After a bunch of experimentation I finally got DALL-E to work for video by combining it with a few other AI tools

Midjourney fashion "created" by https://t.co/O3bHGy7IwB . The result are pretty amazing🤯.

Is this a leaked concept of the live-action Emperor's New Groove movie or just an excellent fan rendering? Thandiwe Newton will make a fantastic Yzma. Thoughts?

Genevieve Tsai is a friend and one of my favorite character designers. Her drawings are so fluid and full of personality. This Jerry design is just adorable. Brings back good memories of watching Tom & Jerry as a kid.

A DSLR your “kids” will enjoy. This list price is 19500 ¥ Yen or $150 usd. The actual camera will set you back $3900. Sadly I’m not much of an Optimus Prime now fan as I was as a child (too much of goodie tooshoes). Luckily they have a Decepticon option.

They are finally making an Uncharted movie! I was hired by Naughty Dog over ten years ago to design his outfit (and other character design work). Hanno Hagedorn and Rich Diamant worked on the U1 and U2 model.

I think Tom Holland will appeal to the masses.

Another amazing Paul Kwon illustration. Can you believe Paul draws a lot of these concepts with his fingers😳. I watched him paint at work.
