56. Kidscreen Conversations 25 - Ed Galton, Cake and Alison Taylor, Aardman
On a recent trip to Kidscreen I had the opportunity to sit down and discuss distribution with Alison Taylor from Aardman and Ed Galton from Cake. With our industry undergoing so much change, I wanted to hear what it was like on the distribution side of the business, and how these two companies, with very different beginnings and operations were navigating the change.
I also added some thoughts on the conference in general and the vibe I got while on the trip.
Enjoy!
