Yeah, yeah, so the weekend has been nothing but watching web series (or movies in Ink‘s case). I know. :P I’m really damn tired. Anyway, here’s another that’s visually fantastic! It’s called Chadam:

Chadam lives as the “chosen one” in the hyper-stylized and exaggerated metropolitan island city of Vulture. His power of imagination is strong enough to physically change his environment and, therefore, his world … to save it from evil. The series finds Chadam in a place of refuge where he and others have retreated to plan their attack against a serial killer known as Viceroy. Chadam is a 3D animated web series from artist Alex Pardee and produced by Jace Hall.

All ten episodes are available to watch online now. Here’s the first one:

This guy is awesome! He plays Sp3cimen in The LXD and was introduced in the best episode to date: Robot Lovestory. I love his mechanical style, especially when he moves like he’s got a glitch pulsing through him.

Seems to be the day for watching stuff on Hulu. :) I saw something about The LXD (The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers) on io9 last week but didn’t get a chance to read the interview with Jon M. Chu or watch any of it until now. It’s awesome! It’s a blend of superhero + dance and a lot of fun. The superpowers stem from dance actually. Visually stunning indeed. The first five episodes are up on Hulu now.

Here’s the first episode:

But my favorite to date is episode 3: Robot Lovestory, which introduces the character Sp3cimen.

Oh, and here’s another interview with Jon M. Chu on Hulu.

Enjoy!

 

Amusing. :P League of STEAM has a great new video up:

Hah! These are great. The Vork Unbreakable Bank is the best! The turn yourself into a cartoon ad that keeps popping up is annoying though. Sheesh. Go away already.

Anyway, watch through to the end for 6 options to click on. :)

There seems to be a lot of steampunk webseries popping up lately. The latest is Perpetual Steam Punk.

“Perpetual Steam Punk” is an episodic web series set in an alternate, steampunk, San Francisco.  It follows the stories of several members of the upper class in a post-apocalyptic San Francisco as they struggle to find and harness the elusive Perpetual Motion Machine.

Here is the trailer:

Looks fun. :)

League of STEAM has a new video up. Yes, it’s cheesy but I’m amused that they took advantage of the New Moon lines for it.

League of STEAM #2: “New Moon Vampire Hunt”
After hearing numerous reports of vampires lurking near the local cinema, the League of STEAM arrives to investigate. Dark forces were covertly hidden among hundreds of “Twilight” fans as they waited in line for the midnight release of “New Moon”. However, with the team on the case, the unholy undead did not remain concealed for long…

The first episode: “Monkey Business”
