Introducing a New Micro-Short Series, “BraveHurts” from MAKE Originals
By Egotist / /
“BraveHurts” is a medieval fantasy series featuring the bravest of himbos who will do anything, and risk it all for the chance to hold onto something they can’t have. Dumb. Star-crossed. Morons.
Hear ye, hear ye! MAKE Originals is excited to roll out their latest micro-short series, “BraveHurts.” Inspired by classic medieval tropes and fairytales, these are the stories that didn’t quite make it into that storybook of yore. Conceptualized by Josh Schneider, “BraveHurts” was designed in the spirit of a comic strip and brought to life by MAKE’s animation team. Coming fresh off the heels of “Dead Moon Walking,” “Bravehurts,” is a quest into the realm of medieval shenanigans.
Fairytales offer us a lesson, and fables fill us with wonder, “BraveHurts” is about one thing and one thing only—loot. Riding under the humor is an honest look at our more fickle and foolish desires. It’s darn good fun for a quick minute before the consequences of such pursuits start settling in.
Technical Director Aaron Dabelow shares the secret sauce behind the series, saying, “We obviously drew from a Monty Python-type humor — when you see the characters trotting along, you can almost hear the coconuts from The Holy Grail.”
Each micro short is a self-contained riot, perfect for satisfying your merry-medieval cravings in bite-sized portions. “Bravehurts” is the perfect blend of medieval madness and modern-day comedy, ensuring it’s a hit with viewers of all ages.
Original music from Steve Horner, of Horner Music, imbues each story with a bardic lyricism that calls out to the days of those more classic looney toons. “BraveHurts” doesn’t pull any punches, and Horner’s Music ensures that you feel every one of them.
Prepare to be regaled with tales of gallant knights, bumbling squires, and damsels in distress.
