Kick back and listen in to this knock-out episode with Kimmie King! First we dive into her latest job as a retake animator for Rick & Morty, and all the duties and expectations that come with it. Learn about the indie animation scene through Kimmie's experience working on Battu and Helluva Boss. Then jump into the world of Spongebob 360 through the eyes of an animator. Hear her story on how she became the director for the opening of Ziwe's late night show on Black Entertainment Television (BET). Kimmie jumps back just a few years to her graduation during the pandemic, how she jump-started her career during lockdown, what sparked her love of kickboxing, and the struggles of her final film. To top it all-off, Kimmie is a Toonboom Ambassador! Crazy? Well Kimmie tells us how that might not be as an unreachable title as one might think.
