The voice of Sara in OTGW, @emilybrundige.bsky.social (and also the creator of Goldie on Apple TV+) is doing a kickstarter to fund an animatic for her new cartoon concept, Strawberry Vampire! Check it out here!

Ashley Eriksson Disco Project, by Ashley Eriksson 12 track album

Oh she also pretty recently released an album of disco songs which is also amazing and something you should probably listen to, in my opinion!

Bears Make Art, by Ashley Eriksson 11 track album

My friend Ashley (from the band LAKE, and who wrote the end credit song from Adventure Time) has a new SURPRISE SOLO ALBUM and it's so wonderful. I wish I could do animated music videos for all these songs...

thanks! i had a tape of samuel ramey in mefistofele in high school and would listen to it on repeat. my grandfather was an opera singer, so my mom and i bonded over opera a bit over the years. deborah voigt was my moms suggestion -- we'd seen her perform at the met a few times

could i get any recommendations for alternatives to ipad for animation/storyboard/painting purposes? i'd like something with a good pressure-sensitivity, accurate color, can be used on its own but can also double as a external monitor (cintiq style). also want to be able to remove all web browsers.

YouTube Share your videos with friends, family, and the world

all these sweet people. a video interview of folks who worked on Over the Garden Wall talk about their experiences on the show. ❀️ everyone on this call was a joy to work with and helped keep me sane while show-running. www.youtube.com/live/_XmXynt...

I haven't really used bluesky much yet. Here are early brainstorming sketches & notes i drew & wrote when trying to think of ideas for that new OTGW short. I think i have more somewhere but i put them into a box already.

Aw thats sad about harry’s. That was one of my favorite spots. No music! Id get the β€œwaist watchers” which was a halved canned peach, hamburger patty (no bun), a scoop of cottage cheese and i think slice or two of tomato.

some years ago i started an e-mailing list called "someb ooks fun club" to post fun little things, but i only sent 1 or 2 emails because it creeped me out how much mailchimp was tracking people. anyway, here's some free funclub content.

ah thanks! i kept clicking the other gear-looking button on the top right, thinking it was settings, but that's only for Edit My Feeds. i guess i should leave feedback for them that they should use different icons.
