“THANK YOU so much for creating The Happy Producers. I was recently invited to share my experience as a Producer in Mexico with soon-to-be Animation graduate students and shared your page and how amazing it is! There should be more content about it out there, so I'm grateful I found you guys.
I also wanted to share my recent congratulations from a client, we just wrapped up this project and I can say it was a stress-free project for all of us on the animation team. I've been trying to use the skills I learned at the Happy Producers. I feel this project finally aligned on both ends, the client being supportive and realistic on their calendar and scope and us not complaining about notes and having a stress-free environment and mindset. It's incredible how important the mindset is.
So, again, thank you for creating The Happy Producers. You are amazing!"

Do you believe budgets are only getting smaller, and YOU can do nothing about it?Â
Take charge and position yourself as an industry leader who can scope and bid on projects to help studios thrive in this crowded market regardless of fluctuations.
Tell Me More!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."
