Bad creative direction, but make it funny
Subtly Bold is a short animated comedy about working under a painfully out-of-touch art director.
It’s a compilation of a bunch of mini-episodes I made, stitched into one longer cartoon — all about bad creative direction, impossible feedback, and the slow burnout of digital artists.
This kind of character-driven satire is part of how I build my Fresh Cake world: goofy characters, real creative pain, and a lot of humor layered on top.
If you’ve ever worked in design, animation, or creative tech and thought “this feels way too real,” you’re not alone 🍰
