Welcome back to Part 02 of our conversation with DeadEndia creator and showrunner - and pitch extraordinaire - Hamish Steele!
Last episode we talked about how the original DeadEndia story drew from some of the real life experiences Hamish and his friends had, and how our own real life experiences are, and can be, reflected in the shows that we watch and create.
Now in Part 02, we’re picking up again as Hamish considers what’s most important about DeadEndia that he really wanted to protect as it became an animated show, as well as:
- Plenty of pitching advice gleaned from Hamish’s years of experience (including a link on diyanimation.show to his pitching webinar, 'How to Pitch Perfectly'!)
- How collaboration can bolster representation and amplify others’ voices
- Hamish’s wonderfully straight-forward answer to ‘guilty’ pleasures
- And his dearest wish for DeadEndia, and how you can help make it happen!

"In the Name of the Moon!" - Interview with Kate Sullivan, Moon Animate Make-Up (Pt 2) :: DIYA #21
We're back with part 2 of our interview with Kate Sullivan, the magical Guardian behind the wheel of fan-animations, Moon Animate Make-Up 1 and 2!
In part 1, Kate touched on what her re-animated project process was like, the state of 2D animation, what makes a great demo reel, and what hustling really looks like.
Now, here in part 2, Kate dives into more detail about:
- her project management process for Moon Animate Make-Up 2, from breaking down the episode, to dishing out the work, to putting it all together
- discusses the importance of fan creations and making the transition from fan to professional
- we also go over the importance of timing for your animated project, career, and any aspect of life
- and, of course, the one most vital thing she thinks a DIY animator needs!
We should mention Kate's audio gets iffy in places - her WiFi and Skype were having a tough time, BUT we so enjoyed Kate’s active energy and love of Sailor Moon, and her optimism and excitement for what the animation community will create next shines through.
In the name of Moon Animate, let’s start part 2!
