Pip Williamson started her career in Graphic Design and Motion Graphics. Through practicing drawing and teaching, she crossed the bridge from Motion Graphics to Animation. While being a freelance 2D animator, she followed her interests which led her into the world of games.
Together with two friends from Coal Supper (James & Will) she created her first indie game “Thank Goodness You’re Here!”. An ode to hand-drawn animation and good-old British humor.
During her talk, Pip will dive into her experience while creating the game. How did they force a film & TV animation pipeline into a game engine? What happens when you neglect sophisticated gameplay to instead prioritize voice acting and animation? Should this have been a film instead?
All these questions will be answered by the very own Animation Team Lead of “Thank Goodness You’re Here!”
