Kate Isobel Scott On Plasticine Illustration And Animation
Kate Isobel Scott is an incredibly talented artist who's chosen visual language, through mediums such as plasticine, embroidery and animation, is visceral, playful, slightly nostalgic, and completely gorgeous. Kate has a really unique ability to unapologetically move seamlessly between mediums and disciplines, bringing strengths and experiences from one creative category into another. During our chat we talk about giving ample space to explore, experiment and find your creative voice. What I loved most about our conversation is how Kate gives herself and us permission to make mistakes, try new things, and not only accept our unique quirks and challenges but actually lean into these, double down on them, feature them and use them as a superpower. Ultimately we learn one of the greatest lessons of all, that fitting in is highly overrated. I hope you enjoy this episode where you can listen to us try and do math, complain about modern kids shows, and find out why Kate spends her free time learning how to make baskets. Introducing Kate Isobel Scott On Plasticine Illustration And Animation Kate Isobel Scott Kateisobelscott.com @kateisobelscott Links jordy.studio Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon @rogierwieland Everyone Agency The Trap Door Fireman Sam Quotes “If you really want to make something you'll make it work and then you'll get picked up for it.” "By the time I figured out I really like playing with plasticine, I was really able to embrace the wonkiness!" "It's not like its a style, it's literally just my fingers." "My work might not be worth anything, but my time is." "When I'm in my downtime, instead of feeling sorry for myself because I don't have any work, I'll be like hey I've gotta be proactive so then I'll be like ok let's make an animation." "If I'm in a creative rut, maybe I'll go and start an embroidery project." "Just keep chipping away at something else on the side as well, to release that creative energy and something will evolve." "You don't need to fit into a category to be happy." "If not now, then when." "Make the work that you want to make, because that's when those jobs will come in." - Original Theme Music by Devin Luke - devinlukemusic.com Stay In Touch onprocess.com @onprocesspodcast If this episode helped you in any way, we would love your support.
