In this inspiring deep-dive, I sit down with Pramita Mukherjee—featured in Animation Magazine’s 2025 Rising Stars of Animation (https://www.animationmagazine.net/2025/03/rising-stars-of-animation-2025/)—to explore her global journey from growing up in Kolkata to working on major animated films in Los Angeles. Pramita shares how early cartoons like DuckTales and Powerpuff Girls sparked her imagination, and how a pamphlet changed the course of her life.We talk about the importance of foundational 2D animation training, navigating burnout and industry instability, and why upskilling and curiosity are essential for long-term success. Pramita also gives a breakdown of underappreciated roles in animation and shares how she gives back through mentorship, including her involvement with Women in Animation, Asians in Animation, and VES.Whether you're just starting out or looking for the motivation to keep going, this is a must-listen for anyone passionate about the art and heart of animation.🔔 Subscribe for more movie reviews, storytelling insights, and creative discussions!
