One of those goofy maid animes, except the viewpoint character isn't the hapless master or mistress of the house, but a regular-ass janitor who ended up on this crew due to a paperwork mixup at the temp agency and can't figure out what the fuck is wrong with her co-workers.

animation perfectionists who think 60fps should be the standard rate for all animations seeing that the new cuphead shows animation wasn’t entirely done by hand and individually inked on cells so that the digital artist’s fingers wouldn’t break altogether in the middle of animating it
there r seriously people calling this show’s animation ^ “lazy” because it doesn’t follow the exact same grueling animating conditions as the original game had, which would be impossible to replicate in today’s industry because cuphead used to be a single indie game animated over the course of half a decade instead of a show on netflix where digital is the standard and things are expected to get done quicker. if you see someone complaining that it “looks bad because it wasn’t done traditionally” that’s a red flag that they have literally no idea how the animation industry works because that’s an IMPOSSIBLE standard to uphold for an entire franchise
Studio Ghibli’s animation software will be made available via open source this month.
That’s right…💯% free.

This is a BIG DEAL, folks.
Animation software is, by and large, very expensive and out of the range of most people seeking to get into animation. As of March 26th, this software will become open source and available to all prospective animators!
Spread the word!
uhhhhh

WHAT
actually it isnt anime, it’s danganronpa

Actually certain portions are animated, so it can be considered an anime
why are you talking about this like it’s a species of crab
Okay so I’ve seen PLENTY variants of that shipping meme going around, but I haven’t seen nearly enough pairs for poly relationships! So have some of my fave OT+ tropes!
Dude I love these sm
now that everyone is finally catching on that wayyyy too many people in the animation industry don’t make that much……
why do you think voice actors are always at cons charging a week’s worth of groceries for a autograph?
why do you think artists still have commissions open when they are working fulltime on a show or movie?
why do you think so many animation youtubers just stay working on youtube?
why do you think artists sign up for artist alley at cons when they can?
why do you think artists are twitch partners/affiliates?
why do you think these people have ko-fi donation links?
why do you think these people have patreons?
why do you think people in the animation industry at always at cons as special guests?
Came up with an idea last night that all Papyrus fans should come together and draw picture(s) of Papyrus saying fuck or swearing and post it on the same day so the people who constantly leave comments about how “Sans is gonna be so mad when he finds out someone corrupted his brother” 🙄 will be killed by the sheer force of it all instantly.
So anyways I declare that June 16th is Let Papyrus Say Fuck Day, all you gotta do is draw Papyrus swearing, or if you want, doing other things that the fandom at large would lose their minds over. Like Papyrus gambling or committing arson. It doesn’t have to be high art, it can be a shitposty little doodle. Post it on the 16th and tag it with #LetPapyrusSayFuck as well as Undertale and Papyurs so everyone else can find them. Reblog this post or send it to your Papyrus loving friends, the more participants the better.
Edit:
Please also add the tag ‘swearing’ so those upset by profanity can filter it, as it is one of the most standard tags for doing so. :>
YOOO YESSSS
did you know The Animation Guild is holding a rally tomorrow (8/10) in Burbank, CA and ANYONE is welcome to attend?? Come out and show support for our union ahead of contract negotiations!
Do you watch or enjoy animation? Wish shows would stop getting cancelled and shelved? Want to avoid having to look at AI slop? Think workers should earn a fair wage and have protections? Stand with us in solidarity!
We need YOUR support! Join #AnimationGuild members on 8/10 at 5 PM at IATSE Local 80 to show our strength before negotiations. Together, we can make a difference! 💪 Spread the word - everyone is welcome!
when I'm not doing comics I'm doing this, see ya'll tomorrow
SUPPORT SUPPORT SUPPORT.
ANIMATION NEEDS YOU. Workers have been put through the ringer,saved these studios and then had the rug pulled out from under us when they wanted to cut jobs and cancel projects!
Animation workers are literally FIGHTING FOR THEIR JOBS right now. This isint about just wages, this is about showing the studios that the love of animation is stronger then their BS. The reason why the industry is in trouble right now is because there is TOO MUCH POWER in the hands of the people who only care about shareholders!
The output of animation in the last decade has been wild. Some high-tier stuff, break through shows and features, its been breaking records..and none of that has gone into making the career more sustainable to the artists who make up these projects, that carry them on passion alone.
SHOW THEM SUPPORT, BE FIREY, BE LOUD, SHOUT OUT YOUR LOVE FOR ANIMATION !
uhhhhh

Bioware: So Dragon Age: Inquisition was a hit and we need to get working on a sequel ASAP so the hype stays fresh.
EA: We want you to work on Anthem.
BW: Nobody likes Anthem.
EA: So work on it and make people like it. Work on this other thing on the side.
BW: [Years later, ready to gear up] We have all these great ideas, look at these concepts, the fans will love it!
EA: ...But what if you made it an MMO instead?
BW: Fans don't want an MMO.
EA: But we can make extra money off microtransactions
BW: The fans don't want an MMO.
EA: You're making an MMO or this studio is being closed.
BW: [has to scrap half of what they are doing to make an MMO]
Testers: Where is our fucking single player RPG?
EA: Wouldn't you rather have an MMO?
BW/Testers: NO
EA: Bioware, make it a single player rpg. You whiners. But you have a deadline and we're not giving you anymore money so you have to make it out of this 80% finished Dragon Age MMO we definitely weren't forcing you to make.
BW: [Have no choice but to make lemonade] Wow, that's 1.5 million active players in the first two months! That's great, especially since it's so long after the last game!
EA: Yeah...but we wanted THREE MILLION.
BW: None of your games in the last ten years have had that many.
EA: AND you didn't win GOTY. We're firing the rest of your staff.
BW: Are you fucking kidding
EA: Dragon Age: The Veilguard was a total failure because it wasn't an MMO.
So look. I agree there should be more queer folks involved in the creation of media, particularly mainstream media. (Other groups too but I’m speaking on queer folks right now.) Queer people are underrepresented and shoved to the side and poorly portrayed and that sucks, and there should be more of us involved, particularly when it comes to telling our stories.
HOWEVER
Nothing good comes of the idea that ONLY queer folks should tell queer stories or portray queer characters, or that it’s okay to critique and harass straight folks purely for telling queer stories.
Why?
1. Segregation is not going to work in our favor. We know how “well make your own, then” plays out when the other group has the resources and institutional power. Especially if there’s no one even making them pay lip service to “separate but equal.” It’s not going to be any better if the segregation is self-imposed.
2. Saying straight folks can’t make queer media gives them a convenient excuse to simply not include any queer characters at all in the majority of stories, and I thought we hated that? I thought that was explicitly a bad thing? We WANT straight creators to be doing their best to write us well so we’ll be represented in a full range of mainstream media. Saying they can’t do it right and shouldn’t try lets them off the hook.
3. It puts closeted queer creators in a bind. Either they stay closeted and be harassed by angry queer folks, they come out and expose themselves to harassment from bigots, or they simply never tell queer stories, their own stories. The world gets worse for some subset of queer folks and fewer authentic queer stories get told. Net loss.
4. It makes the small pool of out queer creators the arbiters of queer narratives, which sucks for people who don’t see themselves well represented. There is no single definitive queer narrative and the smaller the pool of Approved Creators the more we risk instating a false one.
5. It opens the door to further divisions within the community. If a straight person can’t possibly understand a trans person well enough to write about or act them, can a cis gay person? So should a cis gay man ONLY write characters who are cis gay men? Ridiculous. No, all queer people are not alike and do not have the same experiences. So either we need to overcome that to learn about and empathize with other people and stand in solidarity, or we’re all going to splinter off into our own little bubbles which, again, is explicitly bad for both our real-life community and our fiction.
We want people to write about others who aren’t like them. We want people to write about others who aren’t like them. We also want people like us to have the opportunity to tell our stories but making it an exclusive privilege can only backfire.
