Stop-motion is something I’ve always wanted to try, so shoot - I had the time to do it. I also created a short stop-motion animation called Snail Mail for Tiger as a little advertisement for the service. Maybe you feel as if you don’t have the time and sending mail keeps getting pushed back. Maybe you don’t have the materials to do so. Or someone who is doing ok, but a piece of mail just makes them smile even more. Well, why don’t you! While I always appreciate the support of my art - especially right now being laid-off and all - what I am really trying to promote is sending happiness to someone who is having a rough time. “Why wouldn’t I just do this myself?” you might be asking yourself.
