As a male, I play a female nicknamed Kitten in Pokemon X and feel all warm and special when the characters call me that?

This year Dreamworks is celebrating 20 years of animation on TV and the big screen. Among the signs of the celebration is The Art of Dreamworks Animation, a new hardcover book edited by Ramin Zahed. It’s available later this month from Abrams Publishing. “Brimming with concept art, preproduction designs, and character sketches, DreamWorks Animation marks the studio’s 20th anniversary and offers unprecedented behind-the-scenes access into its archives. An introduction by DreamWorks cofounder Jeffrey Katzenberg provides insider perspective on the studio’s most popular films, as does running commentary from artists and directors on all of DreamWorks’ 30 films to date.”  By which they mean films like Kung Fu Panda, Madagascar, and How to Train Your Dragon. Order it now at Amazon.

I've recently been thinking about the term "anthropomorphism," which Wikipedia describes as "attribution of human form or other characteristics to anything other than a human being," and I started wondering whether any word describes the opposite sort of idea. After some thought and searching, I came across the term "zoomorphism," which more or less fit my criteria: Wikipedia describes zoomorphism as "the shaping of something in animal form or terms," and one of the several examples listed is "art that imagines humans as non-human animals."

I'm fairly new to the community, so I'm unsure how these ideas apply within the context of most furry art. Within the furry community, what is the practical difference between giving humans animal traits and giving animals human traits? How do the two relate?

This week’s illustration is from the Kickstarter campaign for the “Animalia” playing card set.

A bit of a slow week in the world of furry crowdfunding, no projects really jumped out, so I took a week off to work on reformatting furstarter.com with a new theme that actually shows all the projects (instead of a blank screen, argh) and will help show off Patreon pages. It’s definitely a work in progress, but you can see how Patreon stuff will show up here–broken down by category, of course.

New Projects

For a “complete” list of furry/fur-friendly crowdfunding projects, check out the Project Page and Patreon Page!

Art

Rabbit Tarot (reprint) (Ends: 4/24/2014)
An illustrated, bunny-focused tarot, water color, very children’s fantasy style art.
Over goal!

Artworks for Plus Bodies (Patreon Ongoing Funding)
Furry art and portraits with plus-sized (but not unrealistic) figures by Michael Tangherlini.
Tangherlini is also working on an apocalyptic fairy tale RPG over on WordPress, well worth seeing!

Audio

A Different Animal (Ends: 4/22/2014)
Animal-themed instrumental/synth pieces by Camkitsune
So many words :)

Children’s Product

Cat Canyon (Ends: 5/4/2014)

Sprocket, mascot of the Spokane Comicon, flies into action in his first comic!

B&W animal tees–the wolf and otter with guitars are particularly cute!

Film/Animation/Theater

Zoo University (Ends: 4/22/2014)

…halfway to goal. Huh.

Catladies: The Musical (Ends: 4/25/2014)
Political parody and constitutional cat lady lawyers in this NYC off-broadway musical
Looks like a bit of a non-starter.

A puppet show about the Monkey King! Not everybody can get to the UK, but you can see their work on Youtube

Bear Hug (Ends: 5/2/2014)
Live Action/2D story of imaginary friends, growing up, and a bear.
If this succeeds, I’m going need a box of tissues, I’m a sucker for “growing up” films.

Tabletop Games

Animalia: Tails Imperium cards (Ends: 4/23/2014)
Sparkling playing cards featuring chibi-ish and manga animals in a variety of fantasy roles
Over goal and working on stretch goals!

…Meh

DogeCards (Ends: 5/4/2014): A kind of cute, kind of funny card game featuring memehound Doge and his transplanetary adventures. And cryptocurrency. Because nothing’s funnier than a product based on a meme.

…Coming Soon

Griffin Ranger: The Novel (Coming Soon): Check out Rgibson’s Video for his upcoming Kickstarter, “Griffin Ranger.” Birds with guns!

…Just for fun

Dancers of WAR (Ends: 4/30/2014): 3rd-person shooter featuring weaponized dance, the creator of Johnny Bravo and the founder of Depeche Mode and Erasure. There is nothing that isn’t awesome here, except for the long, slow climb to goal.

Hello,

I'm not a furry, and to be up front and honest, I just have no interest in being one. However, I have a question, and I thought I'd ask the experts about it:

Last night at the VNV Nation concert, I saw the usual crowd of goths, rivet-heads, and future-pop fans . . . and about six furries in the crowd as well. The goths and industrial fans I expected to see. The furries were a surprise -- and truth be told, one had some pretty good moves on that floor. :-)

So, is there a connection between Furries and VNV Nation that I'm not aware of? Please enlighten me, here.

First, please forgive me for mistakes or if I violate any rules.I'm on mobile and I can't see the sidebar or type too well.

I don't really know where to start.I was introduced to the furry community about a year ago.Since then,I've had lots of fun making furry characters and I finally finished my actual fursona (a pretty kitty named Camisado ? ) I really want to find friends and rp partners in the community.I don't have any friends that are in it and my closest friend actually frowns upon it greatly. ): So yeah! I'm always open for a chat or rp! Talk to me and Cami sometime! (Or Avalon.Or Aviator.Or Cherí and Cherry.Or Jonas.Or Mallory.Heh I have a few :P )

I'd also like to state I don't fully understand some furry lingo and stuff.Haha,I really hope someone is patient enough to deal with my stupidity.:P Thanks to anyone who talks to or rps with me!!

Edit: Also,I decided to make another reddit account for exclusively fursona and furry stuff.Be on the lookout for FluffyFuzzyFurry lol! :P
