Do you know someone who’s been a victim of racism? Maybe someone who’s experienced discrimination because of the color of their skin? Here at Alicyn’s Wonderland, we want to show our support to the BIPOC community. Just like this week’s guest. Monica Lago-Kaytis, CEO and producer at Frogbot Films, talks to us about her new venture as co-founder of Rise Up Animation. Rise Up Animation is all about giving the members of the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) community an equal chance at a career in animation. This is especially relevant now, as the pandemic has caused even more hate against our brothers and sisters of color. Monica, together with 3 other co-founders, established this nonprofit organization to offer free advice, portfolio and resume feedback, and even mentorship. As someone who has mentored a few talents, I think this episode hit really close to home. Show your support and listen in! Show Notes:[4:06] The conception of Rise Up Animation.[15:36] Rise UP Animation’s short-term and long-term goals.[22:11] Monica as Frogbot Films’ CEO and producer.[24:53] What is the positive change that Rise Up Animation wants to achieve?[40:28] Rise Up Animation success stories.[38:44] Q&A with Monica during the live IgTV.Follow along with Alicyn's Wonderland on:Instagram: @AlicynTikTok: @alicynpackardYouTube: Alicyn PackardTwitter: @Alicyn
