Geektown Behind The Scenes Podcast 67: BoJack, Rick & Morty, Toca Life Stories Animator Caroline Foley Interview
We are back with a new episode of the Geektown Behind The Scenes podcast. This time, I’m chatting with writer, artist, and animator Caroline Foley.
Caroline has worked on an array of varied projects, from adult animation such as Bojack Horseman and Rick & Morty to the much-loved YouTube series Toca Life Stories and Blippi Wonders.
On Bojack Horseman, Caroline helped figure out how Bojack would move around throughout the series. On Rick and Morty, she was one of the only full-time stateside animators for seasons 1-3, and was responsible for animating new scenes when the script had changes in the post-production phase, or when animation needed an important retake from the partner studio. Notably, this includes Rick’s suicide attempt from season 2 episode 3, a scene that took almost 2 weeks to complete.
As story editor for Toca Life Stories, she was responsible for hiring the writing team for all 40 episodes and developing the main characters. One episode, in particular, has garnered over 11 million views to date. Caroline also noted and revised over 40 episodes of Blippi Wonders and wrote over a dozen.
Caroline has also developed and produced pilots for Apple, Amazon and Cartoon Network, integrating her unique style and showcasing her capabilities with 2D pipelines, stop-motion animation and more. outside of the television and film space, she also creates comics and is the owner of her own company, Tiny Lion, where she produces independent projects.
