Hi lemouth, thanks a lot, I'm very happy that you like it! And I would be very interested in hearing whether your kid would understand it. One of my future plans is indeed to translate the voiceover into other languages, but since I do not have that big of a budget right now, I can only afford the English version at the moment. On YouTube users can submit their own subtitles, which could be an ok alternative in the beginning instead of voiceovers in different languages.
In the long run you are not meant to pay anything for this. Actually also not now. If you submit a layman version of your article on thefairjournal.com you are automatically eligible for cartoon production after the layman summary has earned in 100$ from ads (1/3 of my production costs). But since nobody has submitted a layman version yet, you are very likely to get a cartoon made sooner than that, because I am currently looking for new articles to convert :)
And thank you very much for the suggestion about linking to the original post on thefairjournal.com! I will do that right away!
All the best, Jonas
I will think about it, as I already have written several summaries of my own articles on my own blog. Most of the time, I discuss research that I find interesting and made by others; once in a while, I however chat about my own articles.
Of course, if we go that way, I will have to significantly alter them to avoid any self-plagiarism issue, but this may require a reasonable amount of work... Anyways, this is for the future (as I still struggle with university duties related to the beginning of the new term).
