I love bree.odnl’s work and I’m VERY much looking forward to the animated feature but that’s such an odd collab with The Sims!! It’s not the same animated style as the Sims, it doesn’t show anything game-related, and without the plumbob it would just be a regular animation

When you’re 17, people will tell you you shouldn’t major in Film Studies because you won’t be able to do anything with it… it’s very important you don’t listen to them. 💛 My little film degrees got me to travel around the world, get paid to write and research, get featured in the media…
