Submission Process
Please fill out, sign, and send the submission release form(button below) to us before you send us anything. Without the form we will consider it an unsolicited submission. We do not accept unsolicited and unauthorized submission of creative ideas, works, or other materials, and by submitting ideas, works and materials, the provider/sender acknowledges that we take no responsibility and will have no liability with respect to its use by any third-party. Eric Miller Animation Studios will not be held legally responsible for the submitted ideas, works or materials.
Please see below for our full Policy Concerning Unsolicited Submissions.
What we can offer you (Please read before submitting)
We do not fund animation projects, so if you’re looking for funding we’re not the right partner for you.
We have a very limited amount of slots for collaborations, if we really like the idea, have available open slots, and want to partner with you we will let you know.
In most cases we will offer you our producer and consulting services. This is ideal for those creators with some budget, and needing guidance on next steps, and connecting to different talent to put a pitch packet together. These are services we can offer you at an hourly rate.
Lastly, if you have the funding and looking for full animation production services please contact us through our client services division, Moonward Studios.
We are currently accepting submissions. While we would like to respond to all submissions, due to the high quantity of submissions and our limited time we may not be able to reply.
Please email the, above linked, Submission Release Form to studio@milleranimation.com when it’s completed, and wait for a reply from us before sending any material. Thank you!
