EPISODE 175: AMI GUILLÉN

Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is AMI GUILLÉN! Ami is a storyboard artist, supervisor, and indie creator, whose work can be seen on Villainous for Cartoon Network and most recently made an indie short called Billie and Basil!

Along the way, VEE and SEAN chat with AMI about CHALLENGES OF WORKING IN MEXICO, BEING POPULAR ON TUMBLR AS A TEENAGER, GETTING ON VILLAINOUS, and so much more!

While we talk, we doodle on a MAGMA, 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!
