Emily Brundige is the creator of GOLDIE on Apple TV+, based on her award-winning short film of the same name, and the mind behind the cult-favorite YouTube series Pubertina. She served as Head Writer on the Emmy- and Annie-winning Hilda (Netflix) and Big Nate (Nickelodeon/Paramount+), and has over a decade of experience crafting original, heartfelt, and slightly oddball stories for kids and families. She recently self-published A Guide to Developing Animated Shows, a practical and personal resource for aspiring creators.
🎙️In this episode, we explore:
✅ How a scrappy YouTube series launched her career
✅ Creating shows that center outsider voices
✅ Writing the book she wished she had when starting out
✅ The reason proof of concept matters when pitching major studios.
✅ And why you can’t just wait in this industry - you have to create
