Soulja Boy video released!!

The music video we did with Soulja Boy Tell'em dropped today!  It was a whirlwind production, being conceived, shot, animated, and edited together in just a month!


It's a hybrid style that combines live-action footage with cut-out characters animated on the downshooter.
