i’m such a whore for jaw-dropping, heavily stylized, thematically laden, full of heart animation. will forever be impressed at the stories that are coming from non-disney studios having their moment to shine.

Follow up to cringe culture essay: animated film edition
Tumblr media
My post about cringe culture, fandoms, and kids media, which you can read here, briefly mentioned how outsiders mock animation fans for using animated kids shows to say that animation is for everyone. I want to follow up on that point.
I had the displeasure of seeing an awful post on my Twitter timeline that went “the ‘animation IS cinema’ people always pick the dweebiest movies to make their argument. Just post Beavis and Butt-Head Do America guys, nobody would disagree” Wow okay mr edgelord. You sound like a stereotypical Disney Channel bully.
The ‘animation is cinema’ image comes from The Mitchells vs the Machines, which is a family-friendly movie that many hold up as a good example of an animated movie, and how animation is for everyone. This gets mocked by outsiders (usually snooty Letterboxd types) who think that this movie uses the “Grubhub art style” or some BS like that. As you can see, people who act like that think animation is only for children, and plug their ears and go LALALA when you bring up good animated kids’ films with mass appeal. Whether you like it or not, animation always has and always will be cinema.
This brings us to another problem: a lack of mainstream adult animated films. Thanks to the stigma that animation is only for children, we never get mass-marketed animated movies for adults these days, and any movies that ARE for adults are only shown at art house theaters. Sausage Party was a mass-marketed adult movie, but it alienated its audience with its crass humor and kiddie appearance (Silly Rabbit, CGI animation is for kids! /s)
I feel like if adult animated films were marketed more, they would reach a wider audience. As much as I love Mitchells and most of Pixar’s output, animation fans should definitely check out movies specifically aimed at adults. Expand your palate a bit. It’s okay to watch kids stuff, and it’s okay if you only like kids stuff, but adult animation needs to be appreciated more, since it suffers a stigma that it’s all low-brow, poorly animated, offensive comedy.
ADULT ANIMATED FILMS TO CHECK OUT:
Beavis and Butthead Do America (as well as Beavis and Butthead Do the Universe) - These are more teen movies then adult movies, and they are low brow, but they do it (badumtsh) in the best possible way
Heavy Metal (1981)
Watership Down*
Fantastic Planet
Akira
Ghost in the Shell
Perfect Blue
Paprika
The End of Evangelion
Urusei Yatsura 2: Beautiful Dreamer
Princess Mononoke*
Princess (2006 danish movie)
The Plague Dogs
Entergalactic
The works of Ralph Bakshi
I Lost My Body
The Spine of Night
Pink Floyd - The Wall
The Prince of Egypt*
*these are technically aimed at kids, but I mean it when I say that they deserve higher ratings and feel more adult than family-friendly
Feel free to add more suggestions
EDIT: Bringing this back because Twitter is hating on animation once again, and acting like snobs by saying that Puss in Boots is bad. ANIMATION AIMED AT CHILDREN IS STILL CINEMA. CHILDRENS ≠ BAD. I hate Letterboxd bros

hello mitchells vs the machines community, here's an old meme i made for when i would infodump about it ehehehe
[ID START: a George Costanza meme that has been drawn over to instead include a red ponytail and lightning earring bolts, mimicking that of Katie Mitchell. His head is surrounded by colourful lightning bolts, squiggly lines, dots, stars and sparkles. There is text at the bottom of the image that says "I gotta focus. I'm shifting into mitchells mode." The word Mitchells has been edited in, while the rest of the text is from the original image. /END ID]

I know a lot of artists are antsy about art theft right now (myself included, I literally just had a terrible nightmare about fighting the physical manifestation of AI, The Mitchells vs The Machines style…). I can’t claim that any of these things can prevent it. But here’s a few things I’ve found useful:
Opening a free account on Pixsy.com. This website does a decent job at letting me know when my images have been reposted. 99% of the time, the results are just Tumblr-copying zombie websites that just repost everything that is already here. But, it’s sensitive enough that it alerted me when my old college posted my work. They were harmlessly using my stuff as an example of alumni work- but I was glad to be in the know, AND they had mistakenly credited my deadname, so I was able to reach out and correct that. I would have never have seen it otherwise. The website has subscription options, but you can ignore them and still use the monitoring services it provides.
Reverse image searching my most widely shared pieces on haveibeentrained.com. This website checks to see if your work has been fed to AI.
Looking up legal takedown letters and referencing them to draft a generic letter for my own use. This takes a bit of the stress off what is already a stressful and often time-consuming ordeal. Taking time to craft a Very Scary, Legally Threatening, Yet Coldly Professional Memo has been worth it.
Remaining careful about what and how I post online. My living depends on sharing my work, so I have to post it. I’ve learned through trial and error how to post lower resolution images that still look good, but aren’t easily used for anything beyond the intended post, and of course, strategic watermarking. Never, ever post full res, print quality stuff for the general public. Half the time it ends up looking unflattering on social media anyways, cause the files get crunched for being large. I try to downsize my images, while set to bicubic smoothening, to head that off. Look up the optimal image resolutions and proportions for individual sites before posting your web versions. For some work, cropping the piece, or posting chunks of detail shots instead of a full view, is a more protective measure.
Look out for other artists! Reach out when in doubt. Don’t steal from others. Learn the difference between theft, and a study/master copy/fanart/inspiration. Don’t assume that all posted art has the same intended purpose as a “how to” instructional like 5 Minute Crafts. Ask permission. Artists are often helpful and supportive towards people who want to study their work! And, the best tip-offs I’ve received have all been from other people who were watching my back. Thank you to everybody who keeps an eye out for my work, and who have been thoughtful enough to reach out to me when they see theft happening 💖 y’all are the real MVPs. All we have is each other.

This is a The MITCHELLS vs the MACHINES mega posts. This is all of the paintings, sketches and rough keys I did for locations in the “robots take over the world” and “turn off the wifi” montages. Some of these are done in half the afternoon, some take 3-4 days. We had to make these cheaply since it’s so many one of locations for these montages. It’s wire having to find the balance of cartooning a place so it’s immediately recognizable and leaning into tropes and stereotypes. Always something to work on.
1. Rome, painted over re-use 3d models
2. Paris over re-use 3d
3. Golden Gate Bridge !
4. This was Melbourne but I think it became Toronto in the final film. Lots of 3d and photo collage in this one
5.Shanghai, was cut from the movie (can you guess why)
6. Japan, color key for a shot that only made it into a trailer. Silly toilet gag by my friend Garrett lee
7. Taj Mahal , India.
8. Rio, rough paint over 3d. This was chat because it was so dark to have people driving off the cliff lol
9. Taj Mahal alt sketch
10. Rough Mexico paint over reuse 3d. Wish I had put more work into the signage, yikes

What makes Katie Mitchell from The Mitchells vs. the Machines the autistic girlie ever of all time? Here's what the people have to say:
Tumblr media
Katie-related asks/reblogs: x This post will be updated after each round!
Image ID in alt text and under the readmore.
[Image ID. White slide with a screenshot of Katie on the right. On the left are several text boxes which read,
"She has both adhd and autism. The whole family has autism as far as I'm concerned. She's just So."
"Personally I headcannon her having both adhd and autism. She has a special interest, animation. She doesn’t fit in/not the greatest at social cues. She’s my little funky guy. :)"
"That whole family is autistic lets be so real. But also like, her passion and enthusiasm towards her films despite how stereotypically cringe they may be is so me (autistic girly)." End ID.]
