~~~


Welcome to another Grounds Patrol creator
interview! This episode we talk to Mikkel Mainz, head of
animation studios Skald and Sun Creature and creator of the Tales
of Alethrion series.


Tales of Alethrion is an animated fantasy series
that tells the stories of seasoned adventurers and their run-ins
with an ancient and mysterious treasure map. On its YouTube
channel (boasting over 100K subs) you’ll find the original short
film that started it, the entirety of Season 1, a bunch of short
mini-arcs and tons of behind-the-scenes content. And we’ll all be
treated to a kickass Season 2 if we can slay an epic beast of our
own - the Alethrion Season 2 Kickstarter.


I got to catch Mikkel after a 3-hour marathon Youtube Live event
and pick his brain about Alethrion, fantasy storytelling, DnD and
a whole lot more. Enjoy the interview and consider pledging to
make Season 2 a reality.


BY THE WAYYY: Grounds Patrol now has a public
email address! Send your thoughts, feelings and glorious praise
for this episode to groundspatrol@gmail.com and I might likely
read out your message in the next episode. For now, no ads or
plugs for your stuff - that’ll come later.


Also, shoutout to @NinjaMuffin, Grounds Patrol’s new producer.
Thanks to his work this podcast will chug on like the well-stoked
coal train it is. And I won’t have to sweat at 3am because I
haven’t found anyone to come onto the show yet. Haha. Ha.
