Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guests are LEE THOMSON AND SOMMER MONTENEGRO from SHORT SHORT FEST! Short Short Fest is a touring animation festival and community event organized by the Barnhouse Collective. Upcoming dates: AUGUST 2nd in Pennsylvania and AUGUST 9th in Michigan!

In this episode, VEE and SEAN talk to LEE and SOMMER about CREATING THE FEST, ANTHROCON, CURATING SUBMISSIONS, 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!
