The Winding Road To Laika: An Interview With Jenn Ely (Part 1) :: ArtCast #83

Update: 2015-01-13

Description

Like the design of the world of The BoxTrolls, Jenn Ely‘s life is full of quirky twists and turns.

Her wonderfully bizarre childhood involved multiple encounters with emus and alligators.

…and at an art school where students were jumping into giant cupcakes she had to find and fight for her identity as a commercial artist.

With stories like these, it’s no wonder she eventually got a job at Laika.
