The Little Nightmares Project
Project Overview
What is this?
The Little Nightmares Project is an entirely fan-made and volunteer-run project to create a short film featuring the first chapter of Little Nightmares II, The Wilderness.
What Kind of Film Is This?
The film will be animated traditionally, in similar style of The Sword in The Stone (1963) - with sketchy, visible lines and watercolor-type backgrounds. However, instead of on physical paper, it will be drawn digitally.
The animation will be done on 12fps (24fps on twos).
What To ExpectBecause this project is entirely fan-created, there are not many requirements or deadlines; the only roles held to a high standard are Animators and Voice Actors, but others need not apply to assist the project. I have designed this project to be very teamwork-based because I want it to be fun to work on.
Occasionally we also host voicechats to discuss our current progress, review scripts and storyboards, and make sure we're all happy with progress and the current state of the project.
There is no requirement to stay UNLESS you are a Voice Actor. In that case, I request you please be willing to stay through with the project until it is finished. if you are an Animator or other role, you may leave at any time, however let me know beforehand so I can keep track.
DISCORD IS REQUIRED due to updates and announcements being made there.
What Roles are AvailableI have only listed 2 roles here, Voice Actor and Animator, as they are the two most important ones; however, many more roles are available and needed for the project!
Storyboarder
Script writer
Sound manager
Concept artist
Character designer
Animator (apply-only)
Voice Actor (apply-only)
If you are interesting in one of the non-apply-only roles, simply join our Discord and begin sharing your work! This is a very open project.
A quick side note: for official storyboarding and script writing, I will assign people to these roles prevent overlap - AKA, making sure nobody is writing the same section of the script, or storyboarding the same part of the story; however, you are free to still share your script concepts or storyboard sketches.
If you have any other questions, you may message me here or on Discord. Thank you for reading!

*whispering* Six? Where are you?
Hey! Come back! Where are you going?
Get in! Quickly!
Animators are the ones who will animate the final film. The film will be animated digitally and hand-drawn/traditionally. The art style will be similar to that of The Sword in the Stone - sketchy, visible pencil lines. The recommended frame rate is 12fps, though you of course may go to 24 or 6 depending on the requirements of the shot you're animating. However, majority of the animation will be on 12fps*.
*24fps on twos.
Toonboom Harmony is recommended because of the ability to swap and share scenes, but NOT required.
This is an unpaid position for fans who love Little Nightmares, so there is no rush to animate, and you are free to leave whenever you like.
