bullying works and we must do it

I Am Frankelda is a boldly handmade film. It's all texture and jitter -- even the camera gets jostled. The film celebrates the natural flaws of stop motion. They aren't simply problems that need to be fixed, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/how-perfec...

It is the month of my birth, pride month, huzzah✨

Had the absolute pleasure of talking animation, love, and my freaky social media habits over on The Animator’s Friend🎬✨ youtu.be/MFz0tQ0DqAs?...

if i've said it to one student, i've said it to a thousand: studios won't love you back and neither will an audience. yes, you should work to achieve a high skill level to work and appear professional, but if you haven't found your list of things that quicken your heart, it's gonna be all drudgery

Only semi-related, but this has me convinced that a Broadway adaptation of Sinners would be absolutely SICK

A t e

This could be the love in my heart talking but…I think I might be enamored with my present, okay with my past, and blinded by the joy of generating hope in my future.

So far doing pretty good with these hopes-o-mine

In light of this, there's a really great animation about a gay man reuniting his estranged family. And, better yet, it's a true story. I hope you check it out. :D youtu.be/SpD4zeg2o90?...

It’s worth mentioning that this was made by six guys in their dorm room for a sci-fi convention, and all six of them (which includes the creator of Evangelion) would go on to define the anime industry for decades to come.

Our first festival confirmation of 2026! Beyond excited to have my first anthology film under the STORY DRIVE umbrella Voices Unveiled be in community with all the wonderful queer stories being presented by @wickedqueer.boston this year 🏳️‍🌈🎨🏳️‍⚧️ ((Beyond proud of this team of scrappy animators))

call me a bleeding heart but i do not think the state should have the power to invalidate trans people’s identities and effectively imprison them. if you can’t legally drive in KANSAS how the hell are you meant to get anywhere

Had to do a new mini cut of some animation work for something recently 🎬✨

My tripod broke in the first 45 seconds of trying to record at an event I was paid to film for and I could hear the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme emanating from my bones almost immediately.

The inconsistency of the energy that I have to do work will never not drive me crazy. Like what do you mean I needed to do nothing but lay down essentially for a week and then today I’ve managed to do like 70% of what I’ve been meaning to do.

Trailer for my film NO MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE that I’m finally getting to screen next month! Got my fingers crossed that it does get to show in BRIDGE Video after whatever brief run it has with fests.

There are DEFINITELY enough artists and animators out there to sustain a happy and healthy business providing specialty products and software to people within that community. What there isn’t, is a large enough consumer base to make the line go up forever for shareholders

Breaking up with Adobe

holy shit!! BLENDER IS THE INDUSTRY STANDARD NOW BOY, MAYA WHO

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Society needs to bring back that Pee-wee's Playhouse aesthetic. People don't go out anymore? Give them a reason to visit places. Make them look cool.

[AI bubble bursts] billionaire tech bro: the stupid consumer did not understand it

oh i had this realization once

Help me raise 3K for a Chronic Illness Documentary🎥✨ gofund.me/c4e238ef6 —— Excited to make a film that provides some space for invisible illnesses to be better understood by a wider audience. Any donations, shares, support is appreciated!

My hopes for 2026: *Calm down *Stop working weekends when possible *Have enough money to get married

How the new year started for me was peacefully watching these shenanigans

Here’s to 2026

12:32 am on Christmas… trans rights

Way too many blue wave liberals on here sharing AI images making fun of Trump or whatever. Please stop.

guy who just learned it's not polite to call an artist's work "content": hey man it's cool to meet you i'm a huge fan of your slop

the people of this great republic yearn for locomotive transport

Just a reminder --

I just keep muttering “i need to calm down” every 45mins as I work. I’d say I’m pretty well adjusted.

It’s gonna happen!

I think the winter is starting to g to settle into my bones and brain now because my antisocial tendencies are only increasing

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely. They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things. Only you have the power to kill it.
