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!

Season Break - Pitching ‘The Sentinel’ with Creators Adam Floeck & Nate Swinehart (Pt 3) :: DIYA #11
Welcome to The DIY Animation Show’s first ever Season Break! We kick it all off today with a catch-up with Adam Floeck and Nate Swinehart!
Since their original interview with us (recorded in 2016), Adam & Nate have been hard at work pitching 'The Sentinel' to different networks in the hopes of getting it greenlit for a series.
What followed, and what we’ll hear about today, is a series of pitching adventures, techniques, and personal insights they gained about the Sentinel, themselves, their friendship and their creative endeavours.
Gather round as Adam & Nate share...
- The latest thrilling chapter in The Sentinel’s tale: The Pitching Quest
- Lessons learned directly from within the Pitching Room
- Gaining perspective on your goals and your own sense of timing
- The importance of relationships with companies, agents, and your creative partner
- And some exciting new things hovering on the horizon for Adam & Nate’s studio, Boketto
So grab a drink, put a little umbrella in it, and join us for some pitching adventures!
Over our 3-month season-break, we'll be supplementing interviews with a new selection of monthly goodies!
We’ll be back with Season 3 and a new batch of interviews this October.
In the meantime, keep your eyes on Facebook and Twitter for updates and join us on the blog for new content.
