Josh Roush wrote the film and co-directed it with me. Since we've officially announced the cast (Michael Parks, Harley Quinn Smith, Jacqui Duncan), I figured this would be a great opportunity to try doing a first interview. In general, I think these short interviews will be for $5 patrons, but since this is the first one (and I'm trying to get more patrons), I've decided to make it available for $1 or more subscribers!2017-06-1831 minNetHeadsNetHeads206: Nope, I StifterIn which a NetHead welcomes an animator to talk shop.
