SWIM Season 02 Episode 01 – LIVE Roundtable

The SWIM team for Season 02 sat down for an hour and talked LIVE on Twitch about what SWIM is, how it came to be, why each of us are involved. We answered some questions from the viewing audience, talked software, trends in the motion/animation industries, and some our own personal goals for 2017. We had a lot of fun and hope you enjoy it. Our plan is to host a live stream once a month along with conducting an interview, and our newest feature, Friends of Friends.

In the FoF feature, a friend of ours conducts an interview with a friend of theirs in the industry and we feature it! We liked this idea as a way to break possible language barriers and time zone difficulties while opening up the network of women out in the vast ocean of our industry. To submit a FoF feature, please email katey@youareswim.com
