I've been playing a lot of dressmaker and the characters are fun but i am praying for some future UI updates when it comes to pattern piece labeling. My brain cries at the amount of attempts it takes me to understand what piece 'left left front' is and what way its pointing when i put it down.

Cartoon Brew@cartoonbrew.bsky.social · 5d ago

The creators of ‘Get Jiro!’ wanted to push the limits of what they could pull off in animation. That included an ambitious one-take action sequence that required mapping every camera move before animating a single frame. Here's how they did it: www.cartoonbrew.com/series/get-j...

Om jameel :I am facing a critical surgery; I suffer from a heart valve prolapse &uterine hemorrhaging, enduring pain&agony.I appeal to your hearts to save me so I can hold my kids again.

STUDENT ANIMATORS: Please do not send a fucking Canva slideshow as your portfolio. Whatever fuckass professor told you to do this is giving bad advice. A YouTube link or hell even a link to a Google Drive video is better than navigating this

im having one of those animal crossing bad luck days where I just trip and drop things. I barely survived trying to bake cookies. I think my hands invented new ways to make a mess.

Hammam is a volunteer humanitarian nurse treating Gaza's wounded since the war began. He urgently needs our help: his family is starving & homeless, and his brother is disabled & suffers from severe seizures. Any donation -even small ones- can help get food & medical care chuffed.org/project/1844...

anivera.tv www.instagram.com/aniveratv/ Someone is doing it, someone's trying to make a streaming service for animation and is identifying that we need a base to build on. Def joining the mailing list, im intrigued by their pitch on instagram. This is what we need 100%. #indieanimation

Me and my friend sat down with our blue sprite and pizza to watch the second episode and it was draw droppingly intense and gorgeous to the eye. Lovely tribute at the end too <3 . Congrats to the whole team for pulling it off yet again!

I could've never imagined working with such a spectacular & skilled crew, making something so gruesome & beautiful, which is what I love from the horror genre. So proud of our team & cast. And to those waiting, hope you enjoy, or at the very least, hope it makes you flinch. #knightsofguinevere

Om jameel:Following the shock of her tent collapsing&the loss of all their possessions,om jameel suffered uterine hemorrhaging complicating her existing heart valve condition.She requires a surgery costing $200 to stop the bleeding A critical surgery; you are the saviors😭 chuffed.org/project/1839...

The other thing I like a lot about this, is that you cant do a proper parody without love and sincerity. Its easy to mock something, but to truly understand it is what leads to comedy. This is such a great example of how animation can capture a very specific feeling - I UNDERSTAND THIS FEELING.

The idea of bringing in AI experts is such a huge red flag for many reasons, but it mostly just shows that the person suggesting it has no idea how to solve problems

I'll reconvene the Housing Innovation Task Force and bring in AI experts to find new ways to speed up housing approvals and reduce planning costs. We’ve cut red tape and made it easier and cheaper to build homes in Ottawa, but there’s more work left to do.

Human beings process information through narrative, through story. We think in stories, remember in stories, plan for the future in stories, worry in stories, dream in stories and connect with one another through stories. When we read to children we embody our deeply human birthright as storytellers

lol like no matter HOW you slice it, this is objectively ridiculous. One person has majority control over two MAJOR news broadcasts and nearly ALL entertainment streams, including children programming, globally. ONE person. A single human being.

Paramount has closed its $81 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. Billionaire David Ellison now controls: —CNN —CBS —HBO —Paramount —Warner Bros —Discovery —Skydance —Showtime —DC Studios —Nickelodeon —Cartoon Network —Food Network —MTV —Comedy Central —HGTV —TBS —TLC

the streaming boom absolutely destroyed the entertainment industry, man. it's gonna be very weird to look back on it. 100 years of companies operating normally and it completely falls apart in a few years because of, effectively, wall street gambling

you may have noticed that animation has never been more in-demand & in the zeitgeist and yet, seemingly, never have media conglomerates been less willing to produce it. you may also notice these guys get multimillion dollar severance packages after they gut a studio. there is probably no connection

Henry Gilbert (Beloved Podcast Personality)@talkinghenry.bsky.social · 5d ago

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:

"OWL RLY" Acrylic and paint marker on birch panel. My piece for the Hoot art show, part of the Ottawa International Animation Festival this year. It's up right now for another 2 days at Beyond the Pale Brewing in the Byward Market. Painting is also for sale! #art #owl #retrogaming

"Octopal" - 6"x24" - acrylic and paint marker on gallery depth birch panel. Done up originally for the art party in June 2026 at All City Barbershop. Just an artistic freedom octopus in the colours I was feeling. Still available if anyone is interested. #art #SciArt #invertart

She's yelling about graphic novels again. I wrote a blog post about how to track work hours and do the math to build better work schedules. This speaks to graphic novelists specifically but it's good info for any freelancer!
