Magic Drawer Workshop from Petaluma, CA says Hello!
 

Hi, we are a private (we don't take outside work) eco-friendly studio operating out of Petaluma, CA (Sonoma County USA). What we do is make all of our sets/props/puppets out of 95% reused/recycled materials, write eco-stories, film them, and then create DVDs. My background is in the fine/antique arts and I started creating for film about 10 years ago.
We have some partners in the UK & Spain and here in America (Petaluma) we have been fortunate to work with some former Henson puppeteers which has upped our game considerably. We just released our first DVD and are working on the second. We have kept a production blog Magic Drawer Workshop for the past year and a half. Our goal is to create content that encourages young children to be aware of green alternatives as they grow.

These forums look like a great place to up the tech side of what I am doing. I just wish that I had found out about the DVI forums last year when I had to learn Final Cut, etc!
