Annnnnd, we're done.
The CARTOON Movie animation festival has been a wonderful experience and a real inspiration. Lots of amazing people to stay in touch with and a few follow-ups to write...
Hopefully next year will be on the cards. Who knows, maybe with something to show π

The Age of Quorum poster, showing a young Black man in front of a red background, staring at something off screen. The credits are:

My youngest cat making direct eye contact with me as she takes a dump, after I *just* cleaned out her brother's shit was certainly the power move.

On top of that, when it comes to fantasy based/video game adaptations, 99% of people's experiences *will* be *actual* cosplay in real life. Fans will make high quality costumes as soon as the game is out, let alone before studios start adapting it. Our perception is already crafted from that, alone.

I feel for the cast and crew when early stills from TV/films of iconic characters are released.
Many set costumes often look like expensive cosplay in real life. Lighting/grading/post prod effects are usually what make it look as good as it does moving, and photo effects rarely match that.

Ha, for good and for bad, for thankfully - mercifully - this time it's the former.
I hope that our hope spreads over to your side of the pond, even if it's a tiny drop.

Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home.
14 years later, weβre still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace β without being treated like a threat.

Had a brilliant couple of days in Hull at From Player To Page, helping teach kids and teachers from local schools all about the games industry and the many kinds of writing and literacy skills involved!
