The first film in the series "Human Prehistory 101" went live today. You can view the film here:

I created the script, storyboard, and all art for this film (except for some photo backgrounds), and animated the walkcycles. Susan Harris Hammond of Fluent Studios did all the rest of the animation. Karl de Rochefort-Reynolds (my pa) is the narrator.
Absolutely brilliant. This is an engaging, artistic balance that effectively conveys these complex topics. From the music and balance of color to the narrator's gentle tone. Seamless. Certainly hope to see more of your work available to educate people of all ages, everywhere.
