I'm watching some of the JellyTelly logo animations that are coming in and I'm having a blast.  Some of these are really awesome.  (Especially you guys that built the logo out of Legos… and you know who you are…)  Not all of these will make the "network" of course, but some definitely will.  We're going to figure out the best way to show a few even before we launch, because these are fun.

In other news… still trying to wrap up the funding… but close enough now that we're starting to assemble the JellyTelly team.  Our first hire is a guy named Bill Ebel, an editor/director here in Chicago with lots of TV commercial experience.  (He was also involved in the production of Fireproof, the new movie from the brothers who made Facing the Giants.)  Bill helped direct and edit some of our test shorts last summer as a freelancer, and will now be directing and editing for JellyTelly full-time.  (His dad, Bob Ebel, is a famous Chicago director known for his commercials starring kids.  Google him.)

So… welcome, Bill!  We'll have more announcements next week…
