Digital worlds. Real culture. CGI for fashion, culture, and virtual spaces.

At an animation meetup yesterday, one thing kept coming up: people shifting from film/commercial work into games.
FX artists going into gameplay/realtime VFX.
Animators moving to in-game cycles.
Freelancers pivoting to cinematics.
Curious, anyone else noticing this trend?

@SLIPOMATIC @IsThisA3DModel Huh? 3d prototyping has been around for years that’s how a lot of products are made. So 3D modeling for production is not Vapor at all.
English
@IsThisA3DModel Can you hold the 3D model in your hand? No. It’s vapor behind a screen. That’s the difference. To ignore that is to deny reality.
English
you all keep writing novels trying to rationalize these false equivalencies to avoid the very simple and inconvenient fact that 3D artists create 3D models and AI users don't create anything.

3D digital art has no foundation to criticize Ai art. You don’t have to know anything about the nature of clay to be able to sculpt or “extrude a cylinder” and the tool gives you an ability that you didn’t earn but the artist user is thankful for. You don’t have to know anything about grinding pigments or mixing using color theory to “eye dropper” a color in Photoshop. Digital artists have no ground to criticize Ai and are perhaps the most arrogant artists to ever exist… which is an impressive feat. When I do stop motion I don’t push an “inverse kinematic” button, I move the form to emulate physics one frame at a time. I hand sculpt the face to change expression but these Ai critics digitally print 6,000 different faces then slap a mask on the puppet instead of sculpting. It’s okay, we’ve always taken short cuts, just like Ai. Even with stop motion you don’t have to draw the character because the puppet exists so you don’t have to worry about it going “off model” or “losing volume”. When I 2D animate it’s the highest difficulty to maintain volume, though digital allows me to undo frames and edit on the fly which I couldn’t do with a 35mm camera (I shot with the camera Kubrick used on 2001 a Space Odyssey I owned in the 90s). Art is a history of short cuts, innovation even having other artists so most of the work for your art. To go after Ai kids is beyond arbitrary, white knight virtue signaling and beneath the real spirit of the arts. PS the audience doesn’t care and will devour analogue, digital and Ai if it entertains and communicates truth goodness and beauty.

@eyedesyn AI retopo = Yes, hallelujah!
AI look-dev = Don't you dare

A Zbrush tweet that has since been deleted...a firestorm of backlash due to the lack of information around this AI feature is...a new tweet with no new info.
This could be helpful for artists because of course AI features can be useful...but with Digital Twin...how would you know? The internet defaults to pitchforks.

@VoteLewko @QuentinDempster It was designed by Australians for Australia 🤣 … but facts annoy these people.
English
@QuentinDempster It's funny how you think a Ford Ranger is an "obese American utility".
It's also one of the most popular vehicles in the country. So of course you'd want to ban it.
English
Yes these obese American utility trucks are non-compliant with most parking spaces and, by statistical analysis, are a lethal risk to pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. They need to be banned from Australia’s urban roads with asset write-off tax concessions removed. 👇
Dr Monique Ryan MP@Mon4Kooyong
Large SUVs and utes are 82% more likely to kill children in collisions- 44% more likely to kill adult pedestrians or cyclists. They damage our roads and add to air pollution, harming our health. There’s twice as many utes as tradies in Australia. We need remove the luxury car tax exemption which incentivises people to buy megautes instead of safer, cleaner smaller cars and SUVs. theage.com.au/national/victo…

@Katherine_deves @QuentinDempster I’ve never had a tradie come in a US ute
English
@Mon4Kooyong Let’s sort out excessive government spending and perks for you lot first before you come for more of our money.
English
The richest 10% of Australian households get more money from the capital gains tax discount than the government spends on Jobseeker, the childcare subsidy, government schools or higher education - nearly $4.5bn more than it would cost to include dental in Medicare.
We need fair, sensible, evidence-based tax reform.

My controversial art opinion is that these plane models are close to useless for learning to sculpt the human head.
Instead of learning these semi-random planes, you should drill the human skull, learn to sculpt it from memory.

The wedding TAKING PLACE at The Lodge absolutely used taxpayer-funded resources
Whether they admit it or not, this includes:
✔ Venue (The Lodge)
A taxpayer-owned luxury property with manicured grounds and 24/7 staffing.
If a normal person hired a venue like that? $20–$50k minimum.
✔ Security
AFP presence, secure perimeter, sweeps, staff coordination — all taxpayer-funded.
✔ Staff
Chefs, servers, cleaning staff, grounds staff… these people are already on the government payroll.
They don’t suddenly clock off for a wedding.
✔ Utilities
Electricity, cleaning, water, heating/cooling — all taxpayer-paid.
✔ Opportunity costs
The Lodge was shut down for a private function, effectively turning a public asset into a private wedding venue for a day
English
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese married his partner Jodie Haydon in a small ceremony at the Lodge, becoming the first Australian leader to wed while in office reut.rs/3MaBnkT

@gateian @henningsanden Max auto back up rarely fails me…. Them fighting words in Blender posts 🤣
English
@henningsanden Years of 3ds max use have conditioned me to manually save with ctrl + s after every few minutes, so I've never even looked into auto save.
English
Blender is set to auto save every 2 minutes. It just crashed and the latest auto save was 20 minutes ago.
Am I misunderstanding how auto save works?
English
@motionpunk1 @EHuanglu Yes, big corporations are going to deal with some random AI bro on Twitter with their ad budget. Please learn how creative works in the real world. 🤣
English
@EHuanglu Hey I also made a 100k ad but the difference is i was paid for it LOL
English
no more ad agencies.. in AI world
you can now create 100k worth ads for a few bucks, use any actor &product and keep them consistent.. I spent a week to create this workflow, now you can copy and make it your own
like & repost -> dm for free
here's how it works:

@LinusEkenstam I am renovating my house… has nothing to do with ai or hate. Good luck with the new studio!
English
AI haters telling me I can’t do shit, I’m not creative, I’m a joke.
Meanwhile I’m building a studio with my own hands, designing it, building it, and using it.
Every single nail, screw, gram of putty.
People on the internet just loves hate.
let them come.
“I love it”
English
C4D is the new 3ds Max, and Blender is the new C4D

Nothing is more 2025 in motion design than these two tweets showing up back-to-back in the timeline.

I’m sorry, does this look complicated to AI bros?

VRTL WRLD retweetet
Hey all, my #RampageRally personal project is out! You may have seen my deadline submission a few weeks ago, I took it further to make a nice post about it in my spare time :)
A 22 page breakdown awaits you : artstation.com/artwork/wrom46
English
@VRTLWRLD hahaha! Impossible fantasy magic technology!
English
This is supposed to be the same truck.
The truck is the main character, the focus of the entire production and it's janky, uncontrollable garbage. How is this acceptable?
We suspect that all the AI generative software companies gave free access to this studio to "make" this commercial.
Word is that it still took 100 people and over 10 thousand prompt/renders to cherry pick the "best of the best" that we're seeing here. And it's still trash.
English
@Stretchedwiener Exactly. Imagine a technology where you can model an asset with physically-based materials and place it in any environment around the world, and those assets can be used in other creative.... hmmmmm
English
But hey, sure - this one is in Zootopia. That's why it doesn't have front wheels! "Different Country!!!"
English
@toni_symonds Albo is missing from most inquiries and sittings so let’s start at the top… and talk about swanning around his travel expenses exceed many predecessors.
English
Pauline Hanson is paid to be an MP but she has been absent for the last two sitting weeks of parliament, swanning around Florida, attending a debauched Gatsby party and spreading the word that Australia is a failed state and should emulate Trump’s USA. She is no “patriot”.
English
@unit_accord @ABAOProductions This is the real issue on my mind. If a company with endless resources is not even willing to do high end production… then what’s the fucking point.
English
@ABAOProductions The Coca Cola ad doesn't even cost less, they produced 7000 video clips selected by 100 people. They could've paid CGI artists to make a single coherent ad instead.
English
AI creators don’t understand that the Coke ad is garbage in the same way that McDonald’s consumers don’t understand the food is garbage. And you can try to explain it, but their response is always like “oh so you don’t like paying less for things?” Or “oh it bothers you that anyone can afford a Michelin Star meal now.”
English
@ABAOProductions You know how you could tell what rendering engine an animation used back in the day? Well, this ad just SCREAMS GenAI - and it's not markedly better or worse than the 100's of other GenAI vids I have to scroll through every day. Polar Bears? Iconic. This? Generic...Forgettable.
