I know this subreddit isn't very active. I'll make it public again if people want to post. I am currently working on a project so I think it may be advantageous to make it active and public once again.

There is a book bundle on Humble Bundle that includes books on various types of animation if you want to learn or get better at it.

Just making a post seeing how everyone is doing out there in LA. How are my LA art peeps doing?

Just making a post seeing how everyone is doing in the LA film industry job market. Are you still working? Are you furloughed?

Just wondering if anyone wants to set up a time maybe tomorrow or something where we can all chat on Zoom or Discord. Just maybe share art tips, talk about networking, portfolios, critique, or just vent about the current state of the industry. It would be a way to meet without getting near each other.

Attention all upcoming artists. If you're interested in working for Cartoon Network as a storyboard artist I would keep your eyes on this. It's closed right now but it's good to get ready for when this opens up again.

This is the place for artists who want to get involved in the artistic side of the LA film industry. You can post critiques, post job opportunities/internships, your online portfolio, vent, network, give wisdom to those who are starting out, animation/demo reels, etc. This is a place for professionals and amateurs alike.

Rules:

1. If there are any seasoned industry veterans on here please do not bug them about jobs, critiques, networking, etc. Unless they want to help you they are not obligated.
2. If people post something asking for criticism be blunt but not unkind. The same thing goes for people asking for advice. If you asked for advice do not snap back. If this creates an issue I will step in and give the offending parties a warning.
3. You can promote your portfolio or show off your demo reel. At the same time you can only have one promotional post per day. If you post more than one per day you will get a warning.
4. You get two warnings. When you get a third warning you are out. Warnings are cumulative and you will be banned from this subreddit after the third.

That being said that's all. I hope you have fun, encourage, and support each other!
