3D Animator on CRASH, a Halo Machinima series, artist, writer. My YT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@armafala4195

My very first feature film that I completed almost 6 years ago is now available on digital! This, almost 2hr film, took me around 2 yrs to complete & was a huge learning experience in experimenting with this animation pipeline which I use to this day. Out on Prime or AppleTV!

Jorge, an animator was harassed for MONTHS by an OpenAI stan taking his wips and jamming them into SORA to "Fix" them. Because he dared to note GenAI companies have ruined the market for everything PC related. That's the type of people they are, its THAT black and white, #animation

Jorge R. Gutiérrez reflects on the backlash on his AI project in a new interview with Variety: “What I quickly learned is this is a black-and-white issue. You’re either pro or anti—there’s no in between. My intentions were good, but I was taking my family to hell by doing this.”

Actively annoyed by seeing some AI people smugly agree with each other that the reason we hate their shitty technology is that we resent it "lowering the barriers to entry" for the arts, which apparently the world of software development has always done.

Storyboard artists, often closest and most integral to realizing a director's vision, are a relatively cheap part of the process. Often their role is disparaged, or not even understood. And yet one of the main goals of AI in film production seems to be to replicate what they do.

A24 announces that they want to put storyboard artists out of work. That's what the headline should be written as. Becuase we should be honest about what these AI "tools" are trying to do, and who it is trying to circumvent. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

60% drop in reviews if people even smell AI on your game - full supports the investors, developers, and publishers that took a hard "no gen-AI" stance, despite grifters' proclamations that they were "going to be left behind".

Someone actually crunched the numbers, and using GenAI can decrease reviews for indie game on Steam (a useful proxy stat for sales) by as much as *58%* 🤖

Auliʻi Cravalho will be wonderful, and for anyone interested in getting a taste of Jessica Cruz before her show debuts. Reminder her best onscreen depiction at this time is unironically in the first Justice League x #Rwby movie. Jeannie Tirado crushed it.

First look at Jessica Cruz from ‘My Adventures with Superman’ Season 3. She will be voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho (‘Moana’) and will have her own spinoff series (‘My Adventures with Green Lantern’).

It's bizarre how repeatedly people keep hijacking the conversation about Accessibility away from things like closed captioning, colorblindness support, alt-text for screen-readers, etc, to "Games should be easier to play, books should be easier to read, and shows should be simple to understand"

hey man we used AI in the production process of this game but don't worry none of it made it in the game, it was a huge waste of time and money, and we could've just looked at stock photos at the end of the day. You have to accept the future.
