Cheers to 10 years of Overwatch! I still feel fortunate to have worked with the amazing team of developers that created this game. I'll also always brag about the time my Mercy animation was on Jeopardy! -- even if none of the contestants knew the response. www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8W-...

Superseed is looking for senior animators. Work with a great studio, great team, and fully remote! You might get to work with some of my rigs too 🤫

A screenshot of a job posting on LinkedIn for senior animators. Text reads:

Senior Cinematics Animator — Experience with game cinematics and/or feature films. The focus is on keyframe animation, though some mocap work is involved.

Senior/Principal Gameplay Animators — Experience with various gameplay systems and both keyframe and mocap pipelines.

If you’re interested, feel free to reach out at contact@superseedstudios.com. Thank you!"

I’ve set up quite a few calls in the past few days with my leads & key people. What for? Simply to tell them that I trust them. That they don’t need my permission to make decisions & push for excellence. That even if they make a mistake I have their back. I believe, that this is the way.

I guess I'll join in too! #WhatAGameDevLooksLike Heya friends, I'm Joel! I'm the Principal Animator at Giant Squid working on Sword of the Sea! Wow, I guess I've been in game dev for almost 10 years now! Not at GDC, but I gave a talk in the Tricks of the Trade a few years ago! Big fan of dragons.

Photo of me, sitting at my desk. My long brown hair is down in front of both of my shoulders. I'm wearing glasses with blue translucent frames and a pink t shirt. In the background you can see a large 4x4 IKEA Kallax shelf with my games collection, and a 2x2 farther back with my turntable and record collection. There are various plush Yoshis sitting around and a Yoshi rug peeking out between the two shelves.

Not really complaining, but my whole discover feed on here is cats. Every so often a dog, which is nice too.

With the industry in a slump and money even harder to come by we wondered if we could help, in our small but unique way, by offering our services to those in need for FREE! A thread...

Wait. Wait wait. I’ve been real busy the past few days, but my wife just told me about the mice thing. Transgendered mice!? He. No, he said this? With a straight face? I can’t. Oh my. I just. Wow I can’t. This would be so hilarious if it wasn’t so scary.

I said this to my team recently & feel it’s worth repeating here. When you’re part of a healthy animation team you are never alone. Your peers help you refine ideas, push through blockers, & support you to succeed. Building this type of culture on your own team starts with just one thing: trust.

Hi Friends, I was sick a couple weeks ago which allowed me to get some rest and(more importantly) catch up on some cartoons. Don't sleep on the new TMNT show on Paramount! Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is definitely worth your time. So great to see such expressive and fun #animation.
