Hey there Anifamily!
So, during this quarantine I've had nothing but time to really contemplate what I want to do with my dream of having my crazy animation come to life. And just the thought of it one day becoming a reality hasn't been enough. I'm more of a tangible type of motivation person. So, what did I do? I have my work station set up with some Foo Fighters and my registered document saying that my idea is copyrighted. I'm also a huge hat enthusiast, so I just ordered a custom hat with the logo of my animation on it. I feel more motivated to make the thought a reality more than ever!
So, my advice to you... find your motivator! Make those thoughts and dreams tangible and have fun!!
Love ya guys and stay safe during this crazy world we're living in! Stay insane!
Tommy
Energy to spare...I can hear the Foo Fighters from here. What's the next project you're working on?
Man, the Foo just get me so pumped! Dave Grohl's energy is contagious! I'm working on my third revision on a script and stylizing my pitch bible. It's a project called Reap'd. Basically the concept is -What happens when all souls that Reapers have reaped have been released and the Reaper's scythes no longer work to get them back to where they belong? It's been a huge passion idea for awhile now!

I've had Learn to Fly in my head since I made that last post. That's a very cool concept, my friend. Gotta keep us posted as it moves along.

That's great Tommy! Nothing like getting tangible materials to help make your project seem "real" I did the same thing with one of my IP's and each time I wear it to Starbucks, I always get asked about it from baristas who fit my target demo. Keep working, it's a great way to cure the quarantine blues!
Oh for sure! I'll keep ya'll in the loop. I'm also developing a podcast to be directly attached to the project called Rip'd. I want it to be to be a podcast with "Reapers" giving insight on what's happening in their world. It'd be canon with Reap'd. That way the story keeps going and doesn't lose momentum.

Thanks Bob! I feel like getting the hat will also keep me accountable, you know. If people see the hat and ask me about it, I want to be able to say, "yeah this is a future project. Look out for it." Then it motivates me to not let them down.

For sure - I had two of the guys say they would watch it just based on the title!
