Sad to report that visual effects artist Chris Stoski has passed away. Chris was the ILM digital matte supervisor for "Star Trek" (2009), and was responsible for this amazing painting of the Enterprise under construction.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

This is a really great piece about Fincher's Zodiac and conspiracy theories.

(And it's written by the creator of one of the best TV shows of the past 25 years to boot.)
“The trouble is, there will always be more details, and when the details run out, there will always be more dots to connect, and when the connections become worn, there will always be more patterns.” - @ifyoucantwell.bsky.social on ZODIAC

From the first frame, there is dread. We bought the ticket, we know what Zodiac is about. We know it really happened. Even if we don’t know the details, we have an idea.

"I then came across the most helpful piece of the puzzle from a veteran cameraman, in a forum post I can no longer find" is the kind of sentence that hooks my attention. the lost, forgotten lore of a bygone age.
This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.

Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

[NOUVELLE VIDÉO] Bon. Orwell. On en a marre ou pas ?

À force de mettre 1984 à toutes les sauces est-ce que ses dystopies sont devenues des clichés qui ne veulent plus rien dire ?

Où est-ce qu'il y a encore quelque chose à en tirer ?

On en parle pour @humanite.fr
