Please watch and share my new pilot called Deathahedron!
It took me a year to make it, it's made almost entirely with little models that I made and shot in my backyard. I had to make the costumes, hand animate the effects, it's a labor of love!

I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

Doing a rewrite on a script today (and for the last week+) and it’s been really - REALLY - fun. Creative fulfillment was a struggle for decades, TBH, because there’s a HUUUUGE difference between creating someone else’s thing for a company vs creating something you want to exist.

Clay Kaytis sitting at a wood table that is set up for podcasting with two microphones, a monitor, and dark curtains in the background.
Finally got a chance to set up my new podcast studio for the first time. About halfway to where I can start testing.

When A Few Good Men came out, I read how Reiner questioned every line and word as he developed the script with Aaron Sorkin - a commitment to truth and the heart of storytelling that I have thought of on every project I’ve done. Reiner was is a giant. He will be missed and forever appreciated. 5/5

When we made The Angry Birds Movie, I was so stoked that our editor Kent Beyda’s first film was Spinal Tap. I’ve taken a picture at the “I’ll have what she’s having” table in Katz’s Deli in NYC, and just last week I looked at When Harry Met Sally in preparation for a meeting about a rom-com. 4/5

I saw The Princess Bride in theaters, then countless times on VHS. The number of times my dad quoted “Would anybody like a Peanut?” was inconceivable. I’ve pitched movies with “It’s a combination of Princess Bride and…” When I want my wife to know I would do anything for her, it’s “As you wish.” 3/5

I can still viscerally remember wincing along with a theater full of strangers as Kathy Bates took a sledgehammer to James Caan’s ankle. 2/5

I feel I can somehow, for myself, soften the blow of Rob Reiner’s death by reflecting on how impactful his work was in my life, specifically through the films he directed throughout my Jr. High and High School years. Stand By Me showed me what real friendship could be. 1/5

I wonder if The Macy’s Parade will ever bring the Angry Birds Red balloon out of retirement. The photo on the left was the last time I saw him in 2018, when we were designing the balloons for The Christmas Chronicles. @f3rgal.bsky.social

What a nice reminder. Thanks @david-william4.bsky.social! & here I was going through the day with zero awareness that today’s the anniversary of A Christmas Story Christmas! To commemorate, here’s a photo from right before filming the first shot and another of the last shot before we wrapped.
