They don't get enough credit - Early Role Models with Eric Towner - E027

  • Summary

  • When I think of the words play and animation, two words come to mind: Robot Chicken. A show from the insanely talented folks at Stoopid Buddy Studios. Animator and Studio Founder, Eric Towner, shares his story of moving to LA, finding a stop motion animation job on Craigslist which ultimately led him to working on the second season of Robot Chicken, and from there, becoming one of the lead creatives at the studio. Sitting down with Eric was an incredible treat for me, I’ve always wanted to know more about their studio and the playful approach they have to creation. Then Eric shared with me his chosen point of inspiration: his mother. A creative soul who encouraged her children to engage with the world in a thoughtful and curious way, which has shown through Eric’s own work. These are a few of the things we talked about: - The limitations of filming stop motion back in the day - behind the scenes on early seasons Robot Chicken - The importance of early mentors in shaping your creative path & so much more! I’m really excited to hear your thoughts after listening to us ramble on! If you want to know more about the nounsfest we discuss in the conversation, check it out here!
