I'm currently working on a wrap-up vlog talking about completing the pilot for Shadywoods, my motivations to create the series and for the geeks: how the work on the pilot changed my rigging process in Moho.

I can't believe it. After almost a year the pilot for Shadywoods is finally completed. Now we'll be doing final reviews, some tweaks and it's off to the film festivals!
