new blog post about: makin' it easier to integrate elaborate (or not) contextual character animation stuff into gameplay in @sleightofhand.game. Like all the best shit, this is not so much technically impressive as workflowily excellent. www.joewintergreen.com/contextual-a...

It's been 3 years working on No Rest for the Wicked with Moon Studios. 🌖 With the latest co-op update out and all the great feedback coming from players, it felt like a good moment to share a small reel of the project. Let’s go. Another year, another Wicked Animations ! 😁 #animation #gamedev

When rigging it's important to check your progress frequently using the Wiggle Test® #rigging #technicalanimation #maya

This shot was already challenging and working through difficult days and a long internet shutdown made it even harder for me. With @keyojimbo.bsky.social feedback and guidance, I was able to push through and practice in the process. 🍭 #animation #3danimation

Some days the world feels scary. When the war started, my hand was shaking on the mouse but I kept animating. Even now, with an unclear future I still animate. It's one of the few things I can control. I put my heart into characters, hoping to create games that show a more beautiful world.❤️

It's been a month since I started learning Godot, I'm really loving the engine! Super satisfying, I'm very happy with the progress working a few hours a week on my free time. Once I'm done with this sandbox I'll release it as a Live Wallpaper for Android. (still lots of ideas to test!) #Godot

Ok this is now an Android project lol Locking to 30 fps and starting to rewrite the movement to not rely on physics anymore. This capture is still using physics forces to repel the crabs bodies. #godot

Another video showing how to study and use reference, and when to let it go. And also to reemphasise the importance of blocking and experimentation before moving to spline and polish. reference footage from ericjacobus.bsky.social #animation #mentoring animdiversityfund.bsky.social

Finally, new animation! I started this almost 4(!!) years ago to practice animating on 2s & get more comfortable animating hands. This piece has taken so long that I don't know if I've leveled up, but finishing it matters more than perfection. Music: Pop Culture by Madeon

This might be a shot in the dark but are there any animators with ADHD and are diagnosed or assessed with ASD? If so please shoot me a DM or comment below! I’d love to ask you some questions!
