I always liked the anime illustrations in the original NES Zelda manual, and it saddened me to find out these weren’t actually part of a real animated promotion for the game. So I decided to take those illustrations and re-create them as if they were!

Enjoy this long-lost VHS promotion for the Legend of Zelda on the Nintendo Entertainment System!

Rest in Peace, Don Perro - Canadian Animation Legend

I just learned that my animation teacher from Capilano University, Don Perro, has passed away. He was a kind, soft spoken man who liked to talk about his champion agility sheltie & his time working on shows like Ren & Stimpy and The Raccoons. Don was the beating heart of Cap U's animation program. I wasn't a great student of Don's; my then-undiagnosed social anxiety & neurodivergencies kept me from ever entering the Vancouver animation industry after I graduated in 2010. Instead of creating a final film for Grad Show, I published a damned book - a literary book, not even an illustrated one.

Despite this, he still watched my career; we were friends on Facebook. He was a good dude, & I'm really sorry that I was often so nervous around him (I was afraid of him due to my social anxiety,) not to mention kind of defiant as I once rebelliously wrote a lengthy tutorial about how animals move - particularly why wrist/fetlock joints are still important with quadruped characters - on his whiteboard for his 1st year students when I was a 2nd year.

I'll always remember how in my 1st year he spent about an hour getting us all settled & working one day, only for a 2nd Year to come charging in exclaiming that there was free leftover food in the conference room down the hallway; my entire class bolted for that food like a pack of starving feral dogs! (This is probably one of my favourite recollections of Don, and my 1st year of animation school in general.) The man had had to have had some serious patience to tolerate spending every day with a bunch of intensely nerdy, hyperactive, sleep-deprived, extremely food motivated students every day.

My heart goes out to Don's family, friends, & the rest of the Canadian animation community for his loss. 💔

i say this with all my heart, from one person who cares about animal welfare to hopefully many others:

please take the term “factory farm” out of your vocabulary when discussing animal welfare

talking about the welfare of livestock and livestock production is incredibly important! all animals deserve to have the best welfare possible, regardless of if they’re going to end up on a plate or not

but the term “factory farm” does not actually discuss animal welfare in the way so many people seem to assume it does

for starters, “factory farm” is not an actual industry term. it doesn’t actually mean anything, because what constitutes a factory farm is completely subjective. you will never see the phrase “factory farm” in any kind of published research or official article because, again, it doesn’t mean anything

sure, the phrase definitely has connotations. and the connotation is the issue here. people use the term “factory farm” as a shorthand for… well, typically, “farming practice i don’t understand but think looks bad”

the term isn’t something neutral. it is specifically designed to create a negative image when you hear it. someone says “factory farm” and most people imagine large amounts of animals kept in bad condition

the key here: large amounts of animals

the size of a farm does not dictate the welfare of the animals on it. there are plenty of large farms with hundreds, thousands of animals that take stellar care of their livestock. there are small farms with only a couple animals that live horrible lives

the size of a farm is not the issue when it comes to animal welfare, but rather the practices used on the farm. sometimes they do go hand in hand, yes. there are some practices that are only necessary because of the amount of animals present

but say that

there are other terms that are actually industry terms that work better for these scenarios. try “conventional farming” “industrialized farming” “commercialized farming”. these actually have meanings that you can then jump off of into talking about animal welfare practices on these farms

“factory farming” is just a term used to paint farming in an entirely negative light, when what actually makes a farm have good or bad welfare depends on so many other things
