After a brief hiatus, Boiled Over is back with an incredibly fun interview featuring Raman Djafari! Raman and I sat down last October, and while I had to put the podcast on hold due to medical shenanigans and work, I've been incredibly excited to share this episode with you all!
I truly cannot begin to express what a joy it was sitting down to edit the episode after all of this time and revisit the topics we discussed-- from finding your voice as an artist to exploring new mediums and so much more. It feels so good to finally be back with a new episode, and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did getting to speak with Raman!

This week I’m sitting down with one of my all-time favorite animators: Elenor Kopka. I’ve been a huge fan of Elenor’s work for years and years, so it was an absolute joy getting to finally speak with her about her process and take a peak behind the scenes into how she crafts her grainy and gorgeous worlds. We had a lot to talk about, so strap in and welcome back! :-)

This week's interview is with someone who truly knows how to embody the natural playfulness in the medium of animation: Magda Kreps! I've been a fan of Magda's work for awhile now, and am particularly interested in her character animations and sense of the cartoon body. In this episode, we talk about her sense of character proportions and what it means to break away from traditional anatomy, the struggles of working digitally vs. physically, and so much more. I hope you enjoy listening to our conversation as much as I did getting to speak with Magda, and I definitely recommend checking out her work (@magda_kreps on Instagram) before listening!

Today’s interview is with one of my all time favorite animators: Weronika Marianna. Weronika’s animated worlds are filled with beautiful colors and absolutely incredible painterly textures—I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with her work on Instagram (@weronikamarianna) if you haven’t already before listening. I couldn’t be more excited to share our conversation with you today, and hope you enjoy listening as much as I did getting to speak with her!

To kick off season 2, I had such a lovely chat with Yuval Haker: a multidisciplinary animator with a wealth of stories to share about his journey in discovering his artistic voice, finding one's footing in freelance, and so much more. I'm so excited to be back in the swing of things, and couldn't be happier to finally be sharing this episode with you. Find more of Yuval's work on Instagram as @yuvaroo!
As a side note, you can expect Boiled Over to regularly appear in your feed every other Monday for the foreseeable future. Exciting things ahead!

Wow! It's been a minute since we've seen each other last. Welcome back to Boiled Over, where this week, we're sitting down with one of our favorite experimental animators: Ted Wiggin! Ted has made a handful of films that we feel challenge what animation is and can be in its traditional sense. In addition to producing animated films, Ted works to build unique programs that serve as the tools for creating these films. He truly has an incredible workflow that we couldn't be more excited to share with you in this episode!
As a side note, there has been a bit of restructuring to the format of the podcast to keep it as sustainable as possible. We would love to avoid having another year-long gap between interviews, so listen to the intro of this episode to gain some more insight on how Boiled Over is changing and evolving to bring you more of the content that we've missed delivering to you all so, so much! We hope you enjoy this last episode of Season One and continue with the podcast through these changes on its ever-growing journey forward :-)

This week, we got the incredible fortune of getting to sit down with animator, illustrator, and cartoonist Roman Muradov! We spoke with Roman about his recent adventures into the world of 3D animation and Blender and what it's been like learning such a new medium coming from a very different background having done hand drawn still images. Discussing his experiments with digital animation had us on the edges of our seats, and we couldn't be more excited to share our conversation with you!
