Hi

Do you know were there any other animations related to xiaolin besides xs and xc? And how high do you think the probability is that next year they will officially announce a new series related to xiaolin

Currently there are no other official tie-in series, movies, webisodes, or other media that I am aware of in live action or animation. There are no official comic books, comic strips, graphic novels, or written novels to my knowledge.

A 300+ page graphic novel was planned as part of a now cancelled Kickstarter campaign back in 2015/16, but I do not believe any scripts for it were ever written. Let alone published anywhere online.

However, there is currently an interest check for Xiaolin Reanimated. A collaboration between artists and animators to recreate a section of the first episode of Xiaolin Showdown. You can show your support and sign up to participate with the form linked in this post. I strongly encourage you to reblog the post so others can show support too.

As for a new series, I think it would be excellent to announce something new at the 20th anniversary mark for Xiaolin Showdown, but Hui has been doing low key interest checks for the last three years and nothing has come of it. Instead she has taken a break to pursue other interests in telling stories. Her most recent projects are 9 Dragons Tea and a children's book about female WW2 airplane pilots, both based on her travels.

If you like Xiaolin, please support the creator's other projects, but do not harass them in reviews or comments about not making content specifically for you.

The best thing to do is show support by buying products from the official Xiaolin Chronicles RedBubble store, streaming or buying the episodes from legitimate platforms, and leaving POSITIVE reviews asking for more Xiaolin content on those platforms.

I hope that helps.

Project Director Stepping Down

Hello Xiaolin Dragonites!

Regretfully, Str0ppy is stepping down as project director. They will still be part of the project, just not at a leadership level. Please look for the clips they are animating on the finished cut!

Chaos, here, will be stepping up to fill in as overall project manager and continuing as the art director.

I look forward to on-boarding more contributors to the project this week, so please check your emails if you applied when applications reopened back in April.

If there is confusion about which email address you applied with, please DM me here on Tumblr, Twitter, or Discord so we can sort things out.

Let there be Light!

[xiaolinreanimated]

It's finally the end of November, which means the application has closed.

We received a whopping (for this fandom) 48 applications for both general interest and artists & animators!!

Let's Go!! XIAOLIN REANIMATED!!!!!

Please give us a few days to finish sorting through applications and get everyone notified if they've been accepted or declined for the project. We're very excited to start working on this project with all of you! Until things get off the ground (and onto Dojo's back), please be patient.

Hello and welcome, friends, monks, dragons, Heylin lords, to Xiaolin Reanimated!

Xiaolin Showdown is celebrating its' 20th Anniversary in 2023; to celebrate, we're reanimating the first episode! Xiaolin is a small fandom, so we may not be able to animate the whole thing, but let's get as many people on board as possible!

To keep track of interest, we've created this form. Filling out this form also acts as an application to join the project. Applicants will be notified in late November of their acceptance. This gives us an entire year to work on the project!

More information can be found within the form itself, but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Gong Yi Tan Pi!

FAQ page is live for Xiaolin Reanimated!!

Send in an ask to the Xiaolin Reanimated blog if you don't see a question answered here.

Application and interest check is still open: Apply Now

F.A.Q

Our F.A.Q is now available!

You can either continue reading this post to find out more about the project, or you can read them here!

What is Xiaolin Reanimated?

This is a multi-animator project in which animators will be given a section of the show to animate. Once everything is complete, it’ll be edited together to create the episode! Due to the fanbase being small, it is likely that we won’t be able to animate the whole episode, but we have got a handful of scenes from the show that we have in mind. Participants are free to re-interpret the shot they’re given.

When will the project start?

We plan on sending confirmation emails and possibly invites to a Discord server around November 28, 2022. Everyone should be assigned their shot by December 5, 2022.

Will there be a Discord server for the participants?

Yes, if there is enough interest in the project as a whole and if people want to. We will not force participants to be in the server, but it creates a sense of community, and allows others to share tips and resources.

What’s the project timeline?

June 9–November 28, 2022: Interest check/open application November 28, 2022: Notify applicants and send out Discord invite links November 28-December 5, 2022: Assign sections to animators January 30, 2023: Check-in 1 March 20,2023: Check-in 2 May 15, 2023: Check-in 3 July 10, 2023: Check-in 4 September 4, 2023: Check-in 5 October 26, 2023: Check-in 6: Final Cut due November 1, 2023: Final cut is posted online!

What are the video specs?

1280x720 pixels, 24fps, mp4/mov uncompressed

What is the final deadline for submissions?

October 26, 2023: Check-in 6: Final Cut Due If you’re running late for any of the check-ins, please inform one of the organizers so that an extension or reassignment can be discussed. Please account for video editing and rendering.

Can I make changes to my final shot after submission?

Yes, but you have until October 30th, 2023 to make changes.  The goal is to release the finished video on November 1st, the original premiere date of the series.

What kind of animation is allowed?

Absolutely any kind! As long as you’re able to animate your shot and get it to us on time.

Can I choose a specific shot?

When confirmations are sent you’re free to put in a request for what kind of shot you’d like. For example, if you’d like a shot with more action or a shot including your favorite character from the first episode, we’ll make a note of that when distributing them.

Can I alter the characters?

As long as they’re still recognizable, go ahead!

Can I change the staging or alter the shot to be different from the original?

Of course! Like with altering character designs, as long as important features and aspects of the shot are still included, you’re free to do what you want.

Can I trace for my shot?

We don’t mind if you trace from the original episode, but it would need to be different enough from the source by style or other means. Consider it a recreation of XS in your own style.

Should I use my real name or online alias when signing up?

That’s entirely up to you and what you’re comfortable with. As long as you inform others of how you’d like to be referred to as in the final cut, so that appropriate credits can be given, it does not matter which name you use when applying. It is considered more professional to use your real name, especially if you want to use this project on a resume.

How will I know if I’ve been selected to participate in the project?

On November 28, 2023, we will send out confirmation emails to applicants who have been successful in obtaining a spot on the team.

Can I share my finished piece or progress?

Of course! But please post it AFTER the final project is posted. Make sure to tag it with #XiaolinReanimated so that we can share what you’ve made.

Can I collab with someone on my animation?

Yes!

Should I add a credit/watermark when making my submission?

No. This is something that will be done when the final cut is being put together. You may add a credit or watermark when you post your cut to your preferred social media channels.

What if I don’t know how to animate?

There are other positions available. You could be a mod for the Discord server, create and provide backgrounds or other assets for animators to use, or - if you're comfortable animating a blink or something simple - a still animation shot. More details will be provided when the project gets underway.

Where can I find the character references?

We currently have character reference pages in the works. As we don’t currently know which scene the project will be focusing on, it isn’t live yet. Once our list of participants and the scene itself has been finalized, we will release it and notify everyone!

Where and when will the finished project be posted?

The video will be posted to the Director's YouTube channel (here) between November 1-3. An announcement will be made when the video is live!

Will there be a "Xiaolin Chronicles Reanimated?"

At this stage, that’s unlikely. XC was created nearly 10 years after XS, and as much as we would like to celebrate that as well, two projects going at the same time would be too much for everyone on the team to handle. This may be reconsidered in the future, but for the time being, the answer is no.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask. Our ask box is open and there’s always the option of messaging one of the organizers directly if the ask didn’t seem to be sent through.

[allforafro]

Thanks for the answer.

You don't have to worry I'm not one to impose or harass others, I'm patient. I will try to support this series if possible. Xiaolin was great and it would be nice to see this franchise grow.

We are left to support this series, show all our love and wait patiently.
