Hubert Lapointe
Owner, Director and Producer
Bon Jam Animation
“ I had the privilege of working with LP through his mentorship program over the last couple of months. As an up-and-coming producer seeking to improve my bidding and budgeting processes, I truly cannot recommend his expertise highly enough.
Coming from the creative side of production myself, it was especially rewarding to gain insights from someone who shares a similar mindset and vision. LP provided not only thoughtful and precise answers to my questions but also a systematic and heartfelt approach to tackling the challenges we so often face in production.
LP brings not just expertise, experience, and a network of amazing people to connect you with, but also a solid and empowering mindset that equips you to approach producing with confidence and clarity, leaving you truly Happy Producing.”

Reinaldo A Mendoza
Owner and Creative Director
Biota Studios
“ I was at a crossroads with Biota. My studio has over 15 years of experience in advertising and corporate animation, but we aspire to create cartoons. I knew what I wanted, with little to no clue how to get to it.
Seeking guidance, I discovered The Happy Producers, with its made-to-Biota mission and vision.
And then I met LP. Working with him is delightful. Within a few weeks, I’ve gained perspective, direction, the tools, and confidence to aim higher. I’ll always be grateful for that! "

“ Thrilled to share that I’ve completed “Bidding Winning Animation Projects” with consultation from Louis-Philippe Vermette, aka “LP” at The Happy Producers! 🎉This course has been truly transformative, equipping me with essential skills in project estimation and bidding, and fostering a more forward-thinking, solution-oriented mindset. A huge thank you to LP for the exceptional and personalized guidance. His ability to tailor the content to my specific needs made the learning experience incredibly relevant and impactful.
As a direct result of this course, I’m now leveraging past project data to inform my bids, which has significantly boosted my confidence and effectiveness not only in the bidding process but also in my role as an Animation Producer.
I wholeheartedly recommend “Bidding Winning Animation Projects” to anyone looking to level up their skills in animation project acquisition."
Call me LP!
My name is Louis-Philippe Vermette. I am an Animation Executive Producer with 25 years of experience working on films, television and game cinematics.
My journey in the industry may have started as a Storyboard artist, but before I knew it, I became a project manager, creative producer, and eventually Executive Producer in charge of Business Development at a reputable Montreal studio. In less than 24 months, I brought in over 20 million dollars in business while also securing over a quarter of a million dollars in revenues for myself.
I wasn't set up for success: I come from a remote town in the North of Quebec and didn't learn to speak English until my twenties, so if I could do it, you can too!
I've had the chance to work on some of the coolest IPs in the world, like Assassin's Creed and Mortal Combat, and get awarded projects from clients like Netflix and Disney. I am also the Canadian Co-Producer of the feature film 10 Lives by legendary director Chris Jenkins, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews and is currently taking audiences by storm.
Along the way, I refined my business development strategy and approach to bidding, budgeting, and client relationships.
I teach animation professionals worldwide a strategy to help them attract more business with a solid cost structure despite industry ups and downs.
I am excited to be launching this Animation Business Development Consulting Program.

In 4 months, you could access the knowledge and confidence you need to scale your business ⎯ just like there cool folks:

Romney T. Marino
Independent Animation Producer
"You helped me put years of work in the trenches of animation production into perspective. Scope, complexity, quality, and working at a reasonable pace for the team and all involved… It enabled me to sound like a competent and informed independent producer."

Marcio Shima
Business Developer of Hype Animation
"I meet LP 3 years ago. He was actually my client, overseeing our animation services for a major streamer feature film. Looking back, I see that some of the values he is teaching now [ ], were pretty much real at that time. We were all equals and that enabled us to better solve our problems.
It ain’t easy to be a producer and business developer, and even though I had several bids sent over my career, I still get butterflies for every new one. LP now gives us the guidance to take better control of our business and removing the scary parts by building solid scopes, positioning ourselves as the experts, being objective, data centric and preserving our team."

CARLOS GAXIOLA
CEO and Founder of Demente Animation
"Your course has been incredibly helpful in understanding how international bidding works. I have been able to consider some expenses that I had previously overlooked, and this has been crucial for my Studio. Additionally, I can better distinguish good-fit projects for my business, and I have improved my communication skills with potential clients. I have learned that just because one project isn't a good fit doesn't mean the next one won't be.
Thank you for your valuable insights and guidance."
I’ve used these skills to attract and close major projects like 10 Lives and The Last Whale Singer;

Chris Jenkins
Writer and Director
10 Lives
“Louis Phillippe did more than just contribute—he was the cornerstone of common sense and a wonderful creative collaborator. It was his calm appreciation for the creative direction that made this movie possible.”

Reza Memari
Writer and Director
The Last Whale Singer
“Thank you for being such good shepherds of Vincent and his friends. The footage is speaking volumes of how much love has been and is still going into our project.”
