Bauza sent me a few old photos tonight when we were first starting out in the animation industry together ~1999-2000. I think this is the earliest documentation of me working in a studio. What a trip, guys #blessed #flashanimation

Here's a few scenes I animated for Hobby Kids. I forgot I worked on this for a minute, lol. #hobbykids #flashanimation #adobeanimate #cartoonguts #butchhartman

Hey this is unrelated, but i was checking your IMDB page and it says you worked on Hobbykids Adventures? Got any flash breakdowns for that?

If anyone is leaking the Problem Solverz stuff, I’d love to get my hands on it since I forgot to backup my work.

⚠️ A massive leak containing model sheets, puppet rigs, storyboards, and other materials from Cartoon Network shows have been spread on the internet. Fans are speculating that the Skydance merger (as Paramount’s content is very notorious of getting leaked) was the cause.

Sam Register is leaving Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios, and Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe after he and WBTV exec Channing Dungey "mutually agreed not to renew his contract". Deemed as a "surprise", a search for his replacement is now underway. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

I just saw the promo for the new Always Sunny season. It appears they also have Ren Faire episode! TTG! won this time.

Watched the new Always Sunny episode about the cake. Just so you know TTG! also has a cake episode coming up this season, so don’t go accusing us of stealing Sunny’s premises. We are just oddly in sync with each other.

If you've ever tried exporting raster images from Adobe Animate and end up with crunchy bitmaps in the export it's because you have to find the bitmap in the Animate library and change its properties from Photo to Lossless. I'm still learning things.

After decades, we finally discovered what causes a bug in Flash when importing art from Illustrator and gradients or linework gets scrambled. It's due to artwork being flipped in Illustrator. When imported into Flash, it's trying to correct the flip or the -180 in the transformation is reverted.

I’m pitching the Problem Solverz reboot.

ToonHive@toonhive.bsky.social

Cartoon Network is open to revisiting classic franchises, but only if “someone who has worked on one of those properties has a pitch,” says president Michael Ouweleen. He says reviving legacy series starts with the people who helped create them, citing Adventure Time and Regular Show as examples.

More Joey to the World. This scene was animated by Nick Bertonazzi Jr. Layouts by Craig Kellman. #cartoonstitute #flashanimation #adobeanimate #cartoonguts #craigkellman

A scene from Joey to the World animated by Rob Lilly III. I'm sure Joey strobes on the pan. I don't let this technique of camera/character pans slide anymore (that's a pun.) #cartoonstitute #flashanimation #adobeanimate #cartoonguts #craigkellman

Instead of focusing on AI, I think software developers should first figure out how to make prompts pop up in the same monitor you're using the software in when using a multiple monitor set up. I would be so much more efficient with that simple fix.

Clicking around Blossom's head in the reanimated 16:9 intro of Powerpuff Girls Rule!!! animated by Nick Bertonazzi Jr. #powerpuffgirls #flashanimation #adobeanimate #cartoonguts

I was talking with one of our bg artists yesterday about how Adobe removed the swf export from Illustrator. It's dumb because I used it when I wanted to animate 3d cars and import them into Flash like this scene. Adobe doesn't know how artists use their software and it's annoying. #cartoonguts

I went down a rabbit-hole and rewatched all of Prophet Buddy last night, it's been several years since I last watched. What dumb shorts those were! I think it might be time for a reboot. Maybe? @mattdanner.bsky.social #prophetbuddy #flashanimation #adobeanimate #indieanimation #cartoonguts

Michael Jelenic and Aaron Horvath, the two responsible for Teen Titans Go and the directors of both Illumination Super Mario Bros. movies, have signed an overall deal with Netflix, where they will develop animated (and even live action) films and series exclusively for Netflix.

hollywoodreporter.com‘Super Mario Bros.’ Movies Directors Michael Jelenic, Aaron Horvath Sign Overall Deal with Netflix (Exclusive)The 'Super Mario Bros.' movie, as well as the duo's 'Teen Titans Go!' series, have drawn massive viewership on the streamer.

Though it seems weird, from a business standpoint it makes sense that WB is licensing out their shows to other streamers rather than HBOmax. Why pay to license your own shows when you can have other streamers pay instead. WB finally figured out how to make money from streaming.

Thanks! Here is my animation process in 4 parts. Hope it helps! #flashanimation #fhfif #adobeanimate #bloo

Hi Sir Eric! I’m learning 2D animation and really admire your work on Teen Titans Go. I had a question about your workflow—when you receive a script, what’s your first step? Do you start with an animatic, block body poses first, or go straight into lip sync?
