Welcome to CREATIVE BLOCK! This week's guest is SHANE CURRY! Shane is a songwriter, animator, timing supervisor, and animation timer for shows like She-Ra and American Dad, and at at time of the record was in the middle of kickstarting his own musical animated series: Chew Gum!
Along the way, we chat about the GETTING THEIR START ON A SMOKE BREAK, WE DO A LIL TIMING EXERCISE, NAVIGATING TIKTOK, and so much more! This conversation was done LIVE over Twitter Spaces.
While we talk, we doodle on a Google Jamboard, where we draw from prompts we got on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, YOUTUBE, THREADS, and PATREON. Subscribe to our channel to hear more stories of other animation professionals!
