Apple has been up to something again, I guess. They made a custom iPhone camera for the new 'F1' movie. Not sure why, but it seems they mounted this thing on Formula One cars for actual races. It's supposed to capture some racing scenes, or whatever. The camera uses an iPhone sensor and the A-series chip. Sounds fancy, but honestly, I don’t really care that much. I mean, sure, iPhone cameras are decent, but are they really necessary for F1? I can imagine the whole setup being a bit over the top. I guess it’s nice for filmmaking or whatever, but it feels like just another way to show off. They probably think this will make the racing scenes look super cool or something. But again, I wonder if anyone will actually notice or appreciate it while watching fast cars whiz by. Feels like a lot of fuss for something that might not even make a big difference. So, long story short, Apple is trying to be all innovative with this custom iPhone camera for the ‘F1’ movie. It’s on actual cars, and they think it will enhance the racing scenes. I don’t know, man. Sounds like something to make headlines, but will it really change anything? Maybe it will just be another tech gimmick. Anyway, that's all I got. Not much else to say about it, really. Just another day, another tech move that feels kinda unnecessary. #Apple #F1 #iPhoneCamera #MovieTech #RacingScenes

GOG is talking about game preservation again. Apparently, they think it’s a big deal. They’ve got this whole GOG Preservation Program now. Seems like they really want to keep old games alive or something. Not that I’m super interested, but yeah, it’s part of their business model now. You know, game preservation is one of those topics that sounds important, but I don’t get why it’s such a focus for GOG. I mean, we have so many games already. Do we really need to save every single one? I guess some people think it’s cool to revisit old classics, but honestly, I’m not sure how many folks are actually doing that. The whole idea of preserving games seems a bit… I don’t know, unnecessary? I can’t shake the feeling that it’s just a way for GOG to make more money. They’re packaging up these old titles, probably hoping we’ll buy them again. It’s like, “Look, it’s a classic!” But, is it really that exciting? I can see why they’d want to make it part of their business strategy. It gives them something to talk about and maybe pulls in gamers who feel nostalgic. But for me, it’s a bit of a snooze-fest. I mean, sure, some classics are great, but do I need another platform telling me I can play them again? So, yeah, GOG is laying out their case for why game preservation matters. They think it’s central to their business model. I guess if you’re into that kind of thing, it could be interesting. But, overall, it feels kinda slow and boring to me. Just another day in the world of gaming, I suppose. #GamePreservation #GOG #GamingNews #OldGames #Nostalgia

Why does the world of animation, particularly at events like the SIGGRAPH Electronic Theater, continue to suffer from mediocrity? I can't help but feel enraged by the sheer lack of innovation and the repetitive nature of the projects being showcased. On April 17th, we’re promised a “free screening” of selected projects that are supposedly representing the pinnacle of creativity and diversity in animation. But let’s get real — what does “selection” even mean in a world where creativity is stifled by conformity? Look, I understand that this is a global showcase, but when you sift through the projects that make it through the cracks, what do we find? Overly polished but uninspired animations that follow the same tired formulas. The “Electronic Theater” is supposed to be a beacon of innovation, yet here we are again, being fed a bland compilation that does little to challenge or excite. It’s like being served a fast-food version of art: quick, easy, and utterly forgettable. The call for diversity is also a double-edged sword. Sure, we need to see work from all corners of the globe, but diversity in animation is meaningless if the underlying concepts are stale. It’s not enough to tick boxes and say, “Look how diverse we are!” when the actual content fails to push boundaries. Instead of celebrating real creativity, we end up with a homogenized collection of animations that are, at best, mediocre. And let’s talk about the timing of this event. April 17th? Are we really thinking this through? This date seems to be plucked out of thin air without consideration for the audience’s engagement. Just another poorly planned initiative that assumes people will flock to see what is essentially a second-rate collection of animations. Is this really the best you can do, Montpellier ACM SIGGRAPH? Where is the excitement? Where is the passion? What’s even more frustrating is that this could have been an opportunity to truly showcase groundbreaking work that challenges the status quo. Instead, it feels like a desperate attempt to fill seats and pat ourselves on the back for hosting an event. Real creators are out there, creating phenomenal work that could change the landscape of animation, yet we choose to showcase the safe and the bland. It’s time to demand more from events like SIGGRAPH. It’s time to stop settling for mediocrity and start championing real innovation in animation. If the Electronic Theater is going to stand for anything, it should stand for pushing boundaries, not simply checking boxes. Let’s not allow ourselves to be content with what we’re served. It’s time for a revolution in animation that doesn’t just showcase the same old, same old. We deserve better, and the art community deserves better. #AnimationRevolution #SIGGRAPH2024 #CreativityMatters #DiversityInAnimation #ChallengeTheNorm

Il est vraiment inacceptable de voir le Festival d'Annecy 2025 se dérouler sous un soleil de plomb, alors que le MIFA (Marché International du Film d'Animation) semble s'enliser dans une absence totale de transparence et de chiffres concrets. Comment peut-on parler de "légère hausse" de la fréquentation sans fournir de données précises ? C'est un manque de respect envers les professionnels et les festivaliers qui se déplacent pour découvrir des œuvres d'animation et échanger des idées. Les discours enflés et les promesses non tenues de certains acteurs comme TeamTO et TAT sont tout simplement révoltants. On nous parle de revit et de séduire, mais où sont les résultats tangibles ? Les projets ambitieux doivent se traduire par des réalisations palpables, et non par des slogans creux qui ne font que masquer une réalité bien plus sombre. Le MIFA doit être un lieu d'innovation et de réflexion, pas un simple défilé d'illusions. Et que dire de l'organisation elle-même ? Les conférences, bien que nombreuses, manquent souvent de substance. On s'ennuie à mourir tandis que les vraies questions, celles qui pourraient faire avancer l'industrie, restent sans réponse. Au lieu de s'attaquer aux problèmes de fond, comme la question de la diversité et de l'inclusion dans le secteur de l'animation, on préfère se concentrer sur des chiffres gonflés et des apparences. C'est une véritable trahison envers ceux qui passionnent pour l'animation et qui espèrent voir leur voix entendue. Nous sommes dans une époque où la technologie évolue à une vitesse fulgurante, et l'animation est à la croisée des chemins. Pourtant, ici, à Annecy, on a l'impression que l'on piétine sur place, perdu dans des discours vides et des projections qui ne servent qu'à flatter l'égo de quelques privilégiés. Il est grand temps que le MIFA prenne ses responsabilités et commence à agir de manière responsable et proactive. Pourquoi ne pas offrir une vraie plateforme pour les jeunes talents ? Pourquoi ne pas encourager les discussions sérieuses sur les défis du secteur au lieu de se contenter de flatter les industries établies ? Il est temps de remettre en question le statu quo, de bousculer les habitudes et de vraiment se demander ce que signifie "réussir" dans un festival qui se veut d'avant-garde. En somme, le Festival d'Annecy et le MIFA doivent se réveiller. Il est inacceptable de continuer à faire passer des discours creux pour des avancées. Les passionnés d'animation méritent mieux que cela. Ils méritent un festival qui les représente vraiment et qui prend des mesures concrètes pour soutenir l'avenir de l'animation. #FestivalAnnecy #MIFA2025 #Animation #TeamTO #TAT

O que está acontecendo com o logo da ONU para a COP28? É simplesmente inaceitável que, em um momento tão crítico para o nosso planeta, a representação gráfica da organização que deveria liderar a luta contra as mudanças climáticas seja uma simples ilustração da catástrofe! O novo design, que mostra a subida das águas e a iminente submersão de terras, é uma afronta à seriedade da situação que enfrentamos. Essa é uma tentativa desesperada de chamar a atenção para um problema que todos já conhecemos, mas que, na verdade, não adiciona nada de novo ao debate. Ao invés de promover ações concretas e soluções eficazes para a crise climática, a ONU opta por um logo que apenas ilustra o desastre. Isso é um sinal claro de ineficiência e falta de visão! Estamos em 2023 e ainda vemos líderes globais se contentando com imagens impactantes em vez de se comprometerem com mudanças reais. O logo da ONU deveria ser um símbolo de esperança e ação, não uma representação gráfica de um futuro sombrio que poderia ser evitado com políticas adequadas. A mensagem que essa nova imagem transmite é de impotência e resignação, como se estivéssemos simplesmente aceitando o inevitável. Não podemos mais tolerar essa abordagem passiva diante de uma crise tão urgente. Enquanto os cientistas alertam sobre o aumento das temperaturas e a elevação do nível do mar, a resposta da ONU parece ser uma ilustração que, francamente, é mais uma peça de marketing do que uma chamada à ação. É hora de parar de brincar com a gravidade da situação e começar a agir! Precisamos de líderes que entendam a urgência deste momento e que se comprometam a implementar soluções que realmente façam a diferença. A COP28 deveria ser um marco histórico para ações climáticas globais, mas com um logo que enfatiza a tragédia, o que isso realmente diz sobre a seriedade com que estamos tratando a crise? Precisamos de mudança, de inovação, e acima de tudo, de comprometimento! Chega de símbolos vazios que representam apenas a nossa incapacidade de mudar o curso da história. Se a ONU não pode liderar com ações concretas, que pelo menos não se rebaixe a um mero retrato do apocalipse! #COP28 #MudançasClimáticas #ONU #AçãoClimática #DesastreAmbiental
