What is Mongrel Valley?

The greatest animated show you've ever seen in your life!

Well, that's the plan anyway.


Mongrel Valley is the passion project of two professional wizards and dedicated goofballs who want to create a show which breaks the mold and shatters your expectations of character storytelling, comedy, and worldbuilding.

The Elevator Pitch

 

Why does the world favor meaning over nothingness? Everyone longs to become the hero of their own story, but what if your story means nothing to the world?

The nihilistic daughter of the eccentric Arch Wizard, Mae loathes her father's adventurous shenanigans. In a middle-of-nowhere town, Mae's only escape is living vicariously through social media; the habitual nothingness of the Orb.


One of Arch's compulsive adventures brings back a hitchhiker from another world. Connor is a wayward artist who lives to collect stories and doesn't believe that anyone can exist without narrative. His boisterous nature is tandem to Arch, who gleefully brings him on dangerous new quests.


Through Arch's negligence, Mae and Connor become cursed. With their souls bound together, their stories become intertwined. Mae's half-elven longevity is brought into peril by Connor's human ineptitude. Now, adventures are mandatory, and Mae must keep this "hero" alive, if naught for her own sake.

Good question! As our project develops, we will be preparing methods of crowd-funding and promotion that allow us to take full advantage of our status as independent animators! If a streaming service were to get involved, it would have to be a very sweet deal that wouldn't stifle our creative vision. We'll play it as it goes!


We are focusing on telling stories that will primarily be relatable to young adults or teenagers who are still on their own quests to understand how they fit into the world. The characters in Mongrel Valley are meant to be realistic in their struggles despite their magical environment, so a lot of emphasis will be placed on themes of psychology and mental health.


Mongrel Valley is the name of the town that our characters call home. It's an off-the-grid, unremarkable settlement of strange and unique people who don't quite fit in anywhere else. I mean, the mayor lives in a boot for goodness sake! The definition of "mongrel" is a mixed breed dog, or a mutt in other words. Even though the denizens of Mongrel Valley each come from distinct cultures, there's something about the place that brings everyone together...


Right now, our production team mainly consists of our very close friends. However, if you are really invested into the project and would like to share your creativity, we're not ruling you out completely. If you would like to connect with us professionally, please use our contact form and attach your portfolio or relevant work.
