I'm a concept artist / art director from France, I've worked mainly in animation but did some pieces for video game advertising as well.

Here's a selection from some of the latest non-NDA projects I've worked on

Here's hoping this one is not as blatantly mysoginistic as the previous one because that really was a turn-off for me.

31 % des 16-34 ans «se sentent plus puissants» quand ils ne portent pas de préservatif, 32 % pensent que les femmes doivent respecter leur refus d’en porter et 16 % voient dans ce mode de contraception «un signe de faiblesse».

Attendez, vous voulez dire que la culture, dont on coupe allègrement les subventions dans les collectivités locales, contribue à faire tourner l'économie ? Qui aurait pu prédire ?

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far

i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')
comparison between apple's finder icon and mine. apple's is the split blue and white smiley face, mine is two blue and white anime girls making out comparison between discord's icon and mine. mine is like a screaming cat on a blue/purple slimy background comparison between celsys's clip studio paint icon and mine. mine is similar but rotated with some comic styling and pink and blue highlights comparison between mozilla's firefox icon and mine. mine is similar but looks closer to the old firefox icon and brings back the little arm and gives the fox a cute little smiley face

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

The Movie Magic show changed my life as a kid, it's 100% this. Before that I wanted to be a camera operator for nature documentaries.

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.

Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.

If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

It reminds me this lovely (no) letter from Disney to a woman who wanted to be hire as an animator.
A rejection letter bye Walt Disney Compagny. June 7, 1938 Dear Miss Fords, Your letter of recent date has been recoived in the Inking and Painting Department for reply. Women do not do any of the creative work in connection with preparing the cartoons for the screen, as that work is performed entirely by young men. For this reason girls are not considered for the training school. The only work open to women consists of tracing the characters on clear celluloid sheets with Indian ink and filling in the tracings on the reverse side with point according to directions. In order to apply for a position as "Inker" or "Pointer" it is necessary that one appear at the Studio, bringing samples of pen and ink and water color work. It would not be advisable to come to Hollywood with the above specifically in view, as the are really very few openings in comparison with the number of girls who apply. Yours very truly, Walt Disney Productions, LTD.

Fritz Lang's Frau im Mond (Woman in The Moon, 1929)

This production photo is beautiful, and the film is important: first countdown, multi-stage rocket... A visionary sci-fi movie.

Hello @ec.europa.eu , or whoever is responsible for enforcing the rules, X's AI, Grok, is denying the Holocaust. Holocaust denial is illegal in France. Please don't make an exception when it comes to a billionaire, as usual.

Please take concrete and firm action against this cruel disinformation.

#3157 A helpful tutorial
A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

This might be the most realistic portrayal of being an artist working for indecisive directors/leads I've ever seen on tv. Everyone needs to be watching The Chair Company.
