✨Lo-fi beats, Sunday vibes, and Black artistry.✨

BNA Director Austin Faber @roxinrox (storyboards + animation) and Events Director Marilyn Hightower (BG design + paint) @marilynlives, with compositing by Jaime Matthew @mrjamela — collaborated to bring Nia to life in this cozy little loop. 🎨

At BNA, we’re not just supporting Black creatives — we ARE Black creatives. And we believe in leading by example. 💪🏾✨

The BNA Artist Fellowship is our way of passing the mic and building space for Black voices in animation. More to come soon!!

Happy #juneteenth everyone! Our big news is finally here!! 🥳🎊🎉🎉🎉

At last year’s BNA Summit, we focused on building the skills — now it’s time to own the narrative.

Introducing the BNA Artist Fellowship! A short film program for Black animation talent. We’re aiming to support 3 to 5 teams (each made up of at least 3 BNA members) to create original animated shorts, powered by guidance from industry mentors.

Goal: $30,000
This’ll go toward artist stipends, mentorship honorariums, and making this whole thing possible. We’re an artist-led organization, so we’re taking all the proper steps to make this as effective and fun as possible.

We’re not promising fireworks yet, but the spark is there — and with your help, we can light it up. 🔥

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
