Welcome to Creative Block! This week's guest is AARON LONG! Aaron is a director, musician, and indie creator. He's was a director on Bojack Horsemen, supervising director on Tucca and Bertie, and is the creator of Sublo and Tangy Mustard. Along the way, VEE and SEAN chat with AARON about GETTING HIS START ON TRIPTANK, WORKING ON BOJACK, CREATIVE PROCESS BEHIND SUBLO AND TANGY MUSTARD and so much more! While we talk, we doodle on a Google Jamboard, where we draw from prompts we got on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, YOUTUBE, THREADS, and PATREON.
