Collaboration Opportunity

The prototype process of a new “super top-secret” PC game project is now underway at No, Mine! Studios!

It takes a few hits at capitalist excess, but at its heart it’s a lot of comedic fun. A small team of volunteers is on board, and we would love to bring more collaborators into the mix. If you’re interested in learning more about this latest antic, email nominestudios@gmail.com.

See you tonight!

The South Side Animation Club returns to The Grand Cinema from 6 – 8 p.m. on August 9 (tonight)!

Animators looking to collaborate, work on projects, or showcase your progress, this is for you! This meeting is free & all ages; children are welcome with adult supervision. Some general supplies such as newsprint and light tracing boxes will be provided for shared use, but feel free to bring laptops, tablets, sketchbooks, tracing paper, pens/ pencils, or anything you need to work on your own project. The Grand is providing a projector and screen so that we can share works in progress, so please consider bringing a USB drive with your work if you’d like.

Indie game devs, writers, voiceover actors, composers, sound designers, and more, you’re welcome, too!

Thank you to The Grand Cinema for hosting us, as well as the City of Tacoma Arts Commission and Office of Arts and Cultural Vitality for sponsoring the Animation Club as a 2023 Community Arts Project.

See you at The Grand, and bring a friend! 🙂

I am excited to share my latest collaboration with Tacoma Artist Mauricio Robalino. Mauricio was awarded a grant as part of the Tacoma Artist Initiative Program to document his work and processes through a series of short videos. Due to the pandemic, we were only able to meet in person a couple of months ago, but since then, I have helped him with recording audio, editing, and shooting additional footage for his project. This series has been a lot of fun to work on!

Here is the link to his video entitled Artist Philosophy.” Please subscribe to his YouTube channel to check out other videos in the series and share with friends.

Thank you for your support!
