- ↑ Gillespie, Adam (July 17, 2022). A showreel of around 20 shots I worked on for Season 3 of LEGO Monkie Kid. I worked on over 100 shots by the end of production, so finding 20 to have in a showreel was kind of tough.I had a lot of talking head dialogue shots, and the few action shots I was assigned were pretty quick, they’re kind of blink and you’ll miss them moments. Boy I wish I could show you all the shots I worked on 😛.
