This is a normal post jesus you've got some balls
well done for finding people with more money than they know what to do with to fund your fun and games.
If any of them have spare cash there are about a hundred other people on this site who would like the same treatment, but who currently have to go out and do shitty jobs to fund their "hobby"

This is a normal post Nice one
This is my day job right now, 7 days a week- you know, 3 years of Film School, 3 years as a f---ing tea boy for the big boys in Soho, it's kinda the career path I've beeen headed down for a while now and I'd really appreciate the chance to get the funds and do what I do best.

This is a normal post yeah, I get what you're saying
most of us here spent 3 years at film school, art college, etc etc then time doing the shitty end jobs at what we wanted to be doing.

But most of us didn't think the world owed us, because it doesn't.
If you can get funding good for you. But I think like most people you should be more prepared to spend 8 hours on the till at Morrisons so you can then spend 8 hours working in the evening on your masterpiece - like normal people.

Also, I appreciate some big names have said they like your stuff, but to be brutally honest, it's not that good yet. Your editing and timing is great but your character animation is very poor, no walking or fluid arm moves and there's a lack of understanding of silhouettes and so forth.
Stick with it and I'm sure you'll get great, but perhaps you need to talk to some more people who have walked this path first.

This is a normal post I get what your saying
But you just wanted to have a pop at me!
I do all this sh-t in a studio apartment with desk lamps ect, it's a little difficult to achieve the stuff you're talking about. And this summer I worked everyday in cafe frying chicken & prepping burgers 7 days a week for 4 months to be able to focus on doing what am doing right now, is that good enough for you? Reckon my balls grew a bit larger eating all them burgers all summer. Anyway, really f-cking p-ssed me off what you said, real snarky sh-t that was. Want my full resume? I got nursing homes, lifeguard to landscape gardening...

This is a normal post you read what I put wrong
I said you had some balls and well done for getting as far as you had, which is pretty much a compliment.
But what you posted comes across as "Give me money I'm brilliant and deserve it"
Take the constructive criticism as what it is, note unlike some responses people post I didn't simply call you a rude word and not explain why.

This is a normal post nah
didn't I express enough that you get stuff for your money? Yeah you can argue me on the content value, zzz, but your getting stuff for your money. Am only trying to make a living like everyone else. And as for what your saying... man up. There's no way am gonna take a 'get a job like everyone else' as a compliment when am slogging away like a nob head. Here's a couple of links to more recent work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSGMlq-Kaw4 & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6xcNCdGb-Q wanna support what am doing then, brilliant I will very much appriciate it. Honestly I will, just not the Bill Hicks comments. Hell, why not give the funding scheme a try for yourself? Never know, might work out for you

I've remade the exorcist, you like that one don't you? Surely it's worth £3?

This is a normal post I'm IN The Exorcist, man.
And I'll keep my money, if it's all the same to you.

This is a normal post The reason I'm not interested is pretty simple - you can't draw for shit.
If I thought I was getting the better part of the deal, you'd have had my money by now.

This is a normal post Ha-ha! Not bad, at all.
I wish you well in your future endeavours, Lee.
And I'm sure if it's meant to be, then it will.
