He's used to working with other indie animators, and I note that Mehdi Alibeygi has joined his team here.

Figured out that you can disable AI dataset training on Pond5 so I guess I'll be uploading stockaudio again. This is a track that was already licensed by a client & available royalty free exclusively via Pond5

a Goombaful Life - Ultimate Super Mario Cartoons YouTube video by Cas van de Pol

Viewers are celebrating the rise of a new genre that jumps right at you with its impactful storytelling. You will never see Goomba's the same way again! Someone told me "Sir! It felt like someone stomped my heart. I was trampled by the shear emotion of this short."

#kaboom #amsterdam #eye

For the car of Jos and Ada, we decided to combine some techniques to make it manageable to animate. Concepts by Jelle Brunt, 3D model by Robin Niekerk.

Trying to deal with the kvraudio.com #downtime by adapting "new hobbies" like miniatures - with slight success

I understand offering a "support" package can be worthwile - but only if the product is fleshed out and hassle-free. This thing doesn't even have a GUI and I still have to deal with copying files into obscure folders. You'll get better support in the TUS Discord. Pass #composersky #synthsky
