Had fun designing animation and sound design for this great quote from John Cleese. Does it resonate for you?

If you or anyone you know need some work done with video editing and/or motion graphics, I’m available and interested.

Note to self: Opening up and letting your guard down can be tough! But the connections make it worth it.

Meditation! Visualization! They sound good on paper, but sometimes they can transport you to places you that make you 😡😩🤪

Here’s a new animated short I made. Got some help from the MidJourney AI app on the background images.

It’s been just over a year since Niki and I adopted Harley, our shepherd mix/lunatic.

She was afraid of loud noises so I created this 2 minute meditation for dogs who are afraid of thunder.  

Music on it is by the amazing Sascha Blank.

Harley listened to the meditation once and now she no longer fears anything! 

She's so confident that she now coaches other dogs on their thunder and fireworks fears. This meditation is also great for people who are afraid of thunderstorms or who enjoy meditation spoofs. 

Also, if you'd like to adopt a dog, we got Harley from PupStarz Rescue. We highly recommend them!

Sometimes I have difficulty saying what's on my mind, even to a therapist.

For Passover this year, I got to work with the wonderful people at JewBelong and Skitish Media on editing virtual seder. Here is a video with the whole seder as well as some comedy sketches we put together for promotions. Funny for all and any time of year. 

The show includes great people like Senator Cory Booker, Comedians Judy Gold, Sherrod Small, Eitan Levine, and many more!

I’m excited to announce that the third audio sketch comedy album by Micah Sherman and myself is now available!

“The Breakup” links sketches together to form an ongoing narrative, similar to a Monty Python film or Portlandia episode, and tells the story of Nikki and Tom. 

When a couples’ counseling couple fails to save Nikki and Tom’s marriage, Tom embarks on a failed spiritual journey that includes a string of reject therapists and a frightening meditation class. Nikki doesn’t have much more success, turning to NPR, her clueless co-workers, an US Weekly audiobook, and an influencer doctor who does little more than snap selfies and irritate others. Can anything save Nikki and Tom or are they doomed forever?

Featuring performances by:

Micah Sherman (HBO’S “High Maintenance”)

Will Miles (IFC’s “Sherman’s Showcase,” Comedy Central Presents) 

Giulia Rozzi (Conan, Chelsea Lately, Comedy Central’s “Lights Out with David Spade”)

Julia Jade Duffy (Geico, Samsung, Hugo Boss)

and me, Dan Hirshon

Music by: Sascha Blank

and Recording by Mike Kutchman 

 The album is available on: 

iTunes: https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-breakup/1537742194

Amazon - Spotify - Pandora

“Dan’s Demons” is an animated short film I made a couple years ago that I'm proud of and would love if you checked out. 

The short film is based on a true story and about all the negative self-talk that happens in life. But there's no need for negative self-talk because we're all more than enough as we are.

I love you!
