This was a great ride. Neo- Anime with an earthy group of characters and an edgy story line. Nice work Jesse and Company. I hope this gets the global attention it deserves.
great series (im guessing its a series considering its in episodes)loved the stoy line and the film work. nice editing and great video quality. i really hope this makes it big.
In episode 2, just after the opening, one of the bridges in the background looks like the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia. Now, judging from the fact that the site states the show is filmed in America, I am curious to know what bridge it is.
I really like the show, and think the whole concept is awesome. I really like the animation.
I am eagerly awaiting part 12.
Awesome show.
The Bridges in the background are the Triboro bridge and another one (forget the name) here in Queens New York. Funny how things from one particular angle sometimes look so much like a place a world apart.
Glad you are enjoying it. We are hard at work on Episode 12 (should be a bit) and are really excited to hear what people think
I saw this on The Escapist just recently. After viewing only one random episode I decided to donate to your site. Very unusual and striking. I enjoy this a lot. Things that blur the line between reality and fantasy are always tricky to do well, but I think you’ve struck a good balance. I wish you all success in everything you attempt.
Wow, Drawn by Pain is probably one of the best shows I’ve seen. The way it all comes together just blew me away. It makes me very sad that there is only going to be 12 episodes though. I’m looking forward to the conclusion of Drawn my Pain. Fantastic job Jess, and you too Erika on the animation.
Thanks Richard! I just hope the story ends in a way that you enjoy honestly Hopefully more people like yourself come and check it out - we got into this to share something we care about and always love hearing someone digs it.
Congratulations on such an amazing series, can’t wait for the final episode! Saw it over at the Escapist and managed to find this site, its awesome. I can’t wait for the DVD to come out, have to get it and a shirt shipped over to England/make sure they get delivered while I’m in America/Whatever…
I honestly hope film companies take notice of you now dude, their loss if not! Keep up the good work and all the best in your future projects, (Maybe a Animie Drawn by Pain webcomic???) I’ll sure to keep an eye out for them.
Thanks Kyle - we’ve thought about a graphic novel at points and would love to put one together.
Nothing makes me feel better than to know someone on the other side of the pond actually gets to see what I make in my apartment for the most part. The internet truly is amazing
Constructive yes (of which some of your post was). Insulting no. If you look thru the site you will see comments that reflect people’s thoughts, but all are done with respect for the time and energy put into this project. A lot of people enjoy it, but for some - it is not their cup of tea (which is completly cool!). Even for those who do not enjoy what they have seen - I only ask that they show the respect they themselves would desire upon their own ventures.
Just wanted you to know that the series is mind blown so far! I loved the whole dark-realistic concept with music that matched the scenes. Erica, Marissa and of course yourself, have created this addictive thing that I’ve watched over the last 3 days (yeah I watched it even whilst at work ). Gonna try to start a massive fan following down here cuz you guys deserve it! Awesome work again! Can’t wait for the second series (/hear hear!)
PS: Pls. don’t make shipping of the Soundtrack/DVD to Australia too expensive
This is a really good series =) Im really enjoying watching it - the combo of filming and animation is great and i really love the music in it too. Can’t wait to see how it ends.
Are you planning on doing any more projects like this or maybe another series afterwards?
Loving this series, and I’m showing it to all my mates here in New Zealand, land of hobbits and sheep. A couple of my friends are budding film makers so you’re a huge inspiration.
We love the NZ doods (one of long term supporters is from down there) and have been well trained to never call you Aussies!
And to think I am an inspiration for anything other than a life of crime is a huge compliment! Seriously though - feels nice to feel appreciated Thanks you so much for the kind words,
i love how i was randomly watching an escapist video and stumbled on this website. by this comment i have only watched the first 6 episodes but i was hooked by the first one. the story is solid, the characters are well rounded and the animation fits well with the concept. i hope this goes on to become something bigger than you expected it to be. hope you had lots of fun at the webbys lol.

Seriously though - thanks so much for the kind words. Tis very awesome of you to say.
Spreading the word is great and helpful. And I’ll try to find a place that sends stuff out that’s reasonable for ya

You guys did an awesome job, the music, the style, the actors and the story make something that deserves to go straight to TV.
It’s funny to see how the animation scenes have been increasing over episodes, hope the last episodes gets as good (or better) as the previous.
One last word: Thanks!

I’m sure I’ll do something else - just not sure exactly what yet. Being in the trenches on this project makes it a bit hard to see anything else.
I’m just glad people like yourself enjoy what we are doing. Makes me want to do more.
