I shot this message over to your Facebook account but thought I’d post it here as well. I just got home from attending the Spike & Mike’s Animation Extravaganza at Regal Theatres in Auburn, WA. Your animated short Doodlepops was my favorite short of the night. It was funny as hell and the callback to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was hilarious. I encourage you to keep doing what you’re doing. You’re an extremely talented studio and I look forward to more of your work in the future. Would love to see your work on Adult Swim or other networks someday. I appreciate all the hard work you put into this short to make me smile and laugh for a few minutes.
