Hey, my first post here on Mastodon! Allow me to introduce myself! I am a hobbyist LEGO stop motion animator and aspiring storyteller! I like good stories focused on original concept as well as great stories around already established franchises (Sonic, etc.).

I hope to gain some traction on this new platform, and some new attention and feedback on my work as a whole!

Did you know... we don't just work with films and filmmakers?

Journeys in Film started off more than 20 years ago creating educational guides for feature films.

Over time, we expanded in creating teaching materials for:
- Animated films (like Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet),
- Short films (like Golden Age Karate),
- Documentary series (like Genius, about Albert Einstein),
- Film + book combinations (like The Neighborhood Storyteller + Muzoon: A Syrian Refugee Speaks Out), and
- Educational games (like "Walden, a game" from USC Game Innovation Lab).

We are also looking at creating teaching resources for social impact podcasts in 2026!

Our name has stayed the same but we are all about modern cross-media education.

If you are creating social impact media that you would like to connect with teachers & students, we should talk!
