My work for "Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft" episode 07 #storyboard #animation #laracroft #TombRaider vimeo.com/1020736296

with $15million i'd be able to afford a house and maybe go to the doctor once or twice

gnome show pilot is out! hope you like it💚

if yall can sit through the liveaction remake you can support the animated movie when it comes out.

@cpimentelart It's a great opening. I don't understand the hate 😭

People just be hating everything nowadays

@cryptopunk7213 And, for the record, that ai clip looks like absolute dog shit.

@cryptopunk7213 why watch runners in the olympics when cars do the same thing faster? why care that astronauts were sent into space when we send satilites all the time? why watch people play chess when robots can play it better? the end product isnt the only thing people care about.

genuine question: why are the arts and gaming communities so fucking touchy about ai? i get that 99% of examples are slop but we’re reaching a point where ai-generated media is indistinguishable for 90% of the world that shouldn’t go un-acknowledged just because you want to hide behind a professional identity ai isn’t going away, it’s getting (a lot) better, so why not try and figure out how to work with it to your advantage? isn’t that what a bunch of hollywood is realising now? doomer: “NO THIS IS NOWHERE CLOSE TO PIXAR GRADE” 8 year old (target audience): “haha that’s awesome” what am i missing?

“The average new hire was 42 years old in 2025.”

Tomorrow is my last day working w/ the immsensely talented folks at Powerhouse. It's been a blast & we cooked up some rad work (if I do say so myself) I'm gonna take off the rest of April. After that if you're looking for someone w/ action storyboard experience: keep me in mind!

why do we care if humans are going into space? just send a robot up there to do it. like or not it thats the future!1!

@TheMG3D why would i pay to watch something someone didn't make

Explain your reason

Would you pay to see an AI generated movie in theaters?

@banannerbread BIG same

I LOVE STORYBOARDING I LOVE ANIMATION

@aalong64 all my homies love Sublo and Tangy Mustard

this morning I've been going through Sublo and Tangy Mustard stills for an upcoming panel. I'm so busy working that I don't reflect on it often, but man it's a pretty cool-looking show! it's not perfect but I'm proud of it and I love making it.

dont believe for a second that Disney wont try shit w genAI again in a few months/years. they 100% will but they'll be more quiet about it.

@38___sr @Radrappy I think I read somewhere that it was costing them ~$15million a day to operate.

@Radrappy how….how much money was wasted on this venture...didn’t this deal just happen in decemeber…

“What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing. We’ll share more soon, including timelines for the app and API and details on preserving your work.” Here's where you're wrong, Sam - none of it mattered. It was slop and it will be forgotten immediately

we dont get many wins these days so you'll have to excuse me for being a smug, spiteful prick about this lol

@yes_suree @Radrappy Suree!!! This is so fucking sick 🤯

If you want to see cool, original ideas in animation and haven't checked out @Radrappy's #ClaraandtheBelow, now you can ⚔️ Let's get all 4 Episodes funded!!

drooling idiot with no inner world: "more details = more prettier and better"

ive said it before and ill say it again: tech bros do not understand the difference between fidelity and art direction

@NekoMichiUBC im gonna get a lot of mileage out of that idiom

In Chinese we have an idiom 画蛇添足 (adding legs to a painting of a snake) which refers to when someone adds unnecessary embellishments to a piece of work that deviate from the original intent, thus ruining it in the process.

the new, more evil cousin of motion smoothing.
