Minecraft Animation

Hello everyone! We are more than happy to announce a new animated Minecraft series that is currently in the works! It will be our biggest project yet. Unlike our other previous films, this one will be animated, in the Minecraft style, and it will be a TV show/web series! It will be a Minecraft Story Mode fan animation titled "Order of the Stone", known alternatively as the Amethyst Extended AU, or simply the AEAU.

What is the AEAU? Well, as stated, it will be a fan made series of the game Minecraft: Story Mode, the game created by TellTale Games and Mojang. It was a choose-your-own adventure game where you play as the hero Jesse, and you make all these choices in the Minecraft world and go on all these crazy adventures. It has two seasons, and combined together, has 13 episodes, which ran from 2015-2017. Unfortunately, TellTale Games went bankrupt in 2018, and even with its revival, TellTale does not own the rights to Minecraft: Story Mode, and we have not had any new content since.

Fortunately, the MCSM Community has a very creative fan base, which brought together a number of many talented animators, storytellers, and voice actors. Over the years, there have been a number of MCSM fan-made stories, told in text and animation, which includes rewrites, fan made sequel seasons, spin-offs of characters, and so much more.

Such good examples include The Final Season: The Return of Soren by BlueGirlStarlette and MC:SM Rewritten by theninjakid14. The recent ones that are currently on the rise are Minecraft Story Mode: World's Edge by Ken Tracer, as well as the soon-to-be-released fan series Block by Block: The Amulet by WazzyWorks, Minecraft Story Mode: A Journey's End by Antman3806, and a game called Tales of the Order of the Stone by DabliceCZe.

With this new trend on the rise, along with the revival of the MCSM Community almost 10 years after the original game's debut, our producer Kan Seamount (also known as KanOfSoda) has decided to greenlight the AEAU.

The AEAU will be a fan animated series that will be re-telling MCSM, using the sole creator's own interpretation, which also includes choices, direction etc. Additionally, the series will expand on other side characters, and even add more scenes to make the story more broad and enhanced, and not having to solely rely on Jesse all the time.

The main Jesse will be the red suspenders Male Jesse. Co-existing alongside him will be his twin sister Tara (pronounced teh-ruh), who is interpreted as yellow hair clip Female Jesse. And of course, we have their friends Axel and Olivia, their pet pig Reuben, and fellow allies-turned-friends Petra and Lukas.

This specific season will be an adaptation of the Wither Storm arc (S1 Episodes 1-4), but it will have more episodes. This Season 1 is titled "Withered Horizons", and this logo, promotion, and additional has been made possible by our executive producer DabliceCZe, who will be helping out on the series, as a voice actor, scriptwriter, and animator!

As of now, our script is still a work in progress, but we have amazing ideas on our mind, and we are more than excited to get to work soon!

We do, however, have four amazing, talented voice actors who will be working on the project! Please meet our underrated actors from CastingCallClub!
