Hi #PortfolioDay, I'm Alison, an artist and sometimes writer from London, UK, and I draw comics, book covers and editorial. Can't show you the sequentials I'm drawing right now but I'm open for covers (especially books), comic writing and to discuss the next thing.

...and my review out of Annecy for Anime News Network. I *loved* this one: www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/100-m...

100 Meters Anime Movie Review

Debuting at Annecy, 100 Meters is a gorgeous work from the creative team behind On Gaku: Our Sound and the creator of Orb.

100 METERS is one of the best animated films I've seen this year. Been waiting for this since On-Gaku: Our Sound blew me away – to my friends in the US, please go see it!

Also consider reading my interview with Kenji Iwaisawa for it back in June for Variety (1/2): variety.com/2025/film/gl...

‘On-Gaku: Our Sound’ Director Kenji Iwaisawa Returns to Annecy With Rotoscoped Sprint Drama ‘100 Meters’

Kenji Iwaisawa discusses evolving rotoscope techniques, balancing indie and commercial methods and crafting '100 Meters' with a larger, skilled team.

in TRON: ARES, Jared Leto is somehow less convincing at looking human than the deaged Jeff Bridges replica from Legacy. Vibes not enough to carry the rest of the film, which is confused at best!

My second book, Colours of Wes Anderson, is out today. I am sick in bed with a cold. My favourite part of writing a book is the Acknowledgements because I get to tell everyone about people I love

we’ve come a long way from the rarity of localised anime home releases and its important not to lose that ground to the streaming wars - love Rollin’s reflection on the importance of shelf ephemera

Counting just DVDs and up – not VHS or digital purchases – I have 493 movies and TV shows on physical home video.

I'm not saying you should be where I'm at. But I am arguing you should consider getting closer.

I’m on record as thinking Tron Legacy kinda kicks ass (there’s a link out in the review above) so this all particularly sucked for me. Cool score though, as anticipated

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”
