On this episode of Go With Your Palate, we sit down with animation powerhouses Toby Cochran and Adrian Ochoa to dive into their incredible journeys from Pixar classics and Shaq-approved games to their latest Oscar-qualifying short film, Luki & the Lights. We explore everything from their creative beginnings to the heartwarming message of Luki, a film raising awareness about ALS through a joyful robot’s journey. Along the way, we chat about what it’s like pitching to Shaq, navigating work-life balance in creative industries, battling rogue electric scooters, and pulling back the curtain on the animation world.
🎥 Luki & the Lights has already captured audiences worldwide, snagging awards like the Matthew Curtis Audience Award and Best Use of Unreal Engine. Its universal story—told without dialogue—is a testament to the power of animation to connect hearts and inspire action. So grab a glass of wine (or ice cream in Toby’s honor), and join us for a lively, heartfelt, and behind-the-scenes look at the magic of storytelling and animation!
