I'm started a new series called MUSIC VIDEO MIXTAPE where I curate videos from my catalog of work spanning 2007-now.

Volume 1: LONELY HEARTS explores the turmoil of love with a collection including silhouette, paper, & clay stop mo; as well as some early digital work.

After a year of working with @andreaspetersen.bsky.social on this gorgeous new story, I can confidently say it’ll be our greatest collaboration yet if we can get it made.
I’m so ready! Andreas knocked it out of the park here. Kids in the future will wear Written by Andreas Petersen shirts.

This thought has been renewed this morning as we got this lovely review that compares the film to games, which is interestingly enough a very common thing to occur across all of my films.
Anyways, I spent my morning walk daydreaming again about game development.

I often daydream about what a When You Get To The Forest video game would be like. I like the idea of a game separated into seasons as you slowly learn new skills, gather, plant, expand your map, and experience many adventures.
What type of game is that? Not quite sim as it's a progressive story...

Have you seen When You Get to the Forest? Have you rated it on Letterboxd?
If the answer to this is "yes" and then "no", this is a call to action to drop a rating! We are still trying to get enough reviews to generate an average score. Whatever your rating, good or bad, we want it!

These are AMAZING! Do mine next! Do mine next!

A pair of new commissions! 🐸🪴🪏

I agree.
Also, I promise the next film I am hoping to make will be. 😍

I adore this film! True masterpiece! I felt like a kid again watching the best looney tunes shorts. 🦫

Get swept away by our hand made, human made stop motion feature, When You Get To The Forest!
It’s on a gorgeous Blu with tons of extras courtesy of Cartuna.
In my humble opinion, this is THE best way to enjoy our weird, introspective, and emotional film.
Thanks for supporting indie animation! ❤️

A short walkthrough

Our mini home haunt this year! HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃

I'm still so honored to have been a part of the Taichung Animation Festival this year where I not only shared Papercuts twice, but also got to participate in a Stop Motion Master's Talk alongside two legendary producers of animation!

Sometimes, this crazy filmmaking journey kinda rocks!

Pullin' prints today! 💀🫖📚

A Christmas Carol film, but Ebenezer doesn’t get to have a happy ending after spending years destroying other people’s lives. Is this anything?

Here's the link for ya'll.

The weather around here has finally started to feel like Autumn. That means it is indeed the perfect time to snuggle up to my paper stop motion Ghoul Log! It's filled with fun little animated surprises like this one. I kinda love it. 🎃 Someone tell Shudder to let me do their official one next year.

I’d say artists aren’t gone but the allowed to thrive part feels like a thing of the past. I hope the universe course corrects back to that.

Gotta share this again as it’s clear the time of the great frog uprising has come! 🐸

I walked nearly 9 miles around Taichung today checking out gardens, a science museum, and a lively night market. Now Godzilla and I are gonna chill!

I’ve only been in Taiwan one day and I already have seen many wonders! There’s a great enthusiasm for animation here. I had a lovely first screening and an excellent Q & A session after with true stop motion lovers. Had to grab some creepy budget masks for the kids too!

If you happen to be sailing through the crazy blue yonder on an Emirates flight, you can now enjoy the peaceful calm of our film; When You Get To The Forest. 🌲🐈‍⬛
Let it whisk you away from the horrors of being in a tin can hurtling forth at frightening speeds!

K Bye.

I will be heading to Taiwan next week to show my animated documentary Papercuts and participate in a Master's Talk (which is wild!)
Over there my film title translates to: Paper Dream Wonderland - The Adventure of an Independent Animator and I kinda like that title more!

It's October! You know what that means! I am obligated to shill Attack of the Demons, our hand-animated horror comedy that takes place on Halloween! It's been super fun to see the audience for it grow over the past 5 years. On @screamboxtv.bsky.social, Prime, and Tubi!

I totally understand this drawing.

I’m in my hometown of El Paso to share my latest film Papercuts! Very cool!

Woohoo! I'm excited to grab one!

New test print! I’ll be doing a limited run of these very soon, sized for 14 x 14 frames. $50 unframed
I’m liking it!
