Ben Swallow Animation Reel This is "Ben Swallow Animation Reel" by Ben Swallow on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

With my current contract coming to an end, I'm looking for new 3D animation opportunities.
I specialise in stylised gameplay animation, but also have experience with cinematic acting shots.
Let me bring your characters to life! :D

It's time... Today is the initial release of the chapter 1 demo for #DioramaBreak! I'm the lead character artist, focusing mainly on the (pixel art) dialogue portraits and CGs, but I also helped with character designs and guided the overall art direction early on

Pon has news!? Oh, sadly, it seems he’s forgotten the name of the game... it’s not Pon’s Winter.

Thank you for your support and excitement throughout 2025. Our sincerest apologies, but we’d like a little more time to make this TANUKI adventure a truly special one!

Wild story, a font service was bought out by a US company and now they are absolutely dogshit and it'll particularly heavily affect JP games, especially service titles.

The Rockstar Workers Fired Before They Could Finish GTA 6
The Rockstar Workers Fired Before They Could Finish GTA 6 YouTube video by People Make Games

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

The artwork shows a ceremony on a patio. There's a round pool in the center of the image and a round arch in the background. Sisters of the convent are placed in different locations performing different parts of the ritual. Half of them wear a peacock mask and half of them wear sun-like headpieces. There's a woman in the center on the horse. She wears a blue dress decorated with mosaic-like patterns. The horse is covered with blue patterns and stands still above the water. Two twins are sitting on the floor surrounded by large lilies. Behind them one sister plays a harp and another one is holding two bowls with mysterious light. There's a big mosaic tree in the background with other sisters dancing around it. There are two other sisters on top of the wall waving scarves. The artwork is mostly blue and light green

its a sidenote but i actually wanted to ask you about it a few months back lol. because i kept getting lost in some levels and couldn't figure out why exactly, compared to other games without maps.
(i did notice the snagginess, theres a few other things in it that ive been willing to forgive)

Any cool Unity Developer mutuals out there possibly interested in having an early look at Skewy and maybe giving it a little stress test? πŸ‘€

It can:
- Skew any UI object including custom meshes and text
- Skew large hierarchies of objects
- Set up Presets to keep settings consistent between objects
