We’re still over the moon by the overwhelming reception of this project. We got our first feature on Stash. A blog and Frame Select on Framerate. And a shoutout at Motion Mondays from School of Motion! And while we didn’t take the stage during the conference, we decided to give our first-ever talk at TOMO, the community that has given us so much! None of this would have been possible without the dream team that’s @epriznee @john.flores___ @jmoberg_sound and @jamesjohnsta The best in the game! Once again, special thanks to @shawn_puck for the amazing opportunity Now, to our next destination

Better late than never! It’s been a hectic first quarter, but we had to take some time to finish this off. Here’s our 2025 recap! 2025 was a year of conferences; we went to FITC Toronto and, for the first time, to OFFF Barcelona and OFFF Montreal! Watched some really inspirational talks, enjoyed culture and met amazing artists from all across the globe! We finished more studio projects and started some exciting collaborations that we’re hoping to finish this year. Thanks as always to all our collaborators, @julieneffmusic @jamesjohnsta Joseph Cheng and Edward Habib 🔥 Excited for what’s to come in the rest of 2026! Cheers!! #2025recap
