#prop designers

I want to say thank you to all animators, voice actors, writers, composers, prop designers, ect. You all work just as hard as actors to do your best, but you all don't get enough recognition.

Happy Unofficial Charlie Bean Appreciation Day

Should we call it that?

My post that started this 5 years ago possibly because Samurai Jack EPISODE XXIX ("Couple on a Train") reran on @adultswim that day

Your brief reminder that the reason there's so much CGI now, from sets to props to even costumes, is almost certainly because set dressers, prop designers, and costumers are unionized.

We should never go back.

And, before this turns into yet-another "Yeah, but the VFX in the MCU is terrible!"

No it isn't.

The reason it doesn't stack up to other films is because Disney knows they can exploit the VFX teams with 2-day deadlines, weeklong shifts, and pay that means nothing unless you always collect overtime because they have no way to fight back.

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

Can we talk about how in the show Lestat and Armand are framed as narrative foils. Armand and Lestat who are both so aggressively theater kids, but Lestat who acts, who draws in the attention and holds it, and Armand who directs, who shapes and manipulates the narrative. Armand and Lestat's obsession with Louis and his love and frustration with his melancholy over Lestat and Claudia respectively. Who both felt second in his heart. Who fear loneliness above all else. Lestat taking what he wants to excess - no impulse control, and Armand letting things happen to him and trying to manipulate situations to get what he wants but never taking it. Armand, who even in the end, so much more powerful, never physically imposes himself on Louis. Armand who seeks complete control in subtle insidious ways. Lestat who seeks control in the physical. Armand and Lestat brought into vampire life in horrifying ways tangled up with SA. Armand who still talks about his maker with reverence, Lestat who hates his maker. Armand who pours all of himself into his partner, willing to shape himself into what they desire but ultimately needing control to feel safe. Lestat who pours all of his love into his partner but unwilling to change himself and ultimately cedes control in moments to maintain the relationship. Armand who clings to his breaking apart relationship for 77 YEARs, Lestat who let Louis go. Lestat and Armand who watch Claudia die, but one as a father and one as a murderer. Lestat and Armand so intense in their love but Lestat so painfully external and Armand so painfully internal as characters. Both constantly acting and putting on a face. Lestat as Mozart and Armand as Salieri (in the flashback scene!). Armand who loves routine and structure and repetion, Lestat who craves change and excitement. The calling cards are echos, who learned from who. Armand teaching Lestat the vampire gifts, Lestat teaching Armand a new way to live. on and on....

Some Donnie tech doodles! A lot of how his tech works in the show is honestly more magic than the actual mystic stuff. How’d he fit all those tennis balls in his tech-bō when they fought the silverfish?? Maybe he’s been using some ninpō to enhance his stuff far before he realized it…

I tried to be a little more realistic with what might fit inside the tech-bō, though it’s far from hard science!
