Question for Animation Twitter, how many of of you all are home owners? Is it very challenging to get qualified for a home?

I am currently looking and I only know a lucky few who stayed on a production for a few years who can qualify. It's not easy in Los Angeles.

Is the end goal efficiency? As someone who’s work in this industry for a while, anytime an efficiency is found, it doesn’t take pressure off. “You have so much more time now! How about you do the job you were already doing but also this other thing not in your job description?”

Did we forget about AI and data centers’ negative environmental impact and how they’re affecting Black and marginalized communities?

I never wanted to make it to this ""milestone.""
Almost about 2 full years now, trying to find Full-Time Studio work. I'm very grateful for the Storyboard Freelance these years, but it's been such a heartbreak over and and over after having consistent studio work for 10 yrs...

If you need to partner with AI to get a greenlight on your project, it ain't worth it. I know it's super frustrating out there rn but nothing makes replacing your peers with automated garbo justified. Nothing. We gotta hold the line on this one or we're f*cked.

Man, today feels like a gut punch for animation.

"JoJo's Bizarre Adventure"
and learned numerous manga techniques from him. This is one example.

Critique is being talked about a lot this week. I’m very pro critique. Most of my job is receiving critique and I’m a better artist bc of it. BUT it worries me that young artists are feeling like they need to listen to EVERYTHING random people online tell them

This was a really fun couple of shots to work on for Neon Odyssey, where Rett's black hole splits the laser and it cuts through the giant chunks of floating debris around the ship!

To be transparent. The film is not funded or in official production. In fact, MONK will be at Annecy this year looking for potential partners and investors. However, there is a lot of buzz around this project already fueled entirely by your public outcry earlier this year.
