005 - Mee Huh - Creator of Ruff and Buff

Meet Mee! Mee talks about drawing inspiration from daily life such as her buff dog. She discusses applying to LCAD, being rejected, then flying from Iowa to California to find out why. An experience that pushed her to improve her drawing skills, skills that helped her overcome social anxiety and even allowed her to start using public transportation. Hear about her perfect timing of attending LCAD the one semester they had a stop motion professor from Open the Portal, then turned that opportunity into an internship at Open the Portal. She even learned to animate for her thesis while actually working on her thesis. So come meet Mee and find out why if you’re her roommate you will end up working for her somehow. Spoiler alert: Mee loves killing her puppets but it’s still adorable.
