Thanks @philiplord and Kemp Powers for your talk at Rideback Rise! As the only animators in our program, it truly resonated with my partner and me. Wanted to say this in person but couldn't, so sending our gratitude here. Much appreciated! 🙏🤘

I've gained a new appreciation for casting agents. Experiencing bad script readings really instills self-doubt. It's a unique moment when you first hear your characters voiced, and if they're totally off the mark, it can trigger a flood of insecurities. 😭😭

I will regret not being able to attend forever. @ThatKevinSmith was someone all my crew idolized growing up. Thanks Kevin, hope to meet you someday. #thevoiceinthehollow

NEW: With the start of the annual HollyShorts Film Festival, it seemed only appropriate that my first stop be their horror showcase. And what a selection they have curated this year. @CriticallyCorr1 reviews:
