Maker's Diary About Mecha Town

A note written by the animator of the Clockie series, recording the production of the movie Mecha Town.


2157 AE, Day 1 of Project Initiation
Like much of the crew, I grew up watching Clockie. I know the Clockie cartoons are unmatched in quality and reputation, and I understand the difficulty in producing such an animation.
Just so, the public will have undoubtedly high expectations of the commemoration piece made every ten years. The fact that we're the following act to preceding masterpieces like Cyberville and Starshipville has also added no small amount of pressure.
Though this might be a world of dreams, the art of animation doesn't quite work like how people assume. We can't exactly rely on our thoughts or imaginations to move the characters and have them jump onto the screens to act out their roles. This is still a traditional hand-drawn animation, not one of those fantastical dream bubble movies — but that's the exact reason why Clockie has such enduring charm.
With all the horrors scheduled in our future shifts, I can't help but run my hand through my still-luxurious hair, lamenting the many clumps that are fated to fall in the future.
