50. Kidscreen Conversations 2024 - Rob Doherty | Sueann Rochester | Lucy Murphy
Welcome to our second annual Kidscreen Conversations episode. I headed to San Diego, not Miami this year for the first west coast Kidscreen. As always, it was a great event, although the sun decided to skip it this year!
Our guests this year are Rob Doherty, a consultant with great insight into the industry and founder of Festivus, an animation org that parallels the Creators Society in some ways in the UK, Sueann Rochester, Managing Director of Wild Child Animation in Scotland, and Lucy Murphy, director of kids content at Sky in the UK.
There are some great thoughts and insight here so I know you'll get something from these conversations. Please excuse the on-location audio, a little rougher than usual, along with my voice.
Enjoy!
