Dead Sound

DinoCon 2025 was an utterly fantastic experience. I expected it to be fun, but it totally surpassed my highest expectations.
Because I spend so much time working all on my own it's easy to forget just how many people love my films. In fact, it's very easy for me to forget that I have an audience at all, let alone a large and passionate one. I had never met a fan of my work before this event and it was genuinely life changing getting to meet literally hundreds of you, individually, over the course of two days.
That standing ovation at the end of my presentation was the highlight of my whole art career.

Thank you all so much! ^_^

Your talk at dino con was amazing. It was so cool seeing how dinosauria was made and how the episodes are designed and animated!

I truly wish I could've gone, and would have loved to hear you talk, but I've absolutely loved watching your films for a few years now. Your passion is evident in everything you make, and I can't wait to see more

It was so inspiring hearing you talk about your upbringing and to hear your process and passion for your work in person, you were the whole reason I decided to go on the Sunday and I’m so pleased I did, that standing ovation was well and truly deserved and your turnout was massive. The sneak peak for the ‘horror’ ep was also incredible! ☺️

Well deserved man! Sorry I couldn't make it to the talk, as I was manning a table at the vendor hall, but your work is nothing short of spectacular, and from what I've heard, the presentation was top-notch! Your work and drive deserves all of the admiration you inspire.

It was great to meet you and hopefully will be the first of many interactions, both in person and at future conventions of both animation and Dinosaurs 😁🦖

That sounds incredible! I’m glad you had such a positive experience! (This is completely a request and you never have to do it because I understand you could already be working on another short film or project but I think a QnA would be cool :D )

Hi David, you may never see this but I want to say it anyways. I’m a huge fan of your work and I have genuinely learned so much from your videos. I learned so much about visual storytelling, character design, and world building. The love and creativity dripping from every project you do is so inspiring. I recently got into my dream art college and I’m studying animation now on a great scholarship. And I wanted to thank you, without your passion and work, I don’t think I would have had the courage to go for it. Thank you so so much David, for all you do!
