A night worth remembering ✨
Good people, great energy, and the kind of evening that reminds you why this work matters. Our team, friends, partners, and everyone who showed up brought exactly what the night needed.
Laughter, great food, and a white elephant exchange that got delightfully competitive. Thank you to everyone who showed up and made this evening what it was. Your support, your care, and your presence this year have meant everything!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all!
Here’s to carrying this forward into 2026 🥂

“There’s always those little happy accidents.”
Some of the best moments in a project aren’t planned.
You push something a little further and it surprises you back.

ThermoFisher asked us to show what their new microscope sees. The problem: it sees things smaller than light can photograph.
When the subject is invisible every frame becomes an act of translation 🔬

Efficiency isn’t about cutting corners.
It’s about removing friction so the ideas can move. The best rigs disappear, and what’s left is pure character.

A visual meditation on Qbits 🌀
Where logic meets abstraction
This internal spec piece explores the strange beauty of quantum information through motion, rhythm, and light 💡
Our Art Director said it best:
Animation isn’t the illustration, the motion,
or the sound on their own.
It’s the reaction that happens when they click.
We couldn’t agree more ✨

Some shots hit your eyes.
Others hit your nervous system.
We think about that a lot.
How a frame can spark dopamine,
or how timing can build empathy.
It’s not just animation, it’s emotional architecture.

We love curious visitors. 👀
@schoolofmotion toured our Portland animation studio and turned it into a full feature—this 48-second trailer is your sneak peek. Inside you’ll find our creative playground, the animation team in action, and a few surprises we usually keep off-camera. Think of it as your personal invitation to step inside Deep Sky.
Huge thanks to @schoolofmotion for capturing the magic. The full studio tour is live now on their YouTube—catch it through the link in our bio. 🎬

Back in February, we teamed up with @aepdx to bring @joeykorenman of @schoolofmotion to Portland for an unforgettable night at OMSI. The house was packed, the energy was high, and Joey delivered an honest, inspiring talk that hit home for so many creatives in our community. 💥
We’ve been deep in production ever since, but now that the full talk is live on YouTube, it’s the perfect time to shout out the amazing folks who helped make it happen.
Big thanks to @schoolofmotion , @aepdx , and our fellow sponsors @rive.app , @wacom , and @maxonvfx . And to the Portland motion and VFX scene—you showed up big.
