Welcome to Creative Block! This week’s guest is JESSE MOYNIHAN. Jesse is an cartoonist, animator, story artist, and art director, whose work can be seen on Adventure Time, Midnight Gospel, and is the creator of the shorts Manly, Forming, Jesus 2, and Hungy Ghost.

In this episode, VEE and SEAN talk to JESSE about PITCHING JESUS 2, Finding money for projects, balancing the beauty of projects, 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!
