Creator of Fan-Made TINTIN Credits gets a Job working for Spielberg

Movie Steven Spielberg Tintin The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorabout 5 years agoby Joey Paur

Last week we shared a great fan-made opening title sequence to Steven Spielberg's upcoming new film The Adventures of Tintin. Spielberg saw the opening animated sequence, loved it and actually ended up hiring it's creator James Curran. That's one lucky guy, but that's what happens when you put yourself out there like he did.

The news came from Titin screenwriter Edgar Wright who said via twitter,

So @slimjimstudios does unofficial #Tintin titles, Spielberg sees 'em, give him invite to prem & job on next movie..."

How awesome is that! This is the type of thing that should inspire you to put yourself out there, if you have a talent share it with the world on the internet, because you never know who it will end up in front of. If it impresses people, you may find yourself with a new job doing what you love to do.

For those of you who missed it, check out the video below!
