βCrystal Lakeβ filmed at two dozen locations in at least 16 communities in North and Central Jersey.
Why was a New Jersey film guy at the Lightbox Expo in Pasadena?

What could it mean for NJ?
π¨ Talent: gifted NJ artists building animation careers
β¨π₯οΈ Infrastructure: studios like Netflix Fort Monmouth
β¨π€ Opportunity: room for animation, live action & hybrid work
