Lucasfilm has finally given permission to artists to start posting their Season 1 concept artwork for Young Jedi Adventures! Early on, I did some character design for the show, and designing the kitten version of the Loth/Tooka cat was one of my all time favorite assignments!
I don't think people realize how incredible it is that a movie rendered in nearly real-time in free software on a single computer just won the Oscar for best animated film. If there was ever any proof you don't need AI, this is it.
Flow was made entirely with Blender and rendered in real time with EEVEE. We didn't use a renderfarm. The final render was done on my PC. There was no compositing, all the colors were tweaked and adjusted using shaders.
I don’t really use this site much anymore but I thought I’d let everyone know I just did a massive portfolio update! Check it out if you’re looking to hire someone to make some pictures next year!

Have some concept art from 101 Dalmatians by Walt Peregoy. The look of the film is still one of my favorites in animation and I really adore how Peregoy and Ken Anderson designed a lovely looking film.
As a former #DreamWorks employee, this is wildly tone deaf. NBCUniversal forced DWA to cut its staff by the hundreds & outsource to studios in other countries. Maybe the execs are happy, but def not the workers.
And the free food was way better when DWA wasn't owned by NBCU.
Dreamworks is back in action morale-wise, between #KungFuPanda4 and #TheWildRobot. Even when times got lean, one perk has never gone away: complimentary breakfasts and lunches daily. It's on THR's list of 25 best places to work in L.A. thr.cm/p7ulzLZ
The phasing out of DVDs / rise of streaming culture is robbing us of all of the behind the scenes and bloopers footage. These things inspired A LOT of us to go into the arts and pursue working in the entertainment industry in any capacity.
"Mundane Halloween" returns!
It's that time of year again, when Japanese website @dailyportalz holds its annual contest to dress up as something super ordinary.
Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2024 contest!

hi all, I’m available for work! looking for visdev positions in animation, but open to commercial and editorial work. i’m an emmy winning artist with experience at Netflix, Sony, Nickelodeon, Titmouse, and Cartoon Network.
Reminder that @animationguild is NOT on strike. The march on Netflix was a show of solidarity - TAG members stand together in commitment to a fair contract. However, a strike is not off the table.
