Storyboards are where you get everything locked down, refined, and story solid. It makes for less rework, where budgets can balloon. But cutting down time given to the story artists to iterate makes for less solid work, esp when they are made to time, animate and layout too.

"just go indie" I live in the US and need health insurance. Name a single indie production that has ever offered their workers health insurance. (In a better world the US would have universal healthcare like a civilized country but unfortunately we are barbarians)

reminder to myself that animation twitter is no different from the rest of twitter

Day 04!!! Let’s go The Animation Guild // #WeAre839!!! UNION STRONGGGG! 🔥✊🔥 #StoryCraftUnite #StandWithAnimation

Animation is capable of literally anything. You just have to give us time + resources to do it. Abusing your crews + underpaying them gives you lackluster results and burnout. Imho it’s more efficient to run crews properly. #StandWithAnimation

We’re never going there. Creativity is made, not generated. You can read more at procreate.com/ai ✨ #procreate #noaiart

Earlier this year jermz 🧨 and I started a collaboration with the goal to do a 2D animated spin on three scenes from the awesome movie #everythingeverywhereallatonce. I think they turned out better than I could ever imagine! :D

EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE: ANIMATED This was a fun vis dev exercise that I highly recommend artists to try out: Take a live-action film, choose 3 frames, and design your own take for an animated remake. Flex your vis dev muscles and see what you come up with!
