At the Drawing Room in Los Feliz and a DJ who lives near me says Charli XCX is always at a restaurant on my street. This is my life now

My high school reunion was unexpectedly satisfying. Like a lot of people I have a lot hang-ups about my time there but last night felt like a nice way to close the book. And the after party was proof I made the right choice in getting out of town as soon as I could. Never peak in high school

Can’t stop thinking about the ending to DIGGER, one of the bleakest things to be released by a major studio in years. In DIGGER We Trust

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

DIGGER: I don’t think it totally works (never as funny as it thinks it is) but the film is always grotesquely compelling and the deep cynicism regarding protest art is refreshing. An invective-filled rant that knows it won’t accomplish anything

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Odds of me loving DIGGER are unfortunately very high

Oh man, LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU reference, we were a very cool high school

Looking at my high school yearbook to prep for my reunion. You can tell ANCHORMAN had just been released on DVD

I’ve lived in my new place in Los Feliz for two days and I’ve already talked to my fellow tenants more than I ever did at my old place in the 8.5 years I lived there.

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

The rumors are true! I moved to a new pad in Los Feliz. Will I finally take up improv? Only time will tell

Movers are worth every penny just for transporting my standing desk

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

That is technically true BUT Bob’s Burgers started after I graduated college so in my heart I will never concede this point

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

A friend pointed out that I’ve now worked on a MacFarlane, a Groening and a Judge: the three architects of Fox Sundays. I can retire in peace

Oh wow, you aren’t kidding, I cleaned-up a scene using that BG in the third image waaaay back in Season 3

Last day freelancing on KING OF THE HILL! I’ve had a great time working with old friends and making new ones and I’ve drawn the best hands in my life

Oh god, I misspelled Milt Kahl, they’re revoking my Animation Guild membership

Rewatching THE JUNGLE BOOK as research and yeah, Shere Kahn really is spectacular, Milt Karl is the best to ever do it, it’s all true etc

It figures, I’m moving to Los Feliz and I finally get a podcast invite

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

After almost nine years living in LA, I finally did my first podcast. Trying to get on Call Me Daddy next

Spent three hours trying to solve some staging and acting choices, drove him and solved all of them as I sat parked in the driveway. Storyboarding!

What’s it like working in Hollywood? Most days you sit in your cube drawing away but every once in awhile celebrities are in your vicinity. It’s wonderful

Tonight is the premiere of the 400th episode of AMERICAN DAD, an episode so crazy you won’t believe it actually got made. It’s another testament to the inhuman skills of the crew and further proof that we should run for at least another 400 episodes

Before my hiatus ends, I’m making a brief stopover in Arlen, Texas. Looking forward to hearing more about this propane business

Rewatched TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME with some friends who are viewing TP for the first time. Not a horror film but it makes every horror film of the past decade look so juvenile. Maybe the most transcendent performance an actor has given since THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC. A masterpiece

Excited to get back to work tomorrow so I’ll be too busy to post on Bluesky

That psychotic Elizabeth Holmes trailer does confirm my suspicions that 21st century America has been trapped inside one long episode of NATHAN FOR YOU

Do you think Ti West asked his old pal Greta Gerwig advice on directing big budget studios when he got the EBENEEZER gig?

000

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

I will say, Swanberg’s finest hour is still YOU’RE NEXT, where he and Ti West play dumbass party guests.

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

THE SUN NEVER SETS: There is something very admirable to the fact that of all the mumblecore filmmakers Joe Swanberg is the only one stubbornly continuing to make romantic dramedies, the deadest of all film genres.

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

I’m seeing the new Joe Swanberg film, THE SUN NEVER SETS, today which reminds me of one of the all-time great tweets

Only failing of the HELLRAISER house at Horror Nights is that there’s no room where you enter a into a complex negotiation with Pinhead over whose soul he should take

Coworker told me Facebook Marketplace is THE place for free moving boxes and I think that’s underselling it. I may never need a box ever again

Thought I was going to have a leisurely September before I start back up on AD but I just got offered a short freelance gig too good to turn down. So my hiatus ends Monday night!

020

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

She was! I didn’t see her but a couple coworkers did. She did all her famous bits

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Oh it’s so much fun. Hellraiser house is pretty spectacular, especially of you’re a fan. Sinners is blast too. I’ve heard the Orlando original houses are great this year, should be a fun time!

Asset-sharing among vendors can be complicated. Just ask my friends in feature trying to negotiate workflow between LA and Vancouver!

010

Ryan Rosendal @ryanrosendal.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Yeah, the cost of CG characters is upfront when you have to build the rigs etc. So a one scene character like Bugs makes sense to do in 2D vs Coyote who is in half the movie. I’m guessing they had a few vendors and logistically it made sense for some sequences to be hand-drawn only vs a mix
