Hi, I’m Mike Leip.
I’m building an entertainment studio with the goal of creating a beloved storyworld franchise.
We are entering a new era in Hollywood. Â
I believe that the next Harry Potter or Pokemon will come from creators like you and me.
This shift from “corporate Hollywood” to a new creator-led model, which I’m calling “Craft Entertainment”, marks a generational opportunity unlike anything we’ve seen before.
I highly recommend you take advantage of this moment!

Why Slow Living?
➤ As creators & entrepreneurs, there is always more work to do, so it’s easy to fall into the hustle-trap.
➤ While trying to grow my last company (called Panda Planner), I burnt out HARD, at great cost to my physical & mental health.
➤ I don’t want to make that mistake again, so I’m committed to slowing down.
➤ My goals are ambitious, but I’m not in a rush.
➤ I want to build something meaningful, but I’m learning to love every minute along the way.
