OK KO is hands down one of my all time favorite shows & one of my biggest inspirations. Thank you Ian & your entire crew for all the hard work you put into this masterpiece
Ian Jones-Quartey @ianjq.com · 4d agoOK KO premiered 9 years ago?! Today, the show is not available to stream legally but is being kept alive by a devoted fanbase who I hear from all the time. You guys are the best. Thank you for watching the show!
I’m slowly coming to the realization that the film Robots left a bigger impact on me & my art than I originally thought 😅

I’ve been working on solidifying the visual style/art direction & made an update to Hal’s design. He’ll have his older outfit for the animatic, but he’ll look like this moving forward. #DimBulbs #characterdesign #indieanimation #ocsky

Im only sharing these two for now because they’re already posted by the Farfetched team but I look forward to sharing the rest and so much more!!
Earlier this month, we hosted our THIRD Discord pitch day event which allows indie creators to practice showcasing their work in front of a small audience!! 💛 We had some great projects shared this time! Find more info on them here: docs.google.com/document/d/1... #indieanimation
Avatar Studios cited chatgpt in their character sheets??? Doing cultural research on chatgpt without any further fact checking…

🔔Project announcement!🔔 That's right, the squires are heading to the small screen! For the last few months I've been plugging away at a squires for hire animated short. We're in pre-production right now, but expect a kickstarter and a casting call for voice actors real soon.
Just applied for both a volunteer a paid job, hopefully one of them leads to something
I was planning on posting another #wip video today, but would anyone be interested in a video showing how I did certain effects for this shot? Just asking b/c I had fun making this one & I thought it’d be a way to be more interactive w/people. #DimBulbs #animatic #indieanimation
Sorry for being super late for this, but congrats to @thethreetomes.bsky.social for reaching their f1st two stretch goals!! They’re still accepting late pledges if anyone wants to still support them. Please help them reach their third goal!! 🙏
thethreetomes.bsky.social@thethreetomes.bsky.social · 2w agoLate pledges are on if folks still want to help if they can. It looks like that third stretch goal is still just out of reach unfortunately due to a canceled pledge. (Stuff happens, it's A okay) So if folks wanna still help you still are able! www.kickstarter.com/projects/the... #indieanimation
One animator put it plainly: “You have no idea how frustrating it is to see press release after press release touting how much money our animated film made and how many nominations we got; then [the studio] turns to people who have worked here forever and says, ‘We don’t need you anymore.’” Heh.
Hollywood Can’t Survive Without Animation. So Why Won’t the Industry Respect It?
Animated films made billions in 2026 while Pixar and Netflix cut jobs. Inside animation's paradox and its long shut-out from the best picture race.
