Leaky Timbers Pitch Video

Watch the video here: https://vimeo.com/191184006

For the last 3 years or so I've worked on developing a Leaky Timbers TV show. Last week, we officially started our pitch process. As part of that process, we developed a pitch video that gives a small taste as to the tone and visuals of the show.

I think 99.9% of the people I talked with in making this pitch said "Don't put a lot of time or money into a pitch video, that would be pretty stupid" so I did.

This may be my only chance to ever make something with these characters, so I went all in. If you invest as much time and energy into this idea as I have, you might as well pay it off properly.

If the show never sells, that's okay. I'll be sad, but I've had the opportunity to pretend to be Jim Henson for a bit and make something fun with people I love. If the show finds a home, I hope that I get the chance to work with artists and voices from all over to make something special.

Please share the video if you enjoy it. It would help the Leaky Timbers crew out a ton and get as many views on it as possible. There are so many people who have helped me get to this point. Thank you to everyone. It really does take a village to raise a puppet, and I am that puppet.
