Before the typical Gumball intro appeared. Anyways, the screen was black for a couple of seconds. Someone quickly logged into their e-mail so that we wouldn't all have to watch it separately since that would be kinda stupid with us all in the same room watching the video on separate phones- you get it. There was no episode name after 'The' however. The video title lead us to believe it was an episode of Gumball. Probably because it was actually in fucking English. I do remember the video attachment's name though. Hell if I remember what it said, I deleted that e-mail years ago. The e-mail contained a video attachment along with some garbled text. We all brought it up on our phones to find that it wasn't from any of our work e-mails. But then we laughed it off thinking it must just be a mass e-mail from a higher up with some announcement. One after the other the sounds of 'dings' and 'pops' were filling the air.Įveryone looked around at each other noticeably startled. Then one by one everyone's phone began to go off. We were laughing and animating a scene where a pizza grows legs and crawls out a window- it makes more sense in context I swear.Īnyways, me and many other colleagues were huddled around the computer and working on little details in the animation when I heard my phone's notification sound effect go off. All I remember was that it was the middle of Season 2 and we were working on the episode 'The Game'. incident happened all the way back in 2012. But even now it is hard for me to talk about this. The reason I am writing this in the first place is because it would be hard to find out who I am. We have people working on 3D animation, 2D animation, character design, photography, It's crazy. The show is done in a mixed media format and due to that there is a lot of people working on it. All you need to know is that I'm an animator. Even after the events I am about to describe I am still grateful for my job, which is why I am going to be very vague about exactly what I work on.

I am fucking honored to be animating with these guys.

For those who don't know, Gumball is a show that follows the adventures of an anthropomorphic cat named Gumball and his adopted brother Darwin who happens to be a fish with legs.

It's one of the lesser known shows on the network nowadays but I still feel very honored to have had worked on it. I am one of the many many people who have worked on the Cartoon Network show, The Amazing World of Gumball.
