I pretty much only want to meet people who will actually take the time to write me a note to say hi and tell me something interesting when you send a Add Friend request. I mean, why should I add some random band or person as a "friend" if they wont take the time to be friendly? It's not a popularity contest here :)Definitely creative people, from film/broadcast industry, designers, artists, people from Hawaii (my home state) and New York, etc.... People that would like to collaborate on film/animation projects! I'm anxious to start my next project and bring some more talented people on board.
I'd love to meet the strange and brilliant animators Jan Svanmeyer and The Brothers Quay. They inspire me.
Anyone that wants to hire me!!! Working freelance now...but would love to find something permanent.
Anyone thats hip, hot, geek, sheek, likes indie rock, art, acting up, being serious, being goofy, having fun, just chilling, snowboarding, surfing, traveling, etc... If this sounds like you, or if you are just an interesting soul then drop me a note hello...
