Don't know if you saw the Oscar-nominated short animated film Hair Love, but it sure is a great film. Much kudos to Matt Cherry and team, and best wishes at the Big Show on Sunday night. It's also great that Hair Love has already helped open some new doors to Mr. Cherry. Here's a link to it in case you haven't seen it:

I love animation. Aside from writing, I’m also an illustrator, so these kind of movies inspire me. I wrote a book for kids which I’m hoping to develop in an animation. I was going for live action, but animation just fits better

Amazing production, it has the sweet story and the animation really carries it. I don't think would work in other formats nearly as well.

Bill Costantini I LOVE this film, and I love that Issa Rae got involved! Thanks for sharing! I hope Sony keeps creating such diverse and heart-warming stories (right, didn't they do Spider-man: Into the Spiderverse as well?).

Claude Gagne I feel like the appropriate response is "leave them wanting more" LOL! Have you already posted your animation screenplay? How can we help you in your process?

Glad you all enjoyed it!
Karen E Ross: Columbia/Sony did co-produce Spider-Verse with Marvel/Disney. I remember reading a while back that they had something like 150 animators work on that film. That must be a really nice piece of art to watch, and especially in a 4DX theater seat. (I didn't see it.)
Stay safe, all, and best fortunes in your creative endeavors!

Oh man....I forgot to put this in my original post. He was originally seeking to raise 75K to make Hair Love, and ended up with 285K. Just to show how "yes, it really can happen....":
