Lucasfilm Spotlights Animation for Star Wars Celebration with Star Wars Visions Vol 2 Trailer.

Star Wars Celebration in London offered up a hefty bounty for fans on the hunt for exciting new animated content set in the Lucasfilm universe. Panels featuring filmmakers and cast from Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Star Wars: Visions Volume 2, Star Wars: The Clone Wars and more offered updates, including a new trailer and full cast list for Visions

To close out Star Wars Celebration’s animation panels, on Monday afternoon there was a Star Wars: Visions panel. The panel was filled with an abundance of reveals ahead of the series’ May 4, release — including first story details for all nine shorts, the full cast list, the trailer and key art.

The second anthology will continue to push the boundaries of Star Wars storytelling, with nine new shorts from nine studios from around the globe. Employing an array of animation styles from a variety of countries and cultures, the Volume 2 offers a dynamic new perspective on the storied mythos of Star Wars.

Black entrepreneurs do some of everything, including run anime studios. D’ART Shtajio @dartshtajio is recognized as the first Black owned anime studio and now their work is getting serious recognition. To accompany his recent single, ‘Snowchild,’ recording artist The Weeknd tapped D’ART Shtajio to make a music video. With close to 6 million views on YouTube to date, the work of this Black owned company is getting plenty of shine. According to the company’s website, D’ART Shtajio was founded in 2016 by brothers, Arthell and Darnell Isom. From the outset, the brothers “sought to revolutionize the Japanese anime industry by introducing Westernized elements of art and storytelling to the Japanese standard of animation.” The word Shtajio is a play on words in both English and Japanese to reflect the company’s commitment to building a strong foundation centered on their artists and clients. The firm’s existence is unique in the anime space. Indeed, not only do they do great work but their Instagram page also has content celebrating Juneteenth and affirming the value of Black lives. D’ART Shtajiio’s partnership with The Weeknd is a major step in differentiating them in the industry and providing a larger platform for their work to be seen. Black entrepreneurs can move and thrive in any space, this much is sure.

D’ART Shtajio is Japan’s First Major Anime Studio Owned by Black Animators

Black creators are versatile in every way both inside and outside of traditional Black culture.

Two Black background artists, Arthell and Darnell Isom, alongside animator Henry Thurlow, founded D’ART Shtajio — a 2-D animation studio in Tokyo — making it the “first major anime studio created by Black animators” in Japan, CBR reports.

The three animators created their studio infusing American…

Arthell Isom loved anime so much he went to Japan to study and then went on to open his own studio. He's worked on and more! Him and his team at @dartshtajio are working other other Black manga companies like @TephlonFunk and @NoirCaesar

FEATURE: D'ART Shtajio's Arthell Isom On Making The Weeknd's Snowchild Video

Anime and music videos have long had a close relationship. While anime lovers could always turn to fan-made MVs, we now have massively successful musicians adding anime stylings to their work. When The Weeknd was looking to include an anime feel to his “Snowchild” music video, he turned to D’ART Shtajio.

According to CEO and art director, Arthell Isom, the two teams worked closely to bring the video to life. The Weeknd’s team providing insight into the musician’s upbringing and personal style, the studio working hard to create 110 backgrounds with a vibe to match some of The Weeknd’s previous works.

I just learned a thing and I think more people need to know The Thing.

Did you know there is a black-founded anime studio?

Its called D'Art Shtajio and it was founded by Arthell Isom and Henry Thurlow who were sick of being background/in-between animators who had no serious creative input and were paid very little with no credit being given to their work.

This is the article that I saw describing the studio and its projects.

This is the studio's commercial reel (linked on the above article by someone on facebook, where I first saw the story).

Here is a hyperlink to the short that is embedded in the article, since I had difficulties loading it on mobile and getting to it in youtube was a bit of a chore. (Hint it is super interesting and I wish it were longer).
