In this video released on YouTube, I discussed the motivations and inspirations that created the film, as well as the lessons I learned through creating it. I showed some pre-production materials, including the boards and rough animatic of the first draft of LIKE DEAD SKIN.

I was initially hoping to make a longer, more in-depth video before my senior year of college began, but by the end of the summer I decided to compile what I had and release it. Admittedly, I underestimated video production, but one of the things I ended up learning through LIKE DEAD SKIN was that I really valued the time I could spend with my family. Whenever I had to choose between spending time with my family and spending time on this video, I chose the former.
