Happy Honda Days

During the holidays, we took Helpful Honda to the North Pole, and it was easily my favorite time of the year. I’ve always loved stop-motion animation, so it felt like enjoying the best cheesecake every day for ten days straight—indulgent but absolutely worth it. I loved concepting the scripts, songwriting, the puppetry, and creating entire worlds out of latex, felt, and tiny kitchen mixers. Each year, we worked with incredible talent, from all-star voice actors to the cinematographer of 'Marcel the Shell With Shoes On.'

SCRIPTED

Loved writing and art directing these. I always loved building a world every year where the impact of a Random Act of Helpfulness one year could grow or push a character.

SONGS

I make up songs in my head everyday, always loved coming up with words and rhymes and the composition with the amazing Gabe Sokoloff.
