Subgenres of Animation Explained
Ask ten people what animation looks like and you’ll get ten answers: a desk lamp that hops, a Ghibli sky, a clay dog with a nervous owner, a logo that assembles itself before an ad.

Here’s what each one is, what it costs, and who does it best.

TIFF: The Market Explained: What It Is, How It Works, and Where LAFS Alumni Already Fit In
Every September, the Toronto International Film Festival fills the city with red carpets and premieres. Starting in 2026, TIFF added something the festival has never had before: an official market. Running September 10 to 16 alongside the festival, TIFF: The Market gave North America its own version of what the Cannes Marché du Film has done since 1959, a dedicated space where films, series, and other screen projects get bought, sold, and financed, separate from the public-facing side of the festival. This year, LAFS had a real stake in that room. Seven alumni worked across eight projects connected to the festival and market, including one who directed a feature.
The Algorithm Is a Distributor: What Media Companies Learned From Creators
Ten years ago, a distribution deal was the finish line. Land one, and your show, your song, or your film found an audience. Now the finish line has moved.

You’ve heard it a thousand times, whether you clocked it or not: that shimmering, quantized vocal glide that turns a human voice into something closer to a synth line. Autotune started as damage control, a way to quietly nudge a flat note back into key before anyone in the control room noticed. Somewhere between an […]
An Epic, a Web-Slinger, and a Coyote’s Comeback: LAFS & LARS Alumni on 2026’s Biggest Productions
Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey. A new Spider-Man. The Looney Tunes lawsuit Warner Bros. tried to bury. Disney’s live-action Moana. The last ride for the Pogues. Dolly Parton’s life, set to music, on Broadway. Six of the year’s buzziest productions, and LAFS and LARS alumni show up in the credits of every one of them. Here’s who did what.
Podcast Production 101: From Recording to Publish
Anyone can hit “record” on a phone and call it a podcast. Almost nobody does it well enough to make a stranger stop scrolling and hit play on episode two. The gap between those two outcomes isn’t luck, and it isn’t a pile of expensive podcast equipment — it’s process. If you’re trying to figure out how to start a podcast, or how to produce a podcast that actually sounds like a show instead of a phone call, this guide walks you through the exact production chain professionals use to turn a conversation into a polished, published episode, from the mic on your desk to the feed on someone’s phone.
