Skribbly Kids - Oh-So-Cute Character Design
Senioritis: Name & location please.
Skribbly Kids: Joanna Goldman, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Senioritis: Joanna, can you give us a brief bio please?
Skribbly Kids: Visual FX artist by day, cartoony craftswoman by night! I have been drawing ever since I was a little kid. My style is a result of a fine arts, animation, and film background.
Senioritis: Very cool!
Senioritis: Joanna, you mention that your style is influenced by your background in fine arts, animation, and film. How would you describe Skibbly Kids' style in a few words?
Skribbly Kids: Cute Cartoons with Big Eyes.
Senioritis: Do you have a favorite color?
Skribbly Kids: Blue.
Senioritis: Are you a righty or a lefty?
Skribbly Kids: Righty.
Senioritis: Do you have a favorite quote?
Skribbly Kids: Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film. – Steven Wright
Senioritis: Hahahaha ,that's phenomenal. We've never heard that one before.
Senioritis: If you could have lunch with someone famous, past or present, who would it be?
Skribbly Kids: I would love to have lunch with Spike Jonze. I feel like every movie he works on is so different, yet so genius! I’d love to pick his brain and find out a little bit about his process of working.
Senioritis: Very cool, we haven't seen many of Jonze's movies but we can't wait to see Where The Wild Things Are.
Senioritis: Joanna, do you have a favorite cartoon?
Skribbly Kids: Hard question! When I was a kid it would have to be Duck Tales. Now I think it would be Triplets of Belleville.
Senioritis: Life is like a hurricaaaaane here in Duckburg ;) Duck Tales was an excellent cartoon, Triplets of Belleville is very good too!
Senioritis: Where do you see yourself and your business in 10 years?
Skribbly Kids: I’d like to still be creating different characters to put on greeting cards. I’d like these cards to be in stores all across the world. Ultimately I would love to live off of creating characters.
Senioritis: That sounds great to us. Based on the items in your shop and your creative style we think that goal is very attainable.
Senioritis: Where can we find you on the web?
Skribbly Kids:
My blog with new (and sometimes experimental) doodles: http://www.skribblyblog.blogspot.com/
My personal site: http://www.joannagoldman.com/ where you can find my day job show reel.
Senioritis: Wow, your show reel is one of the coolest things we have seen in a long time. Awesome stuff and we absolutely love the Bitter Sweet song.
Senioritis: Before we let you go, would you like to give any shoutouts?
Skribbly Kids: I’d like to thank my mom for putting a pencil in my hand at a very young age! Here’s her artwork: www.azergo.com/
Senioritis: Now we see where you get some of your talent from :) Your mom's work is great, we especially like her landscapes and her watercolor painting of you surfing!
