I don't think I've explicitly shared what these characters are, but yeah, Hazel and Jessica are Afro-Latin (with the Latin part being Puerto Rican), and Manny and Carrie are Mexican.

Hispanic Heritage Month just came to an end, but here's some art anyway!

Found a workprint of LIL' ROBOT GIRL that mainly consisted of rough animation, so I thought I'd throw together another comparison reel. From animatic to rough to final!

Backgrounds from LIL' ROBOT GIRL (2025), my junior year film at SVA I believe I've said before, all the BGs for LRG were hand drawn on paper, left as pencil line, then scanned and colored digitally. (1/4)

Backgrounds from my UArts sophomore year film, Analog Memories (2024) Was going through a bunch of files and folders for films and came across these. I realized I hadn't shared any of them (probably in part due to the closure of UArts occupying my brain space at the time) (1/3)

Hazel meets her new neighbors, the Carters, but is particularly getting herself acquianted with the teenage son, Marcus.

As someone who has written for multiple of what people label as "the big indie animated shows", it's truly frustrating to only ever see the same few popular cartoons be discussed. There are so many different animated projects made by a vast sea of creators to explore. They deserve your attention!

Cowabunga! I had given the TMNT the Klasky Csupo design treatment for fun not anticipating how well they'd translate, here's a the full collection! I imagine a Thornberrys crossover surrounding them travelling to NYC to investigate reports of mysterious turtle like cryptids 🍕

Hey! If you saw the Dream Hoppers segment from my SB S12 Retrospective & are wondering who these 2 characters are, these are my OCs! Burne and Crest! I've had these designs cooking since about 2023 & it was actually Noah's idea to include them as a cameo Maybe you'll see them again...maybe not...

This features a first for me, as @themoontoon.bsky.social had done the keyframes for the second and third shots here, so I was responsible for in-betweening them. It's been an honor to contribute so much to this series, and I want to thank Leah for giving me the opportunity to have done so!

It probably did, but I haven't had their pizza in so long that I'm curious to try it again somehow Also last time I ever went, the location got rid of their Nicktoons Racing too, so I'm inclined to agree with your friend lol

I hate that storyboards have become expected to be final clean animation poses with breakdowns in perfect perspective. this is not how it was supposed to be. let the animators animate! (I say as both a boarder and an animator)

Honestly, not at all. I still enjoyed the movie and the genuine hard work of all the artists involved definitely shines through.
