Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is THUROP VAN ORMAN! Thurop is a writer, showrunner, storyboard artist, and voice actor. He's the creator of the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack as well as the voice of Flapjack, produced and wrote for Adventure Time, and was a director on Angry Birds 2!
Along the way, VEE and SEAN chat with THUROP about PITCHING AND DEVELOPING FLAPJACK, SWITCHING ROLES FOR STABILITY, PRODUCING ON ADVENTURE TIME, WRITING, and so much more!
While we talk, we doodle on a JAMBOARD, 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!
