I look forward to these every time! A little about myself- I’m an animator, illustrator, screenwriter. I’m really just a big kid trying to break into the animation field. I’m actually finishing up my pitch deck and pitching it to some pretty big companies/people! I’m illustrating and writing it all myself! It’s like my lil baby :) I wanna know a little about you guys! What’s your biggest motivator? For me, as cheeky as this may sound, it’s my friends. I wanna be able to get my show picked up so I can help out all my friends and bring them on the Success Express with me! :)

Ooh, good luck with your pitch deck, Tommy! My friends are my motivators, too, though I also get a ton of motivation from art that I commission of my characters, funny as that may sound. It just makes me super excited to SEE them beyond what I see in my head.
I hope your show gets picked up!

Marissa Kinzel that’s another one of mine too! Seeing my characters come to life on screen! It’s just incredibly satisfying. It’s like I’m creating my own friends to laugh with lol
Tommy Chandler LOL you know, that's a really good point! It is definitely like having your own friends to laugh with.
Love this post, Tommy, and all the energy within. Be sure to reach out to Jason Mirch. We've brought in a huge amount of animation companies and execs into the Stage 32 fold over the last month. And that roster is continuing to grow to include animation companies around the world. Drop him a line at J.Mirch@stage32.com

I have an animated/live action musical screenplay, The MicroCosmic Cartoon Show, that is in development. It has just won it's 10th award. Woohoo! It is on IMDb Pro. I am wanting to proceed with as much as I can with what I have. I'd like to connect more with you.
Prema Rose OH. My!!! I love space and I love cartoons!! That sounds awesome! I’d love to hear more!!
Hi Tommy,
Although it is an animation it is not a cartoon in the slapstick genre, although it does use a bit of slapstick for fun scenes.
I want to open up the concept that we live in this cartoon, a microcosm, called The Circus of Life and, as the characters, we create our own narrative, for better or worse. The Show is quite dynamic and convoluted at times. Would you agree?

Prema Rose I would 100% agree! I've been reading this book called A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. It's about how we create our narrative and how life is basically a movie and we're the main characters.
But I LOVE that concept!! Do you have anyone looking at it?
Please go to premaroseproductions.com to see and hear much of what I have produced so far as proof of concept. It has won 10 awards and Faith in Film said the screenplay is "Fantastic...absolutely brilliant". It will take a brave soul to produce it. It is delightfully playful while being deeply penetrating.
