NYC Rambling: Failing Forward Oct 03, 2016

This year I launched a new production company and built out a full studio to create shows for Comic-Con HQ. That ride came to a sudden, screeching halt. Here’s my honest, albeit rambling untangling of the last two weeks.

I want to thank Lionsgate/Comic-Con HQ for giving us the opportunity to swing away and play with some dear friends. I wish their platform the absolute best and hope our professional paths cross again in the near future.

Also, thanks to that swing, The Attack still has a home packed with enough goodies to create all manner of whimsy. So feel free to tune in and watch the next chapter unfold in real-time: http://www.TheAttack.tv
