I have been drawing more than I have in months because of this movie, it totally cured my art school post-semester burnout. And not only am I making Spiderverse content, but I’m drawing all kinds of stuff for my other interests and coming up with more story ideas and art concepts. Across the Spiderverse has renewed so much of my motivation and excitement about heading into the animation industry after college, and just my motivation to create in general, for myself. So powerful.

The impact Spiderverse has on art and artists is INSANE. Everyone is drawing, everyone is CREATING. From colour studies, to the art style studies, to making sona influenced by the movies' character designs. AI generated images are nowhere to be seen, and I hope they're going to stay buried in the uncreative pits they belong in... the world is in balance.

Seeing all the works are... WOW

I’ve seen Across the Spiderverse twice already and I can’t wait to see it again and again forever.

I’m doing Art Fight this year if any of you want to befriend me 👀 Most of my characters are from a vigilante/superhero story, but I’ll soon be adding some DnD type fantasy shapeshifter characters!

So Netflix is releasing this animated movie but here’s the thing - all backgrounds are done in AI. No actual BG artists were hired or credited for this work.

And here’s the kicker - I gave them too much credit. I realized that not even the AI users are credited apparently. Check this out:

“+Human”. No names, no nothing. 

I know it’s tempting, but please don’t hate-watch this thing. Numbers equal profit even if the people watching are just doing it to mock. Don’t give Netflix and other studios even more incentive to fire more animators and replace them with machines trained on their work and skill. 

Hilarously, the excuse used is ‘there aren’t enough artists’. That’s not true - there are more than enough artists, but the real issue is that no one wants to pay a living wage. Here’s a short video about the reality of animation in Japan.

The biggest winners in this equation at the end of the day are the AI infrastructure owners - owners of Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, etc. Do not feed this machine, it creates more monopolization of entire industries, raises a powerful few and dehumanizes the rest.
