It's so funny! I loved the wheezy dialogue bit and all the little pop up animations. The music too! Awesome work

Stop everything you're doomscrolling about and watch this right NOW

Very fun indie animation from Wisdom and team. For me as an old trigun anime enjoyer, I ate this up 🥹 can't wait to see more

I can't thank enough all the animators on this project for bringing my little dog to life. A lot of indie animators whose work I follow and love a whole lot too! I knew what was coming, but the final product is still leaving me speechless. Thank you to all who worked on this! YOURE THE BEST

I'm looking for stories about how AI is killing creative work, and I'd love to hear from you—artists, writers, illustrators, actors, designers, editors, voice actors and narrators—if your job or practice has been hit. This is going to be a big one.

Just FYI, I did my first traditional painting for Magic 7 years ago. I’ve been experimenting with various mediums and techniques ever since.

7 YEARS for me to finally find an approach that I think I’m satisfied with.

So…be patient with yourself and fall in love with the creation process itself.

I really like both of my last two paintings.

Believe it or not, this is quite a novelty! I think I’ve finally figured out how I want to paint!

I'M STARTING A 100% FREE ANIMATION COURSE :D This free animation course consists of three distinct phases. Each phase takes 12 weeks individually. With a sliding scale of engagement. The basic course will teach you what you need but there will always be more materials to engage with!

The indie animator cycle is like this: don't animate anything for a while, start to think i should do something else with my life (like find financial stability), animate again, get incredible euphoria

I will literally never stop because the last step goes too hard

I shout out your podcast every semester to my students (art school) and this semester for the first time i got a "yeah! Better offline!" from one of them. That combined with the way students light up when condemning gen ai gives me some joy

thought this was really beautiful

You’ve talked about passing the baton in the loop of life. How do you want Hideo Kojima to be remembered when you pass it on?

I am not going to pass the baton to anyone. I will rather crush the baton… [Laughs.] I don’t need to give “Hideo Kojima” to anyone. If I pass the baton to my staff and tell them to make things the same way I do, the company will not succeed and will go out of business.

What do you mean by that?

Every day, if I tweet something that I like, a director or an actor or a musician contacts me. They say, “I’m a creator because of your games.” But they didn’t receive the baton of Hideo Kojima. They received my small fire. They’re not copying me. They’re not trying to be me. They have this fire, and they light up their own. And they’ll probably give that to someone else. There were legendary comic book artists when I was a boy. I didn’t become a comic book artist – I was inspired by them, I was influenced.
