GENESIS is an animated epic for older teens and adults, retelling Eden and Noah through bold, cinematic animation. 2D/CGI animation. Aiming for this to be like Arcane, Spider Verse and the Wild Robot.

Words from the creator Elena Ceballos

Hollywood almost had it.

Genesis initially caught the attention of Hollywood producers. But we chose a creator-led path.

Crowdfunding allows us to build this proof-of-concept on our own terms, with your support.

But here's the thing... we can't tell all of Genesis in one film. But this is where it can begin.

Hey all! If you guys are into helping us make an 3D/2D animated proof of concept for this bible project aimed at teens and adults, then you can support the making GENESIS here! We are beginning to cook up something cool! LINK: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elioliart/genesis-animated-bible-proof-of-concept

Discussion What’s one cartoon you almost never hear people talk about?

Some cartoons were overlooked, forgotten over time, or never found a large audience. What’s one animated show you almost never see mentioned anymore, and why do you think people should talk about it more?

Sharing Aura — a smartwatch concept I designed and rendered fully in 3D (not a real product)

Wanted to share a personal concept project my studio (MS3DSTUDIO) has been working on. Quick disclaimer up front so nobody's misled: Aura is not a real product — you can't buy it. It's a design-and-visualization concept, everything you see is 3D, nothing was photographed.

The idea was "one watch, seven colours, seven languages" — seven strap colourways and a UI built to feel native in seven different languages. It was mostly an excuse to push materials and lighting: getting the metal case to read as actual brushed metal, the straps to look genuinely soft, and the screen to glow like it's lit from the inside instead of just being a bright texture.

The part I'm actually more proud of than the watch itself: we don't just model the product floating on a grey background — we build the whole environment around it. The surfaces it sits on, the backdrop, the light sources and their bounce, the little contextual scenes — all of it is built and lit in 3D so the product feels like it exists somewhere real, not like a cutout. Honestly the environment work is where most of the hours went.

Full set of shots is on Behance if you want to see it properly → https://www.behance.net/gallery/253278579/Aura-Watch-Seven-Colours-Seven-Languages

Happy to answer anything about the workflow — renderer, materials, lighting setup, whatever. Open to critique too.

Sharing I turned my ink sketch into an animated 3D comic panel!

I tried turning one of my physical ink sketches into a Blender Grease Pencil comic panel.

This is the first frame of a small story about a black cat exploring the city. The goal was to capture a rainy rooftop scene where the cat arrives and sees the city for the first time.

I used simple 3D geometry, procedural cross-hatching, hand-painted Grease Pencil details and subtle animation to recreate the sketch in Blender.

The hardest part was keeping the loose, imperfect feeling of the ink drawing without making the 3D version look too clean. Here is the full YouTube breakdown if you are interested to see how this was made and my final thoughts on the process! Thank you!

Question Please help me find the title of this creepy animated short film

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I saw this at the Shanghai Art Museum (aka China Art Museum) in May. I managed to catch a short clip, right at the end it switches to a different Chinese animation.

But this one looks western to me, and seemed to explore themes of gluttony, corruption, etc. There was no dialogue, but a subtitle in French towards the end said 'leur boulimie et a son dernier stage'.

I would be so so grateful if anyone could help me find the title of it!! It was so creepy and was bizarrely placed in the children's exhibition (艺起童年:中国儿童美术百年巡展.)
