Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is EMILY BRUNDIGE! Emily is the creator of Goldie on Apple+ and the Shut Up! Cartoon series Pubertina, developed Harvey Girls Forever! for Netflix/Dreamworks, and recently released a book, A Guide to Developing an Animated Show!
In this episode, SEAN and VEE talk to EMILY about CREATING PUBERTINA, HER BOOK, and UNDERSTANDING YOURSELF AS A CREATOR, so much more.
While we talk, we doodle on a MAGMA, where we draw from prompts we got on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, YOUTUBE, THREADS, NEWGROUNDS, and PATREON. Subscribe to our channel to hear more stories of other animation professionals!
