Stoopid Buddy Stoodios Animation Class is a natural fit for the Vimeo On Demand platform as instructional and animation content thrives with our audience, said Greg Clayman, general manager of audience networks, Vimeo. Weve been actively pursuing content that supports passionate audiences underserved by traditional programming models and the high-quality content, bold style from the Stoopid Buddys team will resonate with animation enthusiasts globally.
Stoopid Buddy Stoodios attracts a constant stream of celebrity guests to its studio for its many animated series and those who enroll in the new course available on Vimeo On Demand can expect celebrity guest appearances throughout the training sessions as well. You never know who might pop in during a class!
The online stop-motion animation course consists of a series of classes that augment Stoopid Buddy Stoodios popular eight-week beginner and intermediate training courses held at the companys Burbank, California studio.
The new series joins Vimeo On Demand during a benchmark year for the platform. Earlier this year, Vimeo announced a $10 million fund to accelerate its investment in bringing and supporting quality individual titles to the Vimeo On Demand platform. Vimeo has been actively pursuing content that supports passion-driven verticals including music, instructional, sports, comedy and sci-fi/seeking truth titles that are relevant to Vimeos audience.
New York Comic Con attendees will get a first at look at the course during the opening day panel Vimeo Presents Stoopid Buddies Film School Live featuring the Stoopid Buddys award-winning animation team and moderated by Vimeos Greg Clayman.
