Broad Strokes of ROUGE

Broad Strokes of ROUGE episodes

February 15 Panel Discussion: Animating Tomorrow
We hijacked a panel discussion at Cartoons Underground (Singapore's first indie animation festival) and called it Episode 2. What followed: brutal honesty about burnout, which trends won't age well, and what a tiny animation industry actually needs to survive.
Recorded live with Singapore's animation community—complete with tangents and the occasional "lah."

June 04, 2024 What impact will AI have on the animation industry?
AI is suddenly everywhere, and its impact in the animation industry feeds both excitement and fears. In this episode, we discuss current state, practical applications, dispel myths, and dream about the future of animation.
Today, we speak to Ben Zhao, Professor of Computer Science at the University of Chicago and the mind behind Glaze and Nightshade against style mimicry, and Igor Lodeiro, CG Specialist and AI pipeline developer for award-winning feature films across Hollywood and China.

Where is the animation industry at and where is it going? We couldn't find a space to learn about that, so we decided to make one!
