Hey, #portfolioday.
I'm an artist, animator, and library music historian
I draw and animate whatever is on my mind that day. Here's a Demo Reel for some examples of my work.
If I had to choose one scene as my favorite Eric Bauza performance, it would be this scene from "Erabbitcator." Eric managed to nail the angry screaming Bugs Bunny in a way no one else had since Mel Blanc.

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.”
When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.”
They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.
every single reporting of this new feature is extremely obnoxious because its fearmongering about a highly requested feature that stems from discussions surrounding troubleshooting and whatnot becoming relegated to closed off discord servers instead of public forums and discussion boards.
I cannot stress this enough, this is a good thing, and the ability to opt-out of something like this is also a good thing, however this is only for: Discoverable Servers With >1000 Users In The Server.
I cannot stress how much you would want this, but because Dextero (lol) worded it in such a vague and scary way, it makes everybody needlessly oppositional towards the concept of such a feature.
No this does not leak your private discord conversations.
I really don't want to hear conservatives smear LGBTQ+ people as "groomers" when they're defending the Republican POTUS who is literally a rapist and a pedophile.
Or when so many of their own end up getting exposed as groomers and sex pests.
It's always projection.
The Starlight Children's Foundation is accepting donations on Eric Bauza's behalf, who was fundraising for the charity before he passed. It would be wonderful if you could donate or spread the word donate.starlight.org/fundraiser/7...
Speechless…. It was so sudden….
Thank you IMMENSELY for everything Eric
You gave everything your all…
We wouldnt be here together if it weren’t for you
Till we meet again 🌹
Just found out out I'm speechless. Bauza was the nicest guy...
Never acted the big guy around crew even on the smallest productions, dude would show up at muppets just for a bootstrap pizza party, zero ego and so genuine. Didn't know him well but truly shocked to hear this
Happy Intersex Awareness Day! Here’s some pride art featuring Stevonnie, an intersex non-binary character from Steven Universe. I’ve also included some facts for other perisex (non-intersex) queer folks to know! 💛💜
This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.

Obviously everybody knows him for doing the Looney Tunes but my personal favorite role of his was Lord Stingray from Superjail
I am actually in shock I can't fucking believe such a talented person is gone so young
Eric Bauza is the first celebrity death this year to hit me like a truck. It's a miracle Coyote Vs Acme came out, because it may very well be the perfect showcase of his ability to voice every one of the Looney Tunes without needing to share the roles with two or three other actors
Before Eric's breakout modern roles we're all familiar with, he actually did a lot of indie animation, known back then simply as internet animation.. I was so touched then when he liked Baman, he made it a point to come see us when we were visiting 6point after working on the Dick Figures movie
We were just nobodies but he was so excited to finally meet us in person (we usually live on the other coast). Eric was so kind, and he really did just love animation as a medium. When he blew up and started voicing bugs I just would always smile remembering what a sweet man that guy is. A huge loss
Take care of yourself today
Check on your friends to make sure they are good
The universe is full of chaos, you can't know what is going to happen next, and all you can do is your best and make sure you are kind to yourself and those around you
It's important to remember on days like these
Rest in Peace to a man who fought for true art, even in the face of corporate greed…
Rest in Peace to a man who used his voice, enthusiasm and energy to uplift and inspire…
Rest in Peace to a man who always knew how to make us smile and laugh…
Rest in Peace to a once-in-a-lifetime legend…
Eric truly was one of a kind. He was the first professional VA I met starting in art college and among the first industry friends i made at the same time.
I made this for him for a convention in Burbank today. I never expected it to become a tribute piece.
Rest Easy, Eric.
absolutely sick to my stomach. Eric was so rare in that he was both such an immensely talented voice artist AND a truly talented animator in his own right. an inconceivably gigantic loss.
I remember when I first heard Bauza's Stimpy when watching Adult Party Cartoon, or when I saw Looney Tunes Cartoons and heard his now well-known Bugs and Daffy voices. He was an actor like no other, and it's a shame to see such an amazing talent die at such a young age. Rest easy, Bauza.
Eric Bauza, the current voice of Bugs Bunny and so many others, has unexpectedly passed away.
I am gutted. A modern voice acting genius, Eric was the true successor to Mel Blanc while simultaneously always showing his respect and gratitude to Mel and all the others he followed.
R.I.P. to Eric Bauza
Out of all the actors who voiced the rabbit, you were the one who came the closest to Mel's original voice. You should've been around for 40 more years to voice him.
