say what you want about Chris Rock but he was right about one thing, a black man have talent like this and he's a security guard. a white man has talent like this and he's the architect for colleges, arenas, theaters, gov buildings and fashion designer to luxury brands
Khaliik White, a security guard who draws intricate artwork during his breaks, now sees his work on the walls of Philadelphia City Hall. This is his story: 6abc.com/20021029/

I love everyone's reaction to this but I need y'all to understand that if this was actually in the movie, it would make for a BRUTAL parallel with the Takedown sequence.
in the Free storyboards Rumi pulled her hoodie down off her shoulders to show her patterns to Jinu?? that’s so intimate woww

I remember once seeing someone angry that "if you're already working in the animation industry then portfolio day isn't for you, it's for those of us who want to break in!! stop clogging the tag!!" and I was like haha oh boy do I have some news for you
People/animation fans finding out animation is contract-based work for like, 90% of us is pretty funny. Why do y’all think we’re always hustling to secure work?

The AI layoff gamble is backfiring. Companies that rushed to replace workers with AI are now cleaning up the mess, per The Guardian. Meta scaled back plans to cut staff and use more AI agents after employees spent growing time cleaning up the agents’ technical and security errors. It’s now rehiring managers. Microsoft and McKinsey are limiting employee AI use as costs pile up. Walmart workers say AI scheduling and task tools set impossible standards and generate false alerts. The payoff isn’t showing up: 90% of executives say AI hasn’t yet boosted productivity at their companies, per an Atlanta Fed working paper. Yet more than 112,000 US job cuts this year have cited AI, per Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

treat ur drawings like abstract art and graphic design in the blocking stage. forget 'things', make general shapes and colors look appealing first
question for artists: how do you actually learn and get better at composition?

The idea that creatives need to post a lot of content daily is the reason why a lot of artists have loose touch with their authenticity as a creative. Creativity shouldn't be forced a lot of y'all have turned into algorithm saturators. Slow to down.

Seeing a lot of kids / new commissions artists gloating about charging $3-$5 for hours worth of work in the context of putting down artists who charge $90+ for full body comms. All do respect, you're being a pick me. The people you'll impress are folks who won't comm you at all.

you youngins don’t get that what’s understood as success in kpop is totally different in each generation, first gen had huge sales there was less digital easy access to music so everyone would buy, in second gen good sales were 60k to 100k and extraordinary sales were over 100k

I bring a sort of "everything created by human hands is art in some way" vibe to the function that video game fans don't like much
The issue with β€œAre Videogames Art?” discourse is that too many people fundamentally conflate β€œart” with β€œbeing good”. Plenty of art sucks shit and is still art

And it’s not even just Hybe , even SM doesn’t make them like they used to. A new gen group that’s keeping the tradition alive is ironically from JYP of all places, whoever casted Lily needs to receive free shares of the company.
i dont really like doing nostalgiabaiting older = better stuff but man you listen to older kpop songs and there are entire genres of vocalists who have just gone Extinct. or endangered at least
