Description

Hi everybody, we have a special episode today, where we’re joined by the executive team at Tapas Media, one of the largest webcomic publishing platforms globally. Michael Son is the VP of Content and works closely on the studio side and turning webcomics into tv and film adaptations, and Isabell Castro is a creator-turned-community-director who focuses on making Tapas a great home for its creators.
You don’t want to miss this episode because we’ll be covering topics such as learning about Tapas’ origin story leading into becoming such a powerful platform it is today, discuss how it’s different from Webtoon and what you can expect as a creator when you work with Tapas, get Michael and Isabell’s opinions on the recent issues of creator burnout, learn about the behind-the-scenes working behind a webcomic becoming an original and getting cross-adapted into other formats, and finally what to expect from Tapas moving forward as it continues to invest in content and creators.
