    Good luck. Here's hoping he doesn't burn himself out. No matter how many corners you cut on the productions that's going to be pretty brutal to keep up with.

      Is he really best known for those? I've pretty much skipped all of them and only seen what I guess you'd call his live action videos, although that term barely feels right for YouTube videos that are just a few minutes long.

        Of his top 10 most popular videos, 7 are the animated skits, and 1 is a tutorial for how he makes them. In this video about the feature length films, he roasts the people who won't watch this announcement because they only watch his animated stuff.

          Funnily enough, that tutorial was the first video of his that I watched, and it got me hooked on the rest of his channel. His work is fantastic across the board, and I'm super pumped to see what he creates in the coming year.

    Good luck! I think Uncut Gems was shot in 39 days or something like that. That's my only frame of reference I have so this sounds pretty fucking tough. Technically to be feature length, I think the runtime needs to be 45ish minutes.

    Seems like a good place to plug Joel Haver's second channel, Joel Talks About Movies. Just a space for him to talk about what he's been watching and how he feels about it.
