Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is Sapphire Sandalo! Sapphire is an animator, podcaster, and recurring Paranormal Expert on the Trvl Channel. She worked on animated show Mr. Pickles, created Something Scary and School Spirit on Snarled, and is the creator/host of the podcast Stories with Sapphire!

Along the way, we chat about VISION BOARDS, SAPPHIRE REIGNITING HER PASSION FOR PARANOMAL/SUPERNATURAL STUFF, SHARE SOME SPOOKY EXPERIENCES, and so much more!

While we talk, we doodle on a Google jamboard, where we draw from prompts we got on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, YOUTUBE, and PATREON. Subscribe to our channel to hear more stories of other animation professionals!
