Alex Keown

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with animator, filmmaker, and artist, Alex Keown. From playing with toys and making films with friends to film school, Alex discovered his love of animation and never looked back. He describes his style as “cute and whimsical, but kind of creepy at the same time”. In this episode we talk about collaboration, the impact the pandemic had on his creative pursuits, and his partner, the amazing Darcie Blake (the star of Creative Guts episode 76). Hear more about the Rock Water Film Festival including how films are selected and why Alex loves to see local filmmakers submit to the Festival!
