Nani Talks - Episode 7.2 - The Truth About Betting Big on Your Vision

From almost throwing in the towel to throwing the biggest 10 year anniversary party in the scene. We sat down with the visionaries behind The Line Animation to find out how they conquered the industry.

In this exclusive episode of Nani Talks, the mandem sit down with the founders of The Line Studio (Wesley Louis, Tim McCourt, and the team). We go deep into the reality of running a BAFTA nominated animation studio from East London. The team opens up about their first major successes, the devastating downfalls, and the "pivot point" where giving up was a real option.

Wesley Louis shares the untold story of their 10 Year Anniversary Party the exact moment he realised the impact they were making. If you are an aspiring animator, an anime fan, or just love a hustle story, this is a masterclass in creativity and business.
