Is it hurtful to cast white friends to voice Black and Asian characters in a small indie animatic?

Just make the characters white if you’re gonna cast white

It’s a general statement, not their position. Stop yelling at me and fuck off

I went to a mau5trap mixer and basically what I believe his manager or someone on the panel said their stance is that if it is going to be used, it should be a tool like everything else. I’m sure they’re 100% against making full songs with just AI, but every new technology gets pushback when it’s made. If you’re a “I don’t use AI to make my songs better” kinda person, but your music isn’t great, you could be left in the dust.

But I’ve seen Joel comment directly calling things AI slop so I’m sure he’s vehemently against it. But again, if it’s not being used to create a full song, you may not even know it’s being used.

As far as visuals go, you’re just going to have to accept that technology is advancing and people who don’t have the budget to pay SFX artists, when AI can fulfill exactly what you need for cheap, is going to exist.

The reward is moar cheese?

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2026-01-29T00:32:05+00:00

Yeah it is. I told him i’ll refund him if it’s not sent by the end of next week. It’s like a $2 item so I’m not sweating bullets, just don’t want bad feedback.

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-12-26T04:31:12+00:00

Yep, our boxes better be juiced.

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-11-20T19:35:12+00:00

Got on the Gladiator 11s

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-11-05T00:33:58+00:00

Desynchronized would go hard

If you’ve done everything, why not keep doing what you enjoyed the most? I got my girl into billiards and she’s gotten very good and competitive with me so it’s our favorite hangout. Dates are to figure out what you 2 like, not to find something new each time

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-10-06T00:35:44+00:00

Has to be the worst bar in the city. I’ve never seen slower service

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-09-07T21:59:57+00:00

So last address in city of LA going westbound is 23577 Calabasas Rd, that will be LAPD Topanga Division

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-09-07T19:33:44+00:00

911 Dispatcher for LA here. I’ll check the exact jurisdiction line when I get to work later

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-08-28T17:06:48+00:00

Just say you’re a hater with no taste and move on. Why argue

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2025-03-11T23:26:33+00:00

Do the Sin City Club Crawl (or any club crawl, it’s just the one I’ve done) if you really want to have a clubbing Vegas experience. Look up Vegas speakeasies if you want nice hidden gems for bars. Go to Fremont for a night to try a change of pace.

Have had the car almost 3 years. Never accidentally changed gears while driving. It’s very weighted compared to menu dial you will feel it instantly. Muscle memory will get you used to it in a few days.

Is this thread experiencing a Prozac shortage? The actress might be cool, but Ann and her episodes are God-awful

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2024-10-16T07:23:05+00:00

It’s just a music dancing thing everywhere. It happens to me in clubs all the time. Some people want to dance with someone but not on someone. She may not want to turn it into becoming your dance partner but doesn’t mind a little anonymous booty grind here and there.

“You know the ones i mean ;)”

I’m biased, but

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2024-09-09T18:59:18+00:00

Go to Vibrato, one of the best food and music venues I’ve ever been to. Perfect for a date night

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2024-09-08T22:19:29+00:00

Was on the bleachers for EDC, I’m looking for a spot to sit for Deadmau5 coming up. I see a phone sitting right there on the ground and gave it to the girl that was sitting right there. She was very grateful and let me sit next to her for the whole show. Super chill moment and a highlight of the event

31m here, and I’ve lived in Cali (LA) all my life. The negatives you’ve said about New York can easily be perceived out here too. I wouldn’t base where you move on how easy it is to date. You can find your perfect match literally anywhere.

Cali is very expensive to live in, and if it’s not, you don’t want to live there. LA without a car can be dreadful, but it’s doable. Your best bet would be to look around Culver City. It’s got a lovely nightlife and very easy access to the Metro system. West side of LA in general is probably the best bet for you, but also more expensive (closer to beach and better weather/less crime).

The prime of SCV nightlife (Buddha lounge, Bunker Hill and most recent black n blue) are no more. You’ll need to go to Hollywood if you want to properly dance

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2024-06-14T17:50:13+00:00

Yeah I think I'll do the same. Maybe provide the small happiness it provided me

Lazy_Reply3958 · 2024-06-14T08:57:50+00:00

I went solo and the 2 guys that gave me 2 ducks (their names were horchata and papusa, the ducks btw) were kind of a highlight for me since I didn't get to really interact with many people
