Happy #IndieAnimationDay and #BlackHistoryMonth Looking for a 2010s YA vampire drama with black witches and vampires? Check out The Three Tomes animatic pilot out now on YouTube. Tammy was an ordinary girl, now suddenly she's a witch, with 2 vampires after her heart. #ocsky youtu.be/5fXFD58D51A

Our second project as Studio FON emerged because our founder kept getting distracted from animating our pilot.
Please follow @taftalks.bsky.social to validate his lore theories or we'll literally never hear the end of it.
I'm making a thing! A new YouTube channel where I just talk about very niche bits of lore bouncing around in my head. Follow here for the latest updates!

NEW AYA RENDER
Happy #indieanimationday in #blackhistorymonth 2026! This past year, we reworked Aya's model, textures, and rig along with our compositing method to make her look straight out of an anime cel! What do you think? Does she look cool? 💪🏾😁

love that hundreds of billions has been invested/wasted on AI development and yet we still cannot just sign/edit a fucking PDF without needing to perform a blood ritual

I honestly think that the thing I love most about "Smiling Friends" is how often it demonstrates that a change in animation techniques for a character or a scene or whatever can in and of itself be the best gag you can conceive - and proving you don't necessarily have to be in the know to 'get it'.
Production art I did in late-2024 of SQUIM on the Smiling Friends episode "Squim Returns"! I just adore this character and I had so much fun drawing him! Once again, huge thanks to Zach Hadel, Michael Cusack, and Aron Fromm for having me design this critter! 🤪
He holds a special place in my heart!

"Antipasto" is a short film about an ambitious young chef at a culinary camp and a grumpy young grim reaper hiding just beyond the woods. Together Bridget and Capper will manage food, death, mushrooms...and possibly the end of the world.

Playing Nier Automata is a must if you haven't already. If you want good story with crazy amounts of depth in a game this is top tier.
NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition is $15.99 on US eShop buff.ly/U8xymYh

If you ever wondered why there aren’t many cartoons anymore this is it.
the AT&T-->Time Warner-->Discovery series of media mergers were some of the most pointless and disastrous business exercises ever conceived by man

so of course we're going to do it again

this time it's rumored they want $60 billion to sell this mess to Larry Ellison and whatever's left of CBS
Warner Bros. Discovery puts itself up for sale
The announcement comes after WBD previously said it would split in two.
