Update WE ARE SO BACK ALSO THEY CHANGED THE BIRD WHILE I WAS GONE??
Recently I took a test for a hand drawn animation job that i wanted sooo badly. If you dont know for the past two years ive been an animator at titmouse working on Baby shark (yeah i know). I really gave the test my all but was rejected. This is the 4th time I've tried to get a hand drawn job and I'll admit, I went into bed and cried a little. But y'know, I think the rejection made me stronger. Since then I've reflected on why I think animation is such a beautiful medium. The current Canadian animation industry is mostly outsourcing jobs from america on middling shows. But I know animation is way more than that, and I never want to stop making it. I love art so much and I want to make art that resonates with people...
Soo uhh yeah. Got banned from twitter. I'm pretty sure it's cuz I replied to a crypto bot butting in on a conversation with "Kill. Yourself." oh noooo I must've really hurt the bots feelings...
To be honest I'm a little upset. Not because OH NO I HAD 13K FOLLOWERS like honestly I'm fine with starting over. The people who actually care will come back. Plus it'll be nice to start over fresh. Like peeling the plastic off of a new thingy.
I'm more upset because:
- I had a lot of very helpful threads bookmarked so bye to them
- I've seen way more heinus disgusting shit on twitter and I get banned for...responding to a crypto bot okay...
For a bit I was like "well fuck twitter who needs it." But like "haha fuck twitter" meme aside, I like twitter! I follow my friends and I like the art they post lol. So I went to make a new account
And they immediately limited my account and shadow banned me. Well...okay.
I'll make a new account eventually but I guess I'll just chill for a bit. I'll be here. Saw oppenheimer on friday. It was good. I have a lot of problems with it (like the editing) but i was pretty invested and there are some key scenes that really fucking blew me away.
Uhhh what else...Gonna be at the Toronto newgrounsd meetup next weekend, pretty hype. My flight is overnight on friday (leaves at 11:15pm) so my plan is to sleep on the plane and then sleep at the toronto airport since i only have a hotel for saturday night. I see people do that..right? ur allowed?
Anyway, see ya folks.
