Your animation is great, but how do you make any money doing it?

[LucasMartell]

For short films, you don't.

Lucas....Pigeon Impossiable is much better than "the switch" by far. you had me laughing so hard I sent your video to a bunch of friends haha. do you have another project in the future?

[LucasMartell]

Thanks! Yeah I've got a few different ideas but I don't want to spoil them. :)

[Goulgag]

Hearing this you really get the urge to give the poor guy a hug or at least a cookie.

[LucasMartell]

Wait... you have cookies?!?

[Minamiblues]

@pmlomb I want to know too! o.o

[zhj101]

we watched this in school and studied it

[AnimationWorksNL]

Wow, I can't imagine how many rewrites it took to get from The Switch to P.I, but I'm glad you did 'em all! Great podcast, as always ...

[jads2091]

impresionante... muy buena felicitaciones!!! ;)

isn't it weird that sometimes other people come up with exactly the same story? I think its scary! But it just means that ideas are just FLOATING in the air. It's just that our antennae are tuned in on them and they sort of DOWNLOAD into our brains. It's the only way I can explain it. Happens to me frequently. Imagine, one can end up being sued for plagiarism!!! by the way... this is one of the best shorts movies. Thanks for the laughs!

@LucasMartell How do you survive for 5 years doing something that's so awesome and not get any pay for it whilst you doing it?

Tell all your secret so we too can make short films and still survive!

pretty awesome short film :D

but i was curious about,whether you had a team with you or you're on your own from pre to post production on making this animation

Excellence is in the details (also stated: God is in the details). And creating story from scratch, if it's going to be good, requires LOTS of details. Most excellent...and very inspiring.
