This pitch got turned down by Disney because they wanted cartoons for Girls 😅 Logline: A historian cat has been trying to save the world for eight lives, and the last one is his last chance. The story is mainly about Egyptian mythology: The Nine Enneads. #bettercartoon
I'm only really posting my presentation pages though but for little more context, these are our heroes from all over the globe and different walks of life (and time!).
The Enneads have to fight Apep, the arch-enemy of the sun god, Ra, a malevolent force who could never be entirely be vanquished. Apep has his own powerful cult, The Iconoclasts, and villains who are also from all over the globe and different walks of life (and time).
Some views of their retrofuturist/decopunk world.
They travel the world on a Zeppelin called Mandjet! I just loved the idea of mythology being recontextualized! 😂 I'm still bummed that it was passed over but I'm still gonna try to make it happen in the future, somehow?
Literally, the only reason why I made them all furries is because I wanted to create this Jackal/Anubis like character.
Personally, Disney is the best company to pitch your ideas to! They're super open about listening to pitches and not leading you on, so please don't take this thread as "I hate Disney cus their sexist" but I hate the idea of cartoons for "girls" in general.
