How I Became an Artist

“2015’s biggest legal story for the animation community was undoubtedly the ongoing lawsuit known as In re: Animation Workers Antitrust Litigation. This is a class action involving the biggest feature animation studios, thousands of animation industry employees, a potentially large payout for the employees, and huge ramifications for the entire industry. The start of the new year seems like a good time to recap all the facts, the allegations, and where the case is today.

In September 2014, plaintiffs Robert Nitsch, a senior character effects artist at DreamWorks Animation until 2011; Georgia Cano, a digital and lighting artist at Rhythm & Hues until 2009; and David Wentworth, a production engineer and computer graphics supervisor at ImageMovers Digital, together filed a class-action lawsuit against several animation studios.

The accused studios are:

Blue Sky Studios, Inc.

DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc.

Lucasfilm Ltd., LLC

Pixar Animation Studios

Sony Pictures Animation, Inc.

Sony Pictures Imageworks, Inc.

The Walt Disney Company

Two Pic Mc LLC (formerly ImageMovers Digital LLC)

Beginning in 2009, the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Justice Department began investigating the hiring practices of several high-tech companies, including Google, Apple, Intuit, Intel, and Adobe Systems. The investigation ensnared Pixar and Lucasfilm as well, and lead to the discovery of written agreements among the defendants not to cold call each other’s employees and not to engage in bidding wars for employees.”

How the Old Spice commercial was filmed. Practical effects.

Not at all what we thought!

[itsmissmajora]

Hatching ties pretty heavily into your draughtsmanship, so if your hatching doesn’t look how you want it to then you might want to get into the habit of doing some draughting exercises.

The better your draughting, the easier it is to draw parallel lines.

Regular, equal spacing between lines is what makes hatching look like a cohesive tone! It doesn’t need to be perfect, but if they’re roughly parallel and equal it will work.

That said! The lines don’t need to be straight. You can hatch with curved lines, or swirls, whatever you like.
