After flubbing his words during an important pitch meeting, Dilvus Shrivelman finds himself trapped in a thought spiral. Paranoid that he’s lost his only lifeline to success, he becomes desperate to prove that he’s still got what it takes to be a big time business boy. But desperation quickly takes him into some not-so-chill territory.

  • Note
    Tyler and Eric are lifelong best friends who have been working together creatively for 19 years; teaming up in junior high to write needlessly angsty punk music and eventually transitioning to a professional career in animation. Determined to face their demons through absurdity, they pair the dumbest ideas imaginable with deep emotional truths; luring audiences in with laughter and keeping them there with vulnerability. Their instantly recognizable visual style and comedic voice is highlighted through multiple Channel 101 primetime shows, as well as in content they’ve written and produced for FOX’s AOK, Cartuna, TruTV, Bleacher Report, and more. Under the name “Tiny Little Cartoons”, their social channels have amassed over 45 million views and 200k followers. They have also won multiple awards for their short film “ROCKS! The Musical”, and their new musical “Sucks To Be The Moon” premiered at Fantastic Fest 2022 and won Best Of Fest at the 2023 Hollywood Comedy Shorts Film Festival, Best Animated Film at Salute Your Shorts 2023 and Best Animated Film at Buffalo Dreams Fantastic Festival 2023.
