      Winner of "Best Animated Film" at the 2010 Williamsburg international Film Festival.
    • Quotes
      I became really interested in animation where I could create large epic stories with small budgets. I could have complete control over all the actors by doing all the voices. It's an environment where I don't have to compromise.
