What Thingy Fans say....
"A Walter Mitty for the digital age in a comedy kaleidoscope of imagination."
Damien McFerran, Director. NLife Network
"A totally self-produced, visionary work by the ironical and multi-talented Daniel Hutchings. Freelance Giggle-oh is a richly structured comical mix of eccentric characters that winks at Monty Python."
Roberto Rup Paolini, Director, Carboluce
"I think this is the best entry point into Thingys as it’s the perfect way to understand what Hutchings is trying to achieve with his output while also giving you an insight as to why and how he comes up with these concepts. Balls to the wall absurd comedy."
Cadburyhedges, Lettterboxd Reviewer
"An experience where Daniel Hutchings has the opportunity to crawl into my head and lather my brain with annoyingly funny jokes, phenomenal structural ideas, and thought-provoking concepts."
T0mmabb0tt, Lettterboxd Reviewer
"A thingy thingy was had by thingy."
Marlie :D, Lettterboxd Reviewer
WARNING:
This Thingy features rapid editing similar to flashing lights.
