What Thingy Fans say....
"A Walter Mitty for the digital age in a
comedy kaleidoscope of imagination."
Damien McFerran
Director
NLife Network
"Hutchings creates feature-length comedies somewhere
between underground cinema and performance art
somewhere near you. Take the journey to the centre
of hilarity with the daydreamer next door in any of
Daniel Hutchings' Thingys and you'll be guaranteed to
have an experience beyond description!"
TD Velasquez
Film Journalist
"This is what indie film is all about, completely
personal stories that only could have come
from the mind of their creators."
The Don't Tell Show
YouTube Channel
"We need people like Daniel, who are being creative,
doing it at this scale because it's important that we
constantly change the boundaries of our own industry."
Andy Burke
Actor & Writer
