The Reiters: Pilot
Project Overview
The Reiters is an indie animated series set in the 19th century. With its own spin on the classic Dog-Detective trope, it follows the story of two police academy dropouts; Richard Lloyd and Edgar Painter.
The series revolves around these two friends on their journey to building their own successful independent PI service; “The Rieters”. Together they solve a magnitude of crimes and cold-cases in the small town of Cranesbill, but In the process they unravel a much deeper and sinister web of mysteries that would end up testing not only their skills as detectives, but also their friendship, tenacity and resilience.
