Well, the inevitable is happening: I'm starting a Patreon soon! The plan is to continue reposting Serenity Rose (with commentary!), record some short videos about various ZIM designs, and draw a weekly sketch or two. Also open to suggestions! (Other than "Don't do this, Aaron, you will die!")

Here's the rough animations I worked on for the MV of Rebecca Sugar's song, Ice Water! It still doesn't feel real that I got to help out on this beautiful project. I tried to squeeze in as much joy and happiness I feel when surrounded by my friends and peers who inspire me everyday. #animation

Before starting work on it, Ice Water was described as being classic anime inspired so I traced some classic anime scenes with the characters to try and get used to everything. Guess where each shot is from!

Another "Ice Water" shot breakdown: 8 seconds. 84 layers. 2.5 hours to render. BG by Alex Myung and Charles Hilton. This one was a beefy boi! #animation #compositing #vfx #icewater #jellybox

Been on the road and unable to hype this properly, but the first two episodes of Creature Commandos is out, and I just want to say what a career highlight it was to do VFX alongside such an all-star team! youtu.be/VdahDEpqPA8?...
