Multi-title deal kicks off with all 8 episodes of the animated sci-fi horror comedy now available on the streamer.
Prime Video has just announced a multi-title licensing deal with Glitch Productions for their creator-led animated sci-fi horror comedy web series, Murder Drones. The show has garnered over 270 million views on YouTube with its unique blend of humor, horror, and survival in a frozen post-apocalyptic world with hormonal - and sometimes murderous - robots. All eight episodes of the series are now available to watch on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
“Our mission has always been to creatively and systemically change the animation industry for the better,” said Glitch Productions founders, Kevin and Luke Lerdwichagul. “As part of this higher vision, we’ve partnered with Prime Video, who have agreed to support us and our future shows in a multi-title licensing deal. What this means is, we keep operating independently, doing what we’re doing, and Prime Video will give us the support necessary to do more for indie animation and creators than we could have previously. We will continue to keep full creative control over our series, and GLITCH Original series will always continue to be released on YouTube.”
Murder Drones was created, directed, and written by Liam Vickers. The series is produced by Glitch Productions.
