Q: Directing the Jewish kid’
s 
series Shaboom! was another 
transformative stage in your 
career. Tell us about that process.
JS: We were going from making 
independent YouTube animations 
to creating a legitimate kids’
 show. 
We had advisers from Pixar and 
Sesame Street, which was a huge 
ramp up right there.
I was hesitant about Shaboom! 
as an idea …but it ended up going 
well. I have friends who show me 
videos of their kids singing songs 
from it, which is cool.
Q: What was it like toward the 
end of your time at BimBam?
JS: Normally, with a company 
coming to a close, there’
s a de-
motivation, but that was not the 
feeling. It was a very much a race 
to the finish. Even though the 
company was sunsetting, all these 
projects we were working on were 
so exciting. The last week of the 
company we released seven of our 

pieces and they were seven of our 
best.
Six and a half years at a company 
is a long time and I stayed there for 
a big reason: I had a lot of creative 
control and it combined all the 
things that I enjoyed doing. Over 
the course of BimBam, we released 
450 pieces. It will live on and hope-
fully continue to inspire others to 
make bigger and better stuff and to 
create.
Q: What’
s next for you?
 
JS: I’
m excited for what’
s next. 
When I started, making things in 
the YouTube industry did not exist, 
and now it’
s becoming a bigger 
industry. I’
m going to continue 
that or keep going down the line of 
children’
s animation — how many 
people can say they directed a chil-
dren’
s series? ■
