The Ink and Paint Folk Podcast
TV & Film
Welcome to the Ink and Paint Folk podcast- a look at animation through the women and non-binary folk who make it!
Hosted by Cassie Soliday.
Today’s episode, we’re talking all about Peacock’s first adult animated original series, In The Know- a fun satirical NPR romp.
Lauren Caspian is NPR’s third most popular host. He’s a well-meaning, hypocritical nimrod, just like you and me. He’s also a stop motion puppet. Each episode follows the making of an episode of Lauren’s show In the Know, in which Lauren conducts in-depth interviews with real world human guests. Lauren collaborates with a diverse crew of NPR staff. They are also puppets and nimrods.
Joining me to talk about it is stop motion animator, Savannah Steiner and Set Dresser KC Englander!
A little about these amazing artists:
KC Englander is a stop motion set dresser and fabricator, sculptor and installation artist. They are a visual creative with deep film experience spanning 15 years. From PBS to Laika’s Boxtrolls, Kubo, and Missing Link, to Shadow Machine/Netflix and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, and more, KC knows how to build worlds by hand and collaborate compassionately with fellow makers.
Savannah Steiner is a stop motion animator whose work you’ve seen on many stop motion productions including Guillermo’s Pinocchio, the recent Chicken Run sequel: Dawn of the Nugget, Tumble Leaf, Tiny Chef Show, and more. She even directed Barbie’s first ever stop motion animated mini series for Mattel.
