Audible5shakeem winnUnited States3 years ago - Here's Hoping for Many More Episodes to Come!
Great banter between two witty co-hosts, keeping listeners informed of the latest developments in worldwide (not just mainstream Hollywood) animated film. Providing near-constant, on-the-ground coverage of many of the biggest European animation festivals, they consistently manage to score interviews with established industry giants (Glen Keane, Bill Plympton, Joanna Quinn, etc.) as well as up-and-coming indie talent. In addition, listeners are treated to their day-to-day adventures, and mishaps,... more

United Kingdom11 years ago - Love it so much i wish it was weekly!!
This is an amazing podcast!! Steve Henderson and Ben Mitchell are two well informed animators as well as interviewers. I love what they have to say because it is not just about British animation or the animation that they are producing. They are very knowledgable about animation, animation tecniques, and have a great chemistry with their interviewees. They can banter with eachother and head off on tangents but it is never a dull moment with these two. I just wish it was a weekly podcast as ... more
