The Vegtoons Kickstarter project is one that aims to create an animated show around the idea of vegetarianism, not necessarily to convert carnivores. Described thus:
The show explores a variety of issues, concerns and assumptions surrounding the vegetarian lifestyle — ranging from the foods that vegetarians eat, to health and ethics, to relationships with family and loved ones. Each episode has a specific theme and therefore can be enjoyed on its own; however, the larger trajectory of the story unfolds over the entire series.
It’s a project that certainly looks promising from a number of angles, not least of which is the fact that it’s not aimed at kids but rather people in general. This is one to keep an eye on. Check out the teaser below or head on over to the Kickstarter page to watch the full pitch video.

I’m glad you’re covering Kickstarter campaigns. Cartoon Brew sure won’t!
Thanks Andrew. I can see their standpoint too though. I’m sure they get swamped with requests so it’s difficult to pick the best.
In any case, I only pick the ones I would trust, and I think Cartoon Saloon can be trusted 🙂
