Things are really starting to take shape. Jared has almost completed his massive book painting project and Sam has delivered Philo, the puppet.

Even Though the brothers enjoy using real sets and real props, they understand the necessity of marrying technology with the practical.

Matthew would spend the next month, using armatures, air dry clay and stubborn determination piecing together the model of the Very Airy Library. But he was almost done.

After some 20 years in the film industry, the brothers have made many talented friends. That said, Tom Pritchard might be among the top. His attention to detail when it comes to light is hard to match. It’s almost as if he can see things others can’t.

Jared gestures toward a small portion of the set directly left of the front door. “I think this area would be the perfect place to build a little village. We could have a train pass by, and that can transition us into an animated segment.”

Stan was just eight years old when he lost his Father. He even wrote a book about it. The loss left a hole in his heart that he has chosen to fill with kindness, love, and, most notably, the possibility of hope for others. How? Books.

The internet has given rise to numerous streaming channels and distribution outlets. But in the words of Uncle Ben, “With great power comes great responsibility.”

George’s parents had noticed early on that something was “different” about their son. He appeared to process the world uniquely, and it took him a long time to say his first words.

Stan, Matthew, and Jared sit around their makeshift conference table, weighing their options. As the breadth of the show has grown, so have the expenses.
