EPISODE 180: PAYTON FINNEY

Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is PAYTON FINNEY! Payton is a character designer, 3D animator, and indie animator. He's an animator for Meat Canyon and recently released his pilot "Sludge Brothers" available on his youtube.

Along the way, VEE and SEAN chat with PAYTON about LEARNING ANIMATION WAS A JOB, GETTING WORK FROM NEWGROUNDS, LEARNING TO COLLABORATE, 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!
