step

There was a point I hit with my modeling and illustration work where I had to make a giant step from trying to be as "good" as other artist, and into trying to create what I like. Into creating things that feel like "me". Once I took that step, I started to flourish. I became much more happy with the work, and more people responded to it in a positive way.
When it comes to film, I'm very happy with my 2 previous films. But I dont feel like I've made that step yet. I don't feel like either film was completely "me". Both films catered to what I thought people would like and not completely to what I like.
This film is an attempt to take that giant step in film.

Animated short

This is just a place for me to keep things organized. And by things, I mean my new animated short film "Radicool".
The story is based in 1989, and revolves around 2 kids who go a after a treasure that's hidden in a haunted lighthouse. The feel is very much like Goonies, Monster squad, and The Gate.
