Animation schools lean more & more towards teaching Harmony over hand drawn now, but I still think they need to build the foundation on hand drawn (obv). That said, rig-based animation has a lot to offer for education...

I see so many grad reels where it's all on tweens & there aren't enough breakdowns, drawing swaps happening on the key frames like a slap in the face. I'd honestly rather see grad reels on 4s, 6s & 8s, than auto-tweened on 1s. At least I'd get a sense of timing & decision making!

Classic cartoons from the '30s & 40s are some of my all time favourites. The art style, the animation style, the wildly creative slapstick & visual gags (not the racism tho...), but I'm not really into the revival stuff. I totally get the desire to do it, it's just not for me.

Very disappointed that I'll have to waste two tickets to tonight's @GaryGulman show due to illness. We were really looking forward to it and I was hoping to get something like a little poster for my 5 year old, who's a big fan of the Misfit audiobook

"the birds in the war zone make nests from the fiber optic cables left by the killer drones" is the kind of thing you'd expect as a throwaway line of background in a cyberpunk story, and yet

It wouldn't have cost much or taken very long to pay humans to make these visuals and they would have looked way better

AI's simultaneously destroying the environment and culture as a whole. The lamest people who think Cinema Sins is film criticism are going to burn the world down "fixing" movies and turning lazy nostalgic celebrity fanfiction into prompts.
