Content Untapped

25-07-2023 • 13 mins

In 1994 John Lassiter of Pixar Animations was up against a daunting task: creating a character to rival Disney's Simba and Alladin.

And so he created...Lunar Larry?

This episode dives into a little-known story about one of the most beloved animated characters of all time and shows us why bad ideas are a vital part of the creative process.

Join Ivan as he discusses the journey many artists go through, from disastrous train wrecks to creative masterpieces, teaching you to embrace your bad ideas and understand that they can often pave the way to impactful content.

Ditch the stress of immediate perfection and dare to let your ideas run free. Embrace the power of collaboration and the beauty of fresh perspective. We even share a special exercise to help you get all your ideas - good, bad, and downright terrible - out of your head and onto paper.
