iiiiiiits #portfolioday ! Hi im Sam, I'm your favorite color designer's favorite color designer. I'm tiny, nonbinary, and looking for my next solid animation gig. It could be with YOOOOUUUU! 📧[email protected] 🌎www.samkestin.com 📸@SamKestin

Some of my ISCREAM backgrounds :o)

lets GOOOOOO

From working on the scripts for the Overwatch webtoon I have found out my brain simply cannot get "guard", "solider" or "piece" right on the first try. (and didn't in this post, be assured.)

Look, I truly do not know how wrestling works. But releasing all of The Wyatt Sicks after how successful the Halloween campaign with HHN was last year seems bonkers to me??? I assumed that was ramping them up for MORE action???

Got some new bees today! (The huddle is a bunch of attendants taking care of the queen inside the queen cage)

this happens a lot when you fear you can’t live up to your own tastes but nothing ever will on the first draft let it suck! it’s fine “writing is rewriting” is the truest aphorism revisions are where you make it sing all the first draft has to do is exist trust the process!

Good things are still possible, never give up

I am so glad I am not alone in my love and devotion to "Trap" (2024)

Finally saw “Exit 8” last night and I was really impressed by filmmaking and adaptation choiceS! First third is so true to the games mechanics that I was thinking “how.. will this be feature length..” and then it took a very smart turn that fully locked me in.

*watching new episode of Hacks* Maria: omg that’s *insert Internet personalities and writers from the show doing cameos* Me: baby please I don’t know who any of these people are 😭 Me 2 seconds later when a Ragatha cosplayer is in the background:

Shoutout to this cat I met at a Time Used Books in Lodi today 💪🐈

Wait I did skip ahead and I do like the song where his mom chews him out for being a weirdo

I’ve been on a mini road trip this weekend and after listening to Ben Platt’s cover of “Diet Pepsi” 20 times I thought I’d finally give Dear Evan Hanson a shot. Yall. I couldn’t do it. That show is diabolical in ways I wasn’t prepared for.

I’m finally jumping catching up with season 2 of Dorohedoro and the new opening WHIPS ASS!!!!!!!!!

Ok I’m going to be honest and say I haven’t seen the Insidious movies so I might be missing some important context but WHY is the SI in the title red. Like usually that’s done to highlight .. something? Another word? Clever context?? Am I supposed to read it as “in-yes-dious”?

I know literally nothing about Clarvicular except for anytime I read his name is say it the same way Raz says “Funicular!” In Psychonauts 2

Oh there’s an animated bloodborne movie being made?? Let me just *drops this on the floor for no reason*

Update: My Sister in Brooklyn didn’t get to meet The Walking Man from Exit 8 in the Subway but she DID get to meet him (and the director, Genki Kawamaru) at a screening

This is so horrifying on so many levels. Again, please call your members of congress and beyond - The states should fight this hard too. The impact is ... difficult to comprehend.

Oh! Fiona Dourif in a movie made by the team who did "Devil's Bath?" Which made me physically ill and ruined my week? Lets fucking GO

Texted my sister in Brooklyn IMMEDIATELY

Here's the number for the congressional switchboard. Please call your reps and senators. This man needs to be removed from office now. (202) 224-3121

"I asked chatgpt--" yeah well i asked my friend joe and i asked my friend jake and they said it was fhqwhgads

Welcome to Taskmaster!!! Would you like to play a game?

I don’t know who else’s YouTube algorithm is cursed to think they are a Cis Femme Mother of 3 but I get Nordstrom Rack ads constantly and they all start with a cartoony explosion sound followed by cheeky piano and I’m losing my mind

On this Trans Day of Visibility please let it be known I am VISIBLE and LOOKING FOR MORE WORK so I can REMAIN VISIBLE and also have money to pay rent

Got some new followers from the TADC comic, so just want to post a reminder for today

I’m so excited to finally talk about this!!!! This is the big project I’ve been writing on since last year!!! I really love these characters and it’s been a blast fleshing out the world with the Overwatch Team!

Happy Trans Day of Visibility ❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

That special moment of solidarity when I, in a Wyatt Sicks tank top, lock eyes with a dude in a Gir shirt at the gym.

You ever have a piece of popular media that you would actually like quite a bit just whiff past you for nearly 3 years? (Part 1)

On Monday, I start my final board rotation for "Starfire!" I'm looking for Full-Time or Freelance Supervising Directing, Directing, or Storyboarding opportunities- and I'll be available starting May 4th. And I just gave my site an update with some of my Adult Animation work! www.sam-king.net

Gonna be on a panel at Wondercon on Saturday, with hosted by my amazing manager, Sam Goff!

Hey, you should read this @parkermolloy.com piece on the collapsing of what is largely an intersex/DSD story into an anti-trans culture war frame. open.substack.com/pub/readtpa/...

if you want to know the history of this kind of policy, I made a podcast two years ago that explained why these tests make no sense, how they were already used and eventually abandoned by the IOC in the 80's and 90's, and the devastating impacts they have on real athletes: www.tested-podcast.com

The IOC has announced a trans and intersex athlete ban requiring an invasive SRY genetic test for female athletes. In the 20+ years trans women were eligible, only one ever competed and none ever medaled. This is solving for a problem that doesn't exist. www.nbcnews.com/sports/olymp...

Our "Forgotten Island" trailer just dropped!! So excited to reveal a sneak peek at what our team's been cooking!🫰💜🔥🇵🇭 youtu.be/i1EVeS7l7kU?... #dreamworks #forgottenisland

The “big chunky necklace to cover up the chest plate seam” of this is taking me out

This is how I feel watching the judging for Drag Race’s “family resemblance” challenge

Learning important life lessons from Cal (who is sadly not on bluesky)

Bluesky said it’s okay to crosspost so here are some Dunky Eggs from my IG. #akotsk

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking. I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

Me when I successfully give the dog her azodyl pills and the cat his Prozac in the morning.

Proof of Gorillaz’ gravitational pull. My fiancée who knew nothing about them came with me to House of Kong last night. Today, after I got home from work, she revealed she had listened to Demon Days, The Mountain, and Song Machine, had done a deep dive on the lore, and said “… I simply have to stan”

I am so HYPED for Dorohedoro season 2
