Don't mean to self-promote or anything, but I'd love to get any feedback on an animation I just finished a couple of days ago! It's only 7 seconds long, but hope people enjoy it nonetheless!

The new Tom and Jerry logo. Classically inspired but is it an inspirational classic?

I'm soliciting thoughts on a chatroom. There already is an room on and I think that would work.

The room can be found here: matrix.to/#/!GDqryvHvlKiULHCmP

It has an animation focus and I think it could serve as a companion to Socel.

Please vote and/or reply with your thoughts.

Rebooting She-Ra

"...how do we frame Stevenson’s She-Ra in relation to the Filmation series? As a remake? Reboot? Adaptation?"

Promare review (spoilers)

Well, that was interesting. If you've already seen Studio Trigger's other works (and even Gurren Lagann) there will be few surprises stylistically, or otherwise.

My gut reaction is that for a debut feature, Trigger is struggling with creating a concise story that fits into the allotted time. Promare feels like a highly condensed series that is heavy on the action and light on the story and characters.

This is driven home by the story pacing which is episodic.

1/3
