What was your biggest challenge?
The biggest challenge was cost, and losing my original animator. This delayed and threw off the whole project, and ultimately forced me to settle for only a trailer, which we will now have to use to raise more capital.
What was your most valuable takeaway?
I think the most valuable takeaway from this experience/project is that they way people receive information today is very different. For issues surrounding climate change and marine health we need to get creative in how we explore these topics.
