If you work in the entertainment industry, it’s easy to get lost in the grind of the business – from general meetings  and constant pitching to marketing and business considerations – so it’s refreshing to take a step back and appreciate the pure magic of the art form.  David Anderson’s video is just perfect:

I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to view this short montage. I casually uploaded it for a friend to see and, to my surprise, it’s been viewed by many others!
