Ignore the critics.
Mando & Groglet movie is great fun!
Star Wars finally feels like Star Wars again.
Best SW movie since ROTJ.

I guess it was inevitable.
Ironically, it's assumptions like THIS that are destroying society. When artists put so much time and effort into their work, only to be brushed away with such comments that clearly have no logical thought, is what really disheartens them to continue.

Anything that seems impossible in my videos was achieved with VFX, passion, caffeine, and the support of my community.
If you really want to help push the slop out of the algorithm, subscribe to REAL animation and vfx channels, `like' and share a few of their videos....

Fifteen years ago today.
March 11th 2011, The devastating Tõhoku earthquake and tsunami took over 15,900 lives with a further 2,525 unaccounted, and affecting so many more.
We will never forget.

If ChatGPT makes you an artist, then Uber makes me a racecar driver.
They should release the new #StreetFighter movie on a Tuesday.

Fantastic book. No fluff text. No logos. No credits. Just his gorgeous poster artwork (plus alternative versions)

So, the competition is judged by humans and not AI. 🤔
I'd absolutely love to hear their reasons for why they think humans are better suited for this than AI, without conflicting with their defence for using AI to create art in the first place.

Photographer Miles Astray was disqualified from an AI-generated image competition after winning a jury award with a real photograph. His entry, mistaken for AI art, was submitted to challenge perceptions and highlight the value of human creativity.
Nothing repels me from clicking on a YouTube video more than an AI generated thumbnail.

Today marks my 14th year on YouTube!

For a movie based on a video game that had only a mechanic and ZERO story, this actually looks really good, and I'm very excited about it!

NOT a new video, but I've made the full Ghibli Clock video available for all to see (previously unlisted).
I'm not in it so you can easily share with your Ghibli fan friends without needing to explain me to them.
Enjoy. ⛩️
