Welcome Lindsey Olivares to chat about specificity in design, the art of caricature, clarity in comedy, and production and character designing for The Mitchells vs. The Machines.
More about The Mitchells vs the Machines
From the humans who brought you the Academy Award®-winning Spider Man: Into the Spider-Verse and The LEGO Movie comes The Mitchells vs.  The Machines, an animated action-comedy about an ordinary family who find  themselves in the middle of their biggest family challenge yet…saving the  world from the robot apocalypse. No big deal, right? It all starts when creative  outsider Katie Mitchell is accepted into the film school of her dreams and is  eager to leave home and find “her people,” when her nature-loving dad insists  on having the whole family drive her to school and bond during one last totally not-awkward-or-forced road trip. But just when the trip can’t get any worse, the  family suddenly finds itself in the middle of the robot uprising! Everything from  smart phones, to roombas, to evil Furbys are employed to capture every human  on the planet. Now it’s up to the Mitchells, including upbeat mom Linda, quirky  little brother Aaron, their squishy pug, Monchi, and two friendly, but simple minded robots to save humanity.
