April update (Patreon)

Hi all of my Large Babies and welcome to April!

Lots of stuff is always happening and I have a lot of projects in the works.

Barber is going very well! This month is a lot of getting the film super organized and structuring my final pipeline and animation process before May, where I will be starting the final 5 month sprint to finishing the film. The film will be done within the year, probably finalized in October. I'm shooting to finish all animation by the end of August, and then I think Dylan will be finishing music in September, and I'll be doing finishing touch stuff. The schedule is a little open ended just in case something bad happens, but I'm pretty excited. I'm really proud of the film and I think it's the best thing I've ever made. Wahoo.. Excited to spend these next months barreling towards the finish line

Working on a bunch of other stuff this month as well. I am doing guest animation for Erica Wester's "Welcome to Hell 2" (paper and pencil and registered cutouts!), as well as a little promotional video for ItemLabel (Peepys and Sucklets). Some of my friends, Andrea Reyes, Yasmeen Abedifard and Kelly Ficarra are helping me make a makeshift pilot episode animatic for The Peninsula Siblings, which is my weird kids show pitch I've been working on. I'm also working on another makeshift pilot episode animatic for a show I've been helping my friend Emily Martinez develop for the past year, "Pathetic!", which is an adult animated comedy. All of that I'm working on this month as well as Barber. LOL

I'm really thankful for all of your support- For the past year I've been trying to make my monthly rent thru Patreon, and I've been getting by, but it's been honestly very stressful, but this month I finally covered an entire month with one payout :) I'm only able to dedicate my life to making the film I want to make because of all of your generosity and it's really meaningful to me. I'm really excited for you all to see the movie!!

Also it's my birthday on the 24th :) I'm turning 24....... 

Viva la large babies

Love, Jonni
