// #TurningRed spoilers. These were some of the most fun shots I’ve ever gotten to animate. I was also amazed to see they used my rough fx sketches as some of the actual fx in the film!

There are 4 lattices in the shot, one for each side of the bun, one for the dog itself and one as a shockwave across his face. If ur a lattice hater plz unfollow.

One of my biggest career regrets is not being able to spend more time working with the #WinOrLose crew. In my very short time, however, I was finally able to animate a hot dog slapping someone in the face. Stream the first 4 episodes on Disney+ now!

Ultimately we decided it was a bit busy/distracting, so the final version is just a very poor English lipsync. I tried to only use Jaw up/down and a tiny bit of mouth corner left/right.

My first pitch for Lance Slashblade’s lipsync in #InsideOut2 involved getting a Japanese-speaking animator to translate and record Lance’s lines for me. I matched his mouth to the translation so it would look like the actual line was an English dub.

While I’m not a hockey player myself, I was lucky to get lots of guidance from hockey experts at Pixar when inventing Riley’s “thread the needle” move for #InsideOut2. I watched so much hockey that YouTube still recommends Peter Forsberg compilations a year later 🏒

Cat is one of the best to ever do it. Not just an incredibly skilled animator, but one of my favorite people to be around. If there’s any room on your team, hire her before someone else does!.

Here are some alternate angles of the mouth shapes in Luca. It takes a lot of work to get it to look that simple!

This was also the first thing I animated on my wfh setup when we thought we'd only be home for the weekend. It actually ended up lasting a bit longer than that.

The great thing about Soul coming to theaters this week is that this post-credits shot I animated with Terry actually makes sense now.

As much of a pain as teasers are to make, it’s always fun to see everyone’s reactions to the team’s work so early. I was lucky enough to do this shot with all the core emotions in it, and also introduce Anxiety to the world! #InsideOut2

I was shocked to learn that older animators did not have the same reverence for Space Jam that I did 💀.

working in animation is realizing a coworker was a lead artist on tarzan, your favorite movie ever, going "i. literally work in animation because of you", and for the coworker to say "sorry about that".

I always compared these #Elemental shots to building a ship in a bottle - I wasn’t able to hide the set while animating because it was integral to Ember and Wade’s motion, so I was stuck in the crack along with them. So many headaches in this little space!

Tarun continues to be one of the best to ever do it 🙌🏻.

Early #Elemental animation test in 2D! It was really fun to explore the uniqueness of how fire people would move in this world. This was done early to help influence animation sensibilities and what we would need built for the cg rig as it got built.

Small note, this isn’t the fantastic work of Mason Wertheimer, Clod’s real voice. This is an excerpt from a retro news interview in the 80’s.

An #Elemental anim test I did with our boy Clod! Experimenting with how much texture we could put in the earth character’s movements to make them feel like they’re made of dirt/rocks.
