Hellooo #PortfolioDay!
I'm Zev, a NYC-based animator/ professor. Lately I've been focused on elaborate illustrative pieces. My interests are the Gothic, botanic, queer eroticism, and retro anime.
On IG/Tumblr @zevchevat, and on my site www.zevchevat.com. Always looking for work and cool projects!

“I have no professional interest in people looking at my face” is, not to be dramatic about it or anything, an idea for which I am willing to live and die
and god I mean, more broadly - I resent this idea that someone has to look at me to follow what I'm saying, I like writing and I like talking on the radio and on podcasts, I have no professional interest in people looking at my face, leave me alone

i continue to be impressed by the language work on this...texan?? actor??? who is doing very convincing cadence and mannerism work (to my eye) for young guy from moscow?! wild stuff, but i also credit his prep time and coaching support. actors who can do it are important but they really need assist!

having endured Holiday Visit Sinister, my plot tomorrow involves escaping back to nyc, groceries, cleaning everything, cooking the enormous feast i should have been fed, and getting fantastically drunk while binging dumb television. if my phone rings at all i might throw it into the brackish hudson.

i once resigned myself to endure breaking up with someone in an italian airport during christmas travel, do you think i feel fear
people underestimate how much i am willing to leave any situation. i will nope out, anywhere, any time, no hesitation. do you think i'm not above a magician's smoke bomb or perhaps leaving through a window in my own perfect outline like a looney toon? be serious

In general, AI adoption levels are a measurement of to what extent a particular reward system (a corporation, a market, academia as a whole system) has ceased to distinguish between doing a thing and pretending to do a thing
One of many things the pro-AI crowd doesn't seem to understand is the very important distinction between academic scholarship and the production of papers. Of course they can be related but they're not necessarily the same thing

this is a good case study for how living out of hotels makes you behave insanely
when i asked @leavittalone.bsky.social if i should watch Heated Rivalry, despite knowing nothing about hockey, and not caring to, he reassured me: "if anything, those twinks should be playing MORE hockey"
