SHORT ANIMATED FILM - 4 MINS.
Partnered with Director Sam Stephens and humble.tv to direct a team of badass artists and musicians to produce this award-winning animated short. Tumbleweed Tangp is currently highlighted on the Disney website as part of their Disney Favorites series, has received a Vimeo Staff Pick, and has been accepted to numerous film festivals. It’s been featured by the Huffington Post, Ad Age’s Creativity Magazine, 3D World, Stash, and a host of other animation, film and video sites.
It was a privilege to get to build this project from the ground up with these guys.
