Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 These guys must be defectors from other animation studios who banded together to start their own company or something. The portfolio of in-house projects on their website is remarkably thin. A few music videos, one other series and Arcane. That's it. Incredible.

What Deadlines? said: These guys must be defectors from other animation studios who banded together to start their own company or something. All the founders were professionals in the industry, yeah. It's one of the things cited in the interview I shared as to why members of the studio think it worked so well -- that it's being run by artists who have done the work themselves (all the three founders have credits on Arcane as art directors or directors) and understand it, rather than management suits. 3 hours ago, Deadlines?

They first worked in advertising, working for major corporate clients like Coca-Cola and Panasonic, then branched into music videos and so on. Hard to find a listing of commercial credits for anyone. But yeah, quite the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) Arcane won all 9 awards for which it was nominated at this year's Annie Awards. Well deserved. https://deadline.com/2022/03/2022-annie-awards-winners-list-movies-tv-video-games-1234974570/ Spoiler It was Arcane, in the end, that was mentioned most tonight, taking the big TV categories that also included Writing, Animated Effects, Character Animation, Character Design, Production Design, Storyboarding and Directing.

Ran Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 On the heels of that, I saw that Riot made a big investment in Fortiche, though still a non-controlling stake. Two of their executives joined Fortiche's board. Very well-deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 AMA with two of Arcane's writers and main creatives. Main takeaway is that Season 2 should hit in 2023 and will directly follow up S1, but in later seasons they want to explore more of the world (Runeterra) and go to other places. They want to earn that first, though. dog-days, JGP, karaddin and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is still a lot left of the direct story to tell after the cliff hanger of S1, I assume full blown drawn out conflict between Piltover and Zaun is now on the cards with both sides having lost their leadership and a rapid escalation in the weaponisation of both Hextech and Shimmer. The natural way to bring in additional parties is via them initially trying to meddle in that conflict for their own ends and trying to get a hold of the new weapons, which was already setup/started in S1 with Mel's mother from Noxus.
