IPF-148, Animation Director and Illustrator, Fernanda Frick (part 1)

Welcome to the Ink and Paint Folk podcast- a look at animation through the women and non-binary folk who make it!

Hosted by Cassie Soliday

 

Today’s guest is animation director and illustrator, Fernanda Frick!

 

Fernanda is the creator of the short film, “Here’s the Plan”, the graphic novel, “Trazos”, with many more stories in development. In this episode, she shares with us how she finds motivation to push through big projects, how she learned how to write and develop a tv series with no prior knowledge of how to do it, why it’s good to have multiple ideas in our back pocket, and how every pitch is practice for the next.
