Murder Drones

Murder Drones is an upcoming Australian-American computer-animated post-apocalyptic science fiction web series created by Liam Vickers, produced by Glitch Productions and funded by Screen Australia for GLITCH. It is set to be the fourth animated series by Glitch Productions, after Meta Runner, Ultra Jump Mania and Sunset Paradise.

The series was teased on June 26th, 2021, and announced on October 8th, along with the release of a trailer. The pilot is ready to premiere on October 29th.

Synopsis
After humanity caused its own extinction by blowing the Earth’s core, causing a winter apocalypse, robots known as Worker Drones start to roam around until a group of Murder Drones start to murder them for reasons.

Production
Liam Vickers had already achieved notoriety for the 2D animated series CliffSide and Internecion Cube, both of which are unfinished. When he was picked up by Glitch Productions to be a showrunner, he had no experience in 3D animation, so the company would train him.

On August 6th, Liam released the full version of "Disassembly Required", the song that plays in the teaser. The video description reveals the character seen in the teaser to be "V", one of the titular Murder Drones.

By the time the series was announced, it had been worked on for one year.
