Happy Zelda 40th anniversary!

We are in the rare and unique position where indie animation can be unique creative visions unfettered by corporate interference or IP shit Why would you, as the fan, demand that the vision of the creator, who you claim to love, bend to your demands Kill your inner exec

palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

I am starting a studio! We are small and scrappy and have no money. Why am I doing this? Because the only ones who can protect art are the ones who value it. Disney using AI? Yuck. Netflix buying WB? Also yuck. In 10 years what is even going to be left.

Standing up against these laws, both in the USA and numerous other nations, is integral for a whole host of issues Gaza? Minnesota? Venezuela? If these and more matter to you, then you need to get active because these laws will handicap any online organizing for MANY causes

If indie animation is gonna have any viability, I must stress that it is important to have a good producer to figure out the money and manage the production team. I will keep banging this drum because it isnt enough to have skilled artists or writers without someone who can manage resources.

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this 10-FRAME dance, by the talented @panzumavinga! Love all the secondary motion and overlap here, particularly useful to see the forms beneath the trailing elements of hair and fabric. #anime #animation #2danimation #manga

Update: Adobe Animate will continue to be available in the future, with support in "maintenance mode" only (security & bug fixes), there will be no new features.

If anyone else wants an Adobe Animate alternative, I can’t recommend Moho enough. It’s affordable, it’s efficient, it’s been used in feature films from Cartoon Saloon like Wolfwalkers, and the best part…NO Ai whatsoever.

RIP Adobe Animate :-\ helpx.adobe.com/animate/kb/e...
