Paul was the director, editor, co-writer and animator on this series. They also received development funding from Telefilm and the CBC for “Cupids Café” a multi platform rom com series. They have since collaborated on several broadcast docs and multi platform projects.

For CineFocus Canada he edited several episodes and did the animated opening for the Green Heroes series airing on TVO.
