RubberOnion Animation Podcast

The main crux of the conversation on this episode are the two dueling live-action "hybrid" remakes of beloved animated films. We wanted to keep this one light as it was recorded during the heatwave h…

It's all about Google Veo 3 this episode. What does this new A.I. video generation model mean for us as artists and just the world as a whole? Is the outlook really as bleak as people are feeling? Ha…

We talk two things we know very little about, like any good podcast these days.

FINALLY! We got some positive stories! I mean we're still in a fog of turmoil in general but through it all some bright spots shine through and we can start to see a picture of what the landscape ahe…

Obviously we had to talk the two big stories — the resurrection of Coyote vs ACME and all this ChatGPT Ghiblification nonsense — but we also have a go at another Live-Action-with-CG-Character-Hybrid-…

As things go, one thing that wasn't really supposed to be a segment turned into a 20 min chat and something we thought we'd have a lot to say about was actually pretty straightforward. We talk some n…

Keeping things moving we have quick (for us anyway) episode that actually covers a lot of topics. There's lawsuits, trailers, and two animation use cases of A.I. in the wild that have very different …

It's 2025 and we catch up on some of the major stories left on the table from 2024 and look forward to the rest of the year. We chat about WFH vs Remote in our How You Doin' segment and see the retur…

It's finally here! Our three hundredth episode... recorded way back in AUGUST. Listen... it's been a hell of a few months. We talk about the state of things and you know what? It still holds up like …

Almost to 300 episodes! This one we're calling an "Animation News" episode but it's really more like a "How You Doin'" or "Whatcha Watchin'" if you will... I put a little extra sauce on this one with…

Another month, another episode! Earthquakes! Technical problems! Things on fire! Train horns! Puppy sounds! All the things that make a great show. And this episode's banner comes courtesy of Rob this…

The big story this episode is obviously Coyote vs Acme but rather than just talk about how much of a bummer this all is we try to wrap our heads around the why of it all. We also start a new segment …
