Brackenwood - Episodes and Awards

Episodes and Awards

The Brackenwood series currently consists of seven official episodes and one unofficial music video. So far, Adam Phillips' Brackenwood has had a major impact on the Flash animated community. Several episodes in the series have won numerous awards.

  • Bingbong Of Brackenwood: Bingbong is lured by the music of the faeries. In his excitement he runs to join them in their dance, but the faeries begin to weave dangerous magic. This episode was a Cartoon Category Finalist in the Flash Forward Film Festival in San Francisco, March 2004.
  • Bitey Of Brackenwood: Bitey is the fastest creature on the planet, but occasionally his speed advantage does him no good whatsoever. Whenever karma catches up with Bitey, it gets him good, and we see it happen in this episode. It took the Runner-up prize in the first annual 'The Greatest Story Never Told' competition.
  • Prowlies At The River: Bitey's personal water supply becomes contaminated, so he goes to the river for a drink. There he finds the place occupied by five prowlies, strange creatures that are normally passive but when provoked can be unpredictable and dangerous. Prowlies was 2005's Grand Prize Winner of the world's largest digital online storytelling competition, 'The Greatest Story Never Told', as well as the Cartoon Category Winner at Flash Forward in San Francisco, 2005.
  • LittleFoot: Bitey encounters a lost little "morrug". It's dangerous out there all alone in the Brackenwood grasslands! LittleFoot was a Netsurfer's Official Selection at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival, 2006. It was also the Winner of the Cartoon Category at Flash Forward, Seattle 2006.
  • The Yu-Yu: Is Bitey's speed any match for the Yu-Yu cloud? This episode of the series won the Cartoon Category at Flash Forward, Austin TX, 2006.
  • Waterlollies: Bitey loses his ability to outrun every other creature in the forest, and suddenly finds himself surrounded by enemies. This is the longest episode of the series so far, running exactly 9 minutes. This episode won the Newgrounds Tank Award for Best Flash Animation of 2007.
  • The Last of the Dashkin: We learn many things about Bitey, and why he is the way he is. This is the first Brackenwood short to break away from the "character introduction" style movies that had little or no character motivation and plot. This is a story, not only answering a lot of questions, but asking just as many new ones. This short broke the all-time record for highest scoring flash on Newgrounds, and is the first flash of the series to include a narrated voice telling the story as the animation progresses.

Famous quotes containing the word episodes:

    What is a novel if not a conviction of our fellow-men’s existence strong enough to take upon itself a form of imagined life clearer than reality and whose accumulated verisimilitude of selected episodes puts to shame the pride of documentary history?
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
