Goofy title aside, I watched it a year or so ago and it was actually pretty good!

You do have to give them your email, but in my experience they don’t send much spam: www.studiobinder.com/blog/downloa...

Will he help me chop away some of this editing?

These Story Circle worksheets from StudioBinder are quickly becoming my bread and butter!

My hair is starting to fall out due to stress. This is the second time in my life that this is happened and I’m 22 😅

I’ve unironically had this reaction a few times 😭

Took a crazy amount of rewrites to make this moment work properly 😅

You know what they say, “One man’s trash…”

OMG this was the very first console I ever owned 🤣 I still remember playing Halo and Marvel Ultimate Alliance on it!

Not gonna lie, I REALLY want to get both of these short films made. The only thing stopping me is that I have no idea what I’m doing 😭
