update on

feature

I've been animating furiously (well maybe not furiously, I'm pretty happy) to turn my graphic novel Hell Toupee into a feature. Early in January I previewed the first 27 minutes of it as a cliffhanger at the Hell's Kitchen NYC Festival and it won Best Animation. Now it is 47 minutes long and the distributor wants it 70 minutes long. I am expanding and deepening the story and I think improving it. I am aiming to finish it by the end of 2020. I will keep you updated here. You can also see nearly daily updates on Facebook if you friend me.
