i think, on a fundamental level, my biggest issue with *any* corporate LLM solution is that it's built to destroys community. It rips up everything that various communities of people have built together and repackages it all -uncredited- as a shiny, new thing.

There's always some hidden gem you don't know about in #AfterEffects! I'm looking forward to finding a few of them!

New #AfterEffects script! Random Roller allows you to randomly select layers, randomly assign layers to groups, and sort layers into a random order.

Positioning with the magnets is so smart!

Hello citizens of the European Union, there are only 125,000 signatures left for this petition to be taken into account! It really does take 30 seconds.

That close-up shot is phenomenal! Reminds you how terrifying a house cat must look to its prey.

Flow Flow provides a simple, clean, and intuitive curve editor to adjust your keyframe easing. Now with multi-library support, responsive overshoot & undershoot, kbar export, and more!

Flow, for masterful control of easing curves, and the ability to save them to libraries and to apply them via both keyframes and expressions.

Labels 4 Now supports keyframes! Labels takes full control over label colors - set label colors and select label groups with a single button click. Works with keyframes, layers, and project panel items.

Labels 4, to easily apply and select layers by label colours (and quickly switch between colour sets – handy if you need to work with the default set for clients, but use your own set on personal work).

Promo designed and animated by Duo Team

So my girlfriend is an amazing stop motion animator, and she recently did a medieval cat themed bumper for Adult Swim!

Sharing it here because she only has Instagram and I think everyone needs to see her animations. She's so freaking talented, y'alls. PLEASE go follow her!

God, do you know how refreshing it is to see a list of design rules that basically amount to "stop worrying so much about the rules, this is a cartoon"

A meme of the scene from Pacific Rim about increasing kaiju events, replacing text to be about Portfolio day frequency instead of

GODDAMN MICROSOFT SOLITAIRE

Fell down a rabbit hole reading about Susan Kare - the woman behind, oh, you know, most of core foundational icons and fonts in computing history - and reeling about what a massive goddamn flex her portfolio is.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

For the first time in three years, my rogue summoned his familiar as something other than an owl. We were going underwater: finally, a chance for a new form! She lasted 10 minutes before my DM killed her. So, of course, I had to print the cutest, tiniest octopus I could find to guilt trip him.

And spending all of that time wishing for the other 🙃
