    Here’s the run of shots I animated in the councilor’s office, with a hodgepodge of all the versions of ref I took! The amount of time & work these shots took is wild, but I couldn’t be happier to see all the latinos who feel as connected to it as I did 🧵 #AcrossTheSpiderVerse

    Was lucky enough to animate these chaotic shots of Zoey :) it had been a while since l'd done something this cartoony, and I had a blast! 🧵 #KpopDemonHunters #KPDH

    Fun fact: For this shot, I kept getting the note “make Jeff feel warmer” from my supervisor. So after a certain point I just submitted this… it did not make the final cut.

    I don’t think some people understand how detailed animation notes can be in feature film. Notes could be as large as “the emotion of the shot doesn’t feel quite right yet”. To as small as moving eyelashes just pixels to make a character look on model. We control everything

    IT’S A TAKEDOWN! Here’s my reference for these shots I got to animate in the Takedown sequence. I really loved getting to work on a sequence that felt so horror influenced. Demon Mira and Zoey were so much fun 😈😰😈 #KpopDemonHunters #KPDH

    Here are a couple shots I animated of George and Gwen hugging. These were interesting cause they’re in a tight embrace, but emotionally so far apart. I wanted to slowly let them warm into the hug before that connection is interrupted again by George’s job #AcrossTheSpiderVerse

    The fun thing about shooting ref with friends is the unpredictable balance of productive brainstorming and goofing off. Joy Liu did a ton of amazing work for Mira (on and off screen). So shoutout to her for all the help, and for bearing with my obsessive need to do more takes 😬

    Most of the time I just show the final 3 seconds of reference, but not the 30 minutes of frustration it took to get those 3 seconds. So I figured I’d embarrass myself for a minute to give you guys some insight on what it actually looks like to shoot animation reference 😬

    You guys caught this one fast 🇵🇷 they say Puerto Ricans slap the flag on anything, so I wasn’t gonna be any different. There was no snap originally, but I pitched it and thankfully it stuck! #Boricua #PuertoRico #SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse

    For anyone curious, the “warmer” note meant giving Jeff a kinder and more supportive expression on his face . He’s happy to let Rio take over, but he’s also a supportive husband who’s there if she needs him. Here’s a deeper dive into these shots:

    Some shots I did under the water tower after Gwen leaves. I had fun sprinkling in a little teenage attitude after Jeff & Rio kill the mood. But beyond that, Miles is also pretty hurt. So it took a few tries to figure out how the parents would feel after that scene 🧵 #Spiderverse
