Welcome to the Ink and Paint Folk podcast where we celebrate women and queer creatives working in the animation industry.
Hosted by Cassie Soliday
Today’s guest is creator and screenwriter, Pamela Ribon!
Today, I’m joined by an incredible screenwriter and creator, Pamela Ribon. She’s the creator of the Oscar nominated short film, My Year of Dicks, and wrote on the most recent Disney animated feature, Moana 2! You may also know her work from that other Moana movie- Moana 1, Wreck It Ralph, also Nimona on Netflix which I absolutely loved, her comics, Slam and My Boyfriend is a Bear. And more. She’s so prolific!
We chat about breaking into writing for TV, then features, and how all the other storytelling opportunities fell into place. The back and forth collaboration between writers and artists. How her background in acting continues to be a gift in her creative process. How “having it all” and creating a body of work takes time.
Head’s up, we recorded this back in August 2024, during the Paris Olympics. That makes it sounds like we were at the Olympics and recorded this. We weren’t, but that would’ve been amazing.
