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-...

You know you’re a little too busy when your work-iversary completely passes you by. That said, eighteen years and a week later, from Skywalker Ranch to the Story Group, I feel like I’m just getting started. Thanks to everyone, especially the fans and friends, who supported me all along the way.

We might not have seen much from the movie itself yet, but would it be 'Star Wars' if we didn't get some hints through some toys?

"That guy's not canon." Seth Rogen had my favorite joke on the new Muppet Show special on Disney+. (Confession: I've been playing it every night, just in case the extra streams help turn the backdoor pilot into a new series.)

A hero whose heroism consists of killing people is uninteresting to me, and I detest the hormonal war orgies of our visual media, the mechanical slaughter of endless battalions of black-clad, yellow-toothed, red-eyed demons.
