    Finally sat down and tried grease pencil. Animation's a little janky as I had a bit of trouble getting comfortable with it. Also messing with a method for hand painted 3D BGs involving baking, projection painting, and re-baking! #blender #greasepencil

    Young artists/writers/animators/directors are going to come to their respective industries with their UNIQUE viewing/reading history, and that'll shape their sensibilities in a way that's specific to them and that's exactly how it's supposed to work.

    Having looked at a LOT of storyboarding portfolios lately, I'm shocked at how often I still see screen direction problems, flat/centered compositions, and unmotivated camera moves/ cuts. Honestly if yall just nail these basics you'll be further ahead than you probably think.

    Hey storyboard youths, don't forget to give your characters something to actually do in your scenes

    Spiderverse makes me feel excited for the medium in a way that I almost never experience anymore and I'm real grateful for it.

    I haven't done a fully cleaned/colored/composited bit of animation since I did this so I guess I found my New Year's Resolution

    More animation showrunners should be...animators (or artists)
