I’m delighted to share the trailer for The Little Witch, an extraordinary show produced, directed, and developed for animation by my studio Marc Lumer Productions, co-produced by the talented Manjari Makijany, Vinati Makijany, Emmanuel Pappas, and Anil Kakani. This project holds a special place in our hearts as it was co-created with the late Michael Pellico.

We are currently working on a project to create simple explainer videos with a 2D presenter. Seeking recommendations for a turnkey application that supports 2D motion capture or puppet animation. The ideal tool should enable easy lip sync based on a prerecorded voice-over. Thank you! hashtag hashtag hashtag

A wonderful review of our new children's picture book (with writer Mindy Blumenfeld), Hillel and the Paper Menschies, by Rosally Saltsman of The Jewish Press Newspaper. It was truly a labor of love, that Rosally so beautifully articulates that in her heartwarming review.

Recently an artist I respect quit our project because they found issue with our incorporating AI in our production. When I started in this business we animated by hand and edited with scissors and tape. Since, there have been many technological Jacks and none of them ever agreed to go back in the box. The creative clock only moves forward. I put together this little Midjourney and Canva clip to reflect on this little drama. While based on a true story, the likenesses of the protagonists have been changed to protect the innocent.
