are you kidding!? this is amazing, Mel!

[TruettReynolds]

That’s so crazy how you develop so many projects in such little time!

[SunnieSheep]

OMGG, everything about this is incredible. Those voice actors, animators and sound designers made the characters and world feel so alive. All of Mel’s videos feel like snippets of feature films, they’re so eloquently edited!
The storyline broke my heart 💔 so beautifully wrote. Everyone who worked on this project deserves so much praise! You all did amazingly 💕✨

[HaneenIAdam]

And now I can't even imagine how complete animated shoes with seasons are made, or even anime! So much work that get's into it, wow!

[sjrwrites]

Oh my word seeing one of my favorite stories brought to life through another medium makes me sooo happy haha! Hopefully someday all the Belladonna stories can be turned into a full, animated TV series or something! This film is incredible, and you guys did an amazing job!!

It's so amazing to see this, Mel. I mean, you're so engaged in what you do: true deepwork. ✨

The World will chant your name one day. 100% sure. Keep grinding. You can't lose.

If someone was interested how much did everything cost?

[rizwanzaman]

I'm an illustrator and motion graphics animator, but I struggle heavily when it comes to writing or worldbuilding in general.

[kwekueghana]

Any advice on how to find an animator? I want to get into making my own animated short films but my only skill is in writing?

[tomantony]

Is that bald guy associated with any science channel
