.

2007 was a year of grand experiments for PVP as a business and the Animated Series was one of those grand experiments. I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to have these twelve episodes under our belts. It’s really something to be proud of. You guys should be proud too, because you made it happen. Your support allowed us to do this. So please continue to show your support when the DVD comes out and we can make more animations for you.

More on the DVD and what’s next for PvP: The Series in the coming months, so stay tuned.
