The Best Animation Instagrams Of The Week
Yeah, it’s crazily addictive. But Instagram is also a peerless resource for discovering new artists, and new facets of artists we thought we knew. The professional and the personal often meet in their profiles, which burst with casual sketches, artwork for future projects, behind-the-scenes materials for existing films, and more. That’s worth getting addicted to.
We’ll be posting regular showcases of our fave new Instagram accounts, from both indie and industry figures. We’re always on the lookout for more artists to feature — if you want to recommend one, do so in the comments below or send a note to news (at) cartoonbrew (dot) com
