I’m out of state for a little so while I’m here… Bluesky suuucks! Texas sucks more! I’m not giving any of these for the sake of social media when I am most certainly not a child. This is complete nonsense.

Bluesky wants my social security number, credit card, or ID

When I got to visit and tour Cartoon Saloon last year, this is what they were animating on the second floor. I am very excited to see that come full circle and can’t wait to watch Julián when it releases.

What the heck, why is the Among Us show actually this good? The humor is on point and the clues line up perfectly for the whodunnit aspect. What I wouldn’t give to write on a show like that

I’m finally watching season 4 of Vox Machina and maaan. Episode 9 is maybe the best of the series so far. It’s everything I love about the show.

Animated stones, chalk and scrap. This is Machini -- an incredible film by two artists from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. We've loved Machini for years. It's our honor to premiere it online for the next two weeks, and to tell its story: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/congolese-...

I think a lot more shows should be greenlit with this mentality. Target audience? Ehhh probably that gaggle of weirdos over there? Plus myself. I’m also in the gaggle of weirdos.

What makes the greatest art of literally any kind is intentionality. Every scene, every detail, every word all has to be intentionally put there by someone. Ai can’t do anything but rob you of those choices. It tosses everything together based on what the algorithm says other people are doing.

Lmao, I don't forgive you, you knew full well about Gen AI and how its effecting the Animation Industry, aswell as how its destroying the enviroment and yet you still bought in. Not to mention your weird creepy misogynistic analogy about using Gen Ai in animation which you've yet to apologise for.

Good!! Doesn’t change how we’ll see him though. You can’t heel turn on every artist everywhere by celebrating the grift one second, then back out of it just as soon as you get backlash for it and pretend it’s all patched up perfectly.

Idk guys, I think the fact that a guy synonymous with supporting creatives of all experience levels and backgrounds in the animation industry and indie who makes unapologetically personal art suddenly heel turning to become an ai sellout with a deeply concerning analogy to boot is getting to me

“Creative breakthroughs happen when visionary storytellers are given access to transformative tools”-- Actually, creative breakthroughs happen when people don't have to drink brown water from data center waste. This is not cool or accessible, this is disingenuous & disappointing.

Hey creatives: Folks will remember. If you were aggressively against AI, like Gutierrez was as recent as last year, and then suddenly turn around and go NO I GET IT NOW IT'S AMAZING as soon as you get a project with a big payday? Your peers will not forget that. You will never be trusted again.

I have been a playtester for Spirit Crossing for about a year now, and I really really love it! Join us in the Crosslands! Ride a fluffalo (flying llama, obviously)! Squeeze a hopping blob into ink and turn fish into paper! Normal stuff happens here and it’s great.

A theory I’ve had for a bit is this film will feature Godzilla more as a force of nature or neutral force than the nuclear war allegory of the first, hence the “Minus Zero.” Then in a potential 3rd film, Godzilla would be the more recent heroic or protective figure for a “Godzilla Plus One”

It’s kind of comforting to see every kind of artist suffers from this. There’s always the slog of feeling awful about your work before it really clicks. Or even if it doesn’t click, you’ll learn from it! My worst drafts and scripts have led to my best! Making something is always always worth it.

In celebration of Sora shutting down, I've been inspired to actually start my next script that I hope will someday be animated by REAL human animators!! It's a pilot script for a fantasy series inspired by Norse and Sámi myths, folklore, and history called Tusk.
