Greg Bartlett

Hey #PortfolioDay 👋 I’m Greg, a background supervisor, background artist, layout artist and board games illustrator who's previously worked on shows such as Smiling Friends and Hazbin Hotel! I’m next available for any job or freelance opportunities very late this year.

"Who else do you know in your life that either lost their job or their job was finished and the whole freaking world knew about it?" -NY Toys"R"Us manager, Johnny Tammaro Thanks to @zeedox for leading the team, you always kept us on track!

This is so disappointing, but I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work on Smiling Friends! It was my first industry job & I joined season 2 right before I graduated from college. I learned so much & I feel so lucky to have worked with such an amazing team 💛💛💛

@Adobe, I think now you've seen how passionate artists are about this, despite the software having stagnated for decades. Animators haven't needed much. Imagine if you gave them just a little more...

So that’s just a reminder that your outrage isn’t futile, it actually affects their bottom line. So tell all your friends. Make some memes. Stay fuckin pissed. (3)

Last year, Adobe signed up to bluesky, & the backlash to their presense drove them off the platform. Their share prices have continued to decline for the last year. Microsoft is catching a lot of heat right now for similar anticonsumer practices, and MSFT stock is down also. (2)

So Adobe are killing Flash for good. I guess it’s on us then, to stay noisy about this, if we ever hope to open our project files for the foreseeable future. (1)

I just uploaded a selection of my works from Smiling Friends Season 3 to my YouTube! 🎶🎵😮🫶🎤🎧🎼🎹🎻🎷🪘🎺🥁🪗🪕🎸🪈

Hope you enjoyed last weeks new Smiling Friends episode! Shmaloogleville was the most fun I had on a key location design this season!

Tune into #AdultSwim on Sunday, November 23rd at 11:30 PM to catch the next brand new episode of Smiling Friends Season 3, "Shmaloogles"!

CB Exclusive: ‘SMILING FRIENDS’ staff writer Hans Van Harken says his most difficult part when making an episode is keeping track of the character names. “Hypothetical Example: squiblybibbly shakes gwombo violently fast in two key frames. shmorzu watches in stunned shock, mouth agape (realistically). squiblybibbly releases gwombo. gwombo pukes (rotoscoped) like the parking lot vomit guy gif.”

Had the honour of helping cute-ify the hotel design for this one 💖 👉o w o👈 💖

Happy Hazbin S2 episode 3&4 release! 3 was an exciting episode to work on as I jumped in to the role of background layout lead for the rest of the season!

This episode turned out SO GOOD!! HUGE props to @TijmenRaasveld for the incredible boards and @ZAMSTUDIOSHQ for the INSANE comp & specialty work. I can’t believe how good this turned out
