Reposting for #portfolioday !!! I'm Areg Savchenko, I'm a 2D Traditional Animator who's done work for a whole bunch of people!! I'm still on the hunt for full-time work so if you're interested, hit me up!

Coming Soon...

I feel like the use of “Isn’t She Lovely?” in the Digital Circus finale is less about praising the Jax we see in the show (who I would hardly call lovely), and more a way to mourn the healthy Jax who could have been if she ended up like Lee and didn’t succumb to her worst vices.

spam dong

I still stand by my suspicions about Gabriel Brown, and I believe people when they say he has hurt them. From personal experience, this kind of harm too often happens behind closed doors; I’ve been unfortunate enough to see it happen before. That is all I will say on the matter.

I’ve been having a hard time with the spotlight. I haven’t been as professional or responsible with my platform as I perhaps should be; with an audience this large, I can’t afford to potentially misuse my power. I’ll be scaling back my use of BlueSky; I need to be better than this.

…Man, it was pretty fucked up when Noelle abstracted.

In Miami now for Florida Supercon! The humidity here is like I’m somehow underwater, yet somehow that water is also on fire.

I've been rewatching Lost lately with my family, and it's been a trip down memory lane in the best way. The waits between episodes and seasons made the weight of expectations unbearable, and it's been refreshing to watch the show in a way where it's easier to see the whole picture for what it is.

People don't even care about listening to stories anymore they just wanna be right.

Being a part of recent fandoms has reinforced a lot of my dislike for theory culture. Theories on their own are fine - it’s natural and fun to have them! But when people get too attached to their preconceptions over the story actually being told, attitudes get SUPER toxic.

Starting to get annoyed that people are reading into my portrayal of Caine post-Episode 9 as him masking to be accepted. Jax just abstracted and Caine is trying to understand humans better. He’s just being more sensitive to everyone’s feelings in a VERY rough time. He’s still himself!

@alexrochonva.bsky.social @justtheclippy.bsky.social A little something I did yesterday bcause it was just too cute. #TADC #CAINE #Theamazingdigitalcircus #Fanart

Yall have been begging for 3 years and I'm FINALLY streaming Raggedy Ann & Andy Musical Adventure! Join me @kovox.net @ashleynichols.bsky.social @alexrochonva.bsky.social and @sonicmega.bsky.social for what I'm sure will be the most unhinged watchalong in existence. ⏬Link Below⏬

The kicker any time I see this shit is there are very clearly talented VAs out there that could do their best Gene Wilder. Like, think of how good Indiana Jones sounded in the most recent game. That was just Troy Baker doing his best Harrison Ford, and it was damn near perfect.

When I’m dead, if my estate ever signs over the rights to my voice to some corpo, I’m haunting them and their descendants til this planet burns up.

You know what makes this an extra layer of gross? Ideas like this are being conceived while actors are still alive. And these vultures are just waiting for them to be buried.

how do I ensure that my "estate" does not do this to me after I die

(writing this down)

Lore should serve the story, not the story serving the lore.

Damn, they’re like neck and neck now. …is it because i said caine was bottom

I think it'd be cool if people relearned they can just write fanfiction

I just want him to get a bit of that Pomni therapy y'know? This comes with the preface that since he let go of the blue ai, he said he "can't create like he used to," I read that as everything comes out just "a bit fucked" like the broken shapes he made as a red dot. #tadc #showtime

I’m reminded of how popular Gravity Falls still is despite having ended a decade ago. Sometimes, a good story made with intention is enough, and speaks for itself.

people really need to understand that it's okay for things to end media doesn't need to be perpetual, that's where we end up with 729471 mediocre simpsons seasons and marvel films

> Talks about Deltarune > People speculating that what I'm going to sing will be as Caine, a character who is not from Deltarune

So, I said fandubs of Deltarune Chapter 5 were less likely. But what if I did something else…? After all, you guys have been requesting that I sing more often, right?

Hasbro is facing backlash after reportedly telling Peppa Pig's cast of child actors to sign new contracts that allow the company to reproduce their voices using AI. https://bit.ly/4vqs0iJ

Finished Deltarune Chapter 5 Uh What now???

Determined.

TADC Alternate ending 🤭 #tadc #theamazingdigitalcircus #jax #pomni #glitchproductions

Comments like this also completely leave out poor Zooble - someone who’s nonbinary and therefore trans adjacent - who is unambiguously a good person and usually seen as positive trans rep. Jax can be seen as a contrast to Zooble, who navigates their gender identity in a healthier, more mature way.

I’ve only now just discovered that Caine is in the running for this year’s Tumblr Sexyman, and he’s currently matched against Tenna. It’s the battle of the red-suited wacky weird-headed showmen who are probably (definitely) bottoms! I think they’d be good pals. www.tumblr.com/sexy-people-...

Isn't she lovely 💖

AI: -Is damaging poor and marginalized communities with data centres -Is making your computers and games more expensive -Is causing mass layoffs -Is forcing slop into work pipelines when it makes the process worse -Is increasingly hated by the public Execs: “…you know, i stick my dick in it”

If you find yourself craving more quality animation after Digital Circus, consider checking out monkey wrench! It also is a story about a cast of funny little freaks going on adventures with other funny freaks all while coping with their internalized traumas but also there are more laser fights

I hate Ai being used at any point of a production but I cannot understand why people think it sounds better to say that you only used it at the early stages of pre-production. That's the fun bit!! The ideas bit!! The creative bit!! The bit that makes your story YOURS.

The idea of "we're about to see someone walk through the door but haven't yet so we're having the door visible over this person's shoulder" is going to be functionally impossible for an AI to do because it can't think ahead or understand itself lol All this money for nothing

The intentionality behind storyboarding is so metatextual there's really next to no chance it's actually going to succeed at doing this. AI can only emulate surface level aesthetic, it will have no idea why a shot is framed from below or whatever. It will just make shit up

Hey, fuck this!
