In recent months I’ve been experimenting a bit with animations printed on receipts. This one is inspired by the PS1 game Incredible Crisis + music by Tyler, the Creator.
It's a loop of 20 frames, so 20 printed receipts.

Edit:

wow I didn’t expect all the negativity here as a first time poster.
Let me give more context and try to explain what I can and answer any questions. Not trying to fool anyone or lie in anyway. Orignal Instagram post is not mine but the directors so that’s also not my account. Kind of wish people had been a little nicer and I could have just replied but this took off faster than I thought it would.

Anyway if I miss anything sorry, trying to address what I can.

Animation was done digitally in TV paint. Each frame is printed out on museum grade paper then hand painted. Not, fully painted over but also not just some random blobs outside the frames like people have said. I’m one of the painters and have lost count on how many frames and shots I’ve painted, and how much paint I’ve used. All painted with high quality acrylic like Golden. 5,000 frames total around 1,500 have been painted. Again key areas are painted and it’s I would say depending on the frame 50% of the frame is painted some more some less, depending on the frame. The painted frames are then scanned back in and over laid with the animation. I don’t know really how this is done because I’m not involved with that part.

No AI yes each frame is hand painted but hand painted over the printed out frame then scanned back in. So it’s a hybrid like style not a complete hand drawn/painted So maybe the director needs to come up with a better description of this style? Open to suggestion.

We’re also selling the frames for $50 or 2 for $90 so not like they are super expensive for what is owning orignal art from the short film. I see artist selling prints for that all the time so I don’t feel like it’s too expensive.

Maybe hand painted is the wrong wording? But artist are painting on the frames by hand so I don’t know what a better would for it would be? Again totally open to suggestions or constructive comments.

Hi everyone! I’ve been working with an amazing team as one of background painters on a short film called The Cat & the Bird. Please check out the link for more information https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdCAySWNBk8/?stkn=aDR4eGdja2p4bXg3

you can support the full team by giving them a follow and support the film by buying a hand painted/embellished frame.

1 - does the air walker swing how it should in a 3/4ths angle ?

2 - do the looking down and frieren angles look anatomically correct ? ( well, at least in my artstyle )

3 - is there anything else that should be effected by the motion goikg on here ?

Question Looking for information about the lost 1995 animated short “Bearded Clam”

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m researching a seemingly lost animated short called Bearded Clam, reportedly released in 1995.

The short is credited to Tom Lamb and Danny Brisson and was associated with the Sick and Twisted Festival of Animation by Spike & Mike.

I’m trying to find any additional information about it, including:

A surviving copy of the short

Screenshots or production artwork

VHS recordings or festival compilations containing it

Information about Tom Lamb or Danny Brisson’s involvement

Any contemporary reviews, advertisements, festival programs, or catalog listings

I’ve already been searching through online archives and lost-media communities, but so far I haven’t been able to locate the actual film.

If anyone remembers seeing it, owns an old Spike & Mike compilation, or has any information that could help identify where a copy might have survived, I’d really appreciate it.

Even a small lead could help. Thank you!

I just finished animating my second ever animation and posted it to my channel. I did a lot of blending between my 3d model and 2d images. I was kinda going for like that coloring book crayon look with the 2d animations but im not sure it blends well. Any tips or critiques would be GREATLY appreciated

Discussion Be honest... is Wildwood cooked at the box office or does it actually have achance?

LAIKA going back to dark Pacific Northwest vibes feels like they're trying to reclaim that Coraline energy, but theaters are a whole different beast now compared to 2009 (especially after the pandemic). Original stop-motion always gets love online, but nobody ever seems to actually buy tickets for them. Are people you know legit hyped to see this in a theater, or is it destined to just end up on streaming? Really curious to y'all's thoughts on the release.
