- seasons 1, 2 & 3! The story is complete and is yours to have & to hold for all eternity! Cheers!
What really bothers me about all this hbo/netflix treatment of animation is the narrative that these shows weren't profitable and thus, cutting them makes sense. (small thread)
Prompt: “Animated scene features a close-up of a short fluffy monster kneeling beside a melting red candle. the art style is 3d and realistic, with a focus on lighting and texture. the mood of the painting is one of wonder and curiosity, as the monster gazes at the flame with
It's no mystery that the animation industry is on the verge of collapse. Join animators TOMORROW at the Stand with Animation Rally! Help us show studios that we deserve better & give our negotiating committee the ammo it needs to secure the BEST deal possible.
Once again from the rooftops, PLEASE WATCH CAROL!!! It is rare for this industry to allow protagonists who are NOT the typical proactive, enthusiastic, and optimistic tropes. Carol is a shining example of how different kinds of people can drive stories and be just as compelling.
Thank you for watching

They literally delisted films and shows from streamers to keep talent from receiving meager residuals and are somehow surprised that a strike is happening.

series finale "The Hardest Thing" premieres. It has been a wonderful journey and we hope you enjoy it. This will be the last promo I ever do for the show.
The girls are 23 - imo they are still SO young and their lives are very much ahead of them. In a way this is not the end of their journey at all, it's just the start of another.

Anime is so mainstream now it's crazy to think only 10 years ago it was derided and mocked constantly by the American animation industry at large. Y'all really loved it up there on that high horse.
Not to keep laying it on thick but in my final days on the show I received a commemorative book from the crew and it's incredibly thoughtful and beautiful. Whenever I look back on the show I will always think of this loving crew

Just watched Hardest Thing with my wife on Disney channel and openly crying - this story was so personal to me and my experiences with friendship and growth - please watch the extended credits whenever they release!
Protect queer kids. Protect trans kids. Don't settle for half-hearted one foot in one foot out support from incredibly powerful men who claim to be doing "all they can"

"who's that?" you ask, refilling your canteen
"My granddaughter" the frog answers, beaming, tears in his eyes

Artists should own the characters they create. Studios should have to license these IP and return them back to creators if they're not using them after a certain time. Wishful thinking I know. But it's how it should be.

's story as you've never seen it before!🎉
I was dumbfounded by just how much of an iPad presence there was at Trigger? Like, I think half the artists in this vid were just using vanilla procreate to work. Yoshinari zooming in and flipping the drawing with his fingers is rocking my world. What is their pipeline????
We are not business people. Our responsibility as creators/artists was to make great content, the responsibility of the studio/network is to monetize it. Yet we are the ones being punished for the complete failure of another department.
Hello, if you're hacking password protected websites ( which we rely on to find jobs) in order to leak spoilers of animated shows - you are not a fan. You're a pest and a thief.
When I visited Guadalajara for Pixelatl, a very talented artist handed me this watercolor of Hop Pop enjoying some cafe de olla...I never got their name!! I just got the piece framed and wanted them to know how much I love this! Where are you, mystery hero???

I wanted to share some of the pre-vis work that got done for "All In" by brilliant
#amphibia
story-artist Char. These images, alongside a 3 page word dump were what the writers were given as they began figuring out the episode.
One thing I wanted to do in Hardest Thing but chickened out on was during the goodbyes having Bessie lean closely to Anne's ear and whisper in perfect english "I love you Anne"
It's funny because we had a whole new beautiful design for time-skip Maddie but in the show you never really get to see it since she's mostly covered up by her potions stand. Design by

Most of these cut shows were never even given a CHANCE to make money. There is never a revenue source that can be directly tied to a new IP. No toys, no books, no games- no chance to even prove they could be profitable.
So damn tired of this take - it's based on outdated methods of data collection and a self fulfilling prophecy to boot. Here's a thought - stop thinking in terms of gendered demographics. Like the toy biz all it does is reinforce stereotypes and needlessly force kids into lanes.
On live-action content: "Girls often graduate out of animation. Some of our most incredible competitors have been at the live-action game for a long time. We know that’s what girls want." Expect single-cam and multi-cam comedies and dramas.

EXCLUSIVE: Sony Pictures Animation is in development on a new fantasy-adventure feature from Matt Braly, the creator of Disney’s multiple Emmy-nominated animated series, 'Amphibia' (click photo below for story)
Reading some of the reactions to All In and getting legit emotional - our team worked so hard for so long, from the voice talent to the board artists to the production staff...people's hearts and souls are in this thing

I'm so glad that viewers caught onto this but yes...Andrias's vision is failing after the time skip. He refused all future implants/repairs and will spend whatever time he has left healing the land.
studios now:
step 1. invest millions of dollars into a show w/ a passionate and talented team
step 2. refuse to market it at all, as if the show is supposed to reach people via magic or witchcraft
step 3. ????
step 4. profit
Unfortunately, without the robust marketing support we had at launch, our second drop on Disney+ in December 21 did not perform as well. Even though our third drop improved, by early June 2022, it was decided that the show would not continue onto a Season 3. It was pencils down.
🐸WELCOME TO AMPHIBIA! It's official. We are making a show about a teen girl stuck in a crazy frog world. Please bear with me as I gush and shill harder than I've ever shilled/gushed before.
I have one question in this one scene that I just noticed. HOW, did she tie her hair in a bun? IT'S TOO SHORT TO BE ABLE TO TIE IT LIKE THAT, a tiny ponytail is possible but...A BUN?
