Director Statement

I had a weird idea, what if someone became a friend to an inanimate object? I looked around, and I thought of a funny name, Hammy. Now he's in a project that many people I've seen laugh at?
One day, Hammy will be known around the world, and I'll be a forgotten hazbin. Oh well... Great project to work on! It was made for an editing class, and I think that's Hammy's strongest quality. It's obviously not how durable he is.
