Welcome to Cartoon Cosmonauts - a podcast all about animated short films and their creators. I'm your host Joseph Orr and each week features a new guest giving us the lowdown on their approach to making animation.   

This week's guest is James Smith better known as Splittershot on YouTube. On this episode I will be chatting to James about 2 of his short films "Lego Deadpool vs Captain America" and "Monster Encounters". I encourage everyone to watch this short first and then follow along as we take a deep dive into how it was made.   

If you'd like to get in touch with James you can find him on Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Tiktok as Splittershot. If you'd like to get in touch with me, for feedback, questions or even to come on the show to discuss your own short, you can find me online as Speak Broccoli on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
