“Tonight we are celebrating people, not AI. Animation is more than a prompt, it’s an art form that needs to be protected.”

Animation is made out of the blood, sweat, diligence, and hard-working people who dedicated their lives to bring projects to life.

Sorry, rewatched the clip multiple times and I can’t seem to find when he said this. Can you point me to the clip? Was it in the pre-show on the red carpet?

This would’ve been much more meaningful if they didn’t make such a tasteless joke about voice actors right beforehand…

There's a reason I'm a Gainax/Trigger fan. AI just doesn't animate like artists having fun can.

You're telling me a primarily live action actor cast in an animated film for their star appeal did the speech and didn't turn it into a joke about how animation is all kid fodder for a change!?

I mean, he was also Bojack Horseman, so I think he knows animation isn’t just for kids

He's done a ton of voice-work. He clearly appreciates the things animators have to do to make things you see in unlike any other movie.

They did the opposite earlier. The joke was that Will is known for his voice work and it was huge for him to be cast in live action. /s
