Hi, I'm Luke, and I'm building a "living library" of videos designed to give children an opportunity to learn things while taking a break in the afternoon. But that's not all. Each video is also designed to inspire them to go do things once the video ends. We are, as far as I know, the only video content designed specifically to get you off platform and out playing again. Right now, we're still very early in development, so I'm excited to share our progress with you. You can follow along by subscribing to the "Behind the Scenes" YouTube channel or our newsletter.

MVP

Update 1.26.2 As we continue to work on scripts, we're struggling to know what is the Minimum Viable Product. Locations, for example. Being out in the real world is amazing, but has its own set of challenges. Shooting on a set is easier, if you have a set. We need wisdom to know what to push for and what is scope creep. And technology. We need that to work. "Catastrophic failure" is not what I want my computer to experience.

Gifts & Myths

Update 1.26.1 I am NOT a self-made man. If anything, I've been given every opportunity and then some. In addition to having a job making education content parents paid to have their children watch, I've also been given a studio's worth of equipment and more. So like the many others who have had opportunities others don't, I'm working to make something of it.

Hard Drives & The Flu

Update 12.25.2 There's everything I wanted to tell you about more than a week ago... the dread of not knowing why a drive just keeps vanishing from your computer and the sinking feeling when a backup system turns off before fully turning on. And then the solutions, both the easy (like plugging it back in) and the difficult (modifying the BIOS). But, alas, I got the flu. And my family followed a few days after that.
