Really want to use this platform to give insight into visual effects and animation. I think I'll be posting here more often.
I've had the opportunity to work in the film, television and animation industry for 15 years now.

Always wild to me to see how much a shot can change over the course of production. Everything from inklines and animation to updated lighting passes.
How many differences can you spot in my shot?

You remember that movie whose marketing said they didn't "rely" on "CGI" and the actors breathlessly talked about the practical effects and no green screens?
Guess what. They relied on digital visual effects to make the movie.
Yep, that movie. And the other one, too. And the other one, too.

Every time someone repeats the totally incorrect myth that "CGI" is cheaper than practical effects—it's not and that's a ridiculous statement—'because "CGI" isn't unionized,' they're unwittingly giving ammunition to studios who are arguing that unionization would be bad for the industry (it's not).

I feel like a lot of my tweets that popped off were the ones that I talked about my work on Across the Spider-verse?
I have a game. What were you "known" for on Twitter?
I'll go first. I'm the woman who caused Dave Ramsey to mass-block Royals Twitter.

Of everything I did on Spiderverse, I'm proudest of my work on Gwen's world - an alternate reality of color and emotion.
