Under The Onion Skin

We hit 1,000 subscribers on YouTube! 

That might just sound like a number on a screen, but to put it into perspective: 1,000 people is 15 full school buses or 5 sold-out cinema halls filled with fellow artists and filmmakers. That blows my mind, and I am so grateful to have you here for the ride.

To celebrate this milestone, I’m opening up my studio system to you! As an independent animation director, if you don't stay organized, you easily drown in administrative headaches.
