TL:DR

Make a narrative animation! Be influenced by fables. Focus on the humanity of stories. Your audience is Demons! Demons devour stories with SOUL.
SPEND AS LITTLE TIME ON IT AS POSSIBLE. CUT ALL CORNERS. BAD IS GREAT.

Make choices without judgment. Low effort. Low, low, low. Make things that are profound, or have absurd circumstances, or are visually interesting. Consider impact. Less shocking, more intelligent.

LOOSE FABLES III

All hail Lizard King!! The CEO of Vilecom; the premier TV network in hell. The King has decreed that you, his most entertaining demon minions, give him new shows for on-air programming.
Vilecom Market Research has determined that the content demons can’t get enough of, is FRESH FABLES! CEO Lizard King demands that you give the fiends what they want: Hell Fables.

A NEW AGE...

OUR TIME IS NOW!

TO: DEMONS
FROM: THE DESK OF CEO LIZARD KING
DATE: JUNE 2ND 2025
SUBJECT: HELL FABLES

MEMO
          Effective immediately, all employees are required to provide Vilecom Network with a short story for programming. The Tortoise and The Hare doesn't have the same ZING it used to, we need fresh takes. We want NEW original stories; and as we've learned demons fucking love human stories. (I can say the word "fucking" because this is hell, and I AM YOUR BOSS!)

HAVE IT ON MY DESK BY JULY 6TH, FILTHY MINIONS!

Signed,
THE DEVIOUSLY GREAT CEO LIZARD KING, xoxo
Lizard King, CEO
Details
• The short must be narrative. Tell us something original.
• It must be a story conveying a moral or truth about human nature.
• You can think of the moral, but PLEASE don’t spell it out.(ei. no "And that's why you never ... etc.")
• These stories can be told through the lens of animals, humans, demons... as long as there is a SOUL that the viewing public of hell can DEVOUR.
