#A little side note. I now pronounce Cannes without the S. Hey, I'm a working class northern lad raised on Catchphrase and 'say what you see'. You should hear me pronounce baguette! Anyway, moving on...
Join us on an enchanting journey with Emmy-nominated animator and director Richard Bazley, as he shares the remarkable story of his path from the idyllic Devon countryside to the bustling world of animation in Los Angeles. Richard's dream, sparked by a Disney book from his mother, led him through uncharted waters, serendipitously landing his first industry role on "Who Framed Roger Rabbit." His experiences paint a vivid picture of resilience and creativity, offering valuable insights into the relentless pursuit of one's dreams.
In this episode, we also celebrate the magic of cinema. We reminisce about working with iconic actor Tom Conti and reflect on influential films that have shaped our love for the medium, such as "Star Wars," "Spartacus," and "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad." Richard shares how these cinematic marvels inspired his childhood creativity with Lego and clay, before diving into the emotional depth of films like "Crash" and "The Sixth Sense."
Let us know where we're going wrong....or, like, right...maybe.
