Hey Animation Fam,
In this episode of the podcast Bre and Way have a virtual sit down with Charles T Jones, Animatic Editor at Disney Television Animation. We talk Charles' journey into animation, jumping from live-action editing to animatic editing, and color editing, and how the life of a pirate can help jump start your career.
There also a lot of Bean & Milk talk....like maybe we need to make a Bean and Milk podcast?
Charles isn't online much...but you can catch him on Linkedin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlestjones/) or check out his credits on IMDB! (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2946121/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1)

You ever feel like.... a man stuck in a cat's body?
No? Well spoilers...that's what you get with Pixar's Soul!
Welcome back to Season 04 of the Black N Animated Podcast. As you may have guessed this episode Bre and Way talk about Pixar's Soul, and you might start feeling de ja vu as they discuss the trope of POC not staying human in animated films (a large portion of them being Disney). They also chat about the Clubhouse app, Spies in Disguise, and more!
Get into the zone as they dive into this movie.

HEY ANIMATION FAMILY
Black N Animated has been doing a bit of juggling behind the scenes and because we are having trouble finding the time to sit and record a new BW episode, we thought we'd revisit one of our topics from Season 1 talking about the Censored Eleven! Check out the info below.
