I put together Wondla mashup below for fun, inspired by one of my favorite music tracks from gifted Wondla composer and friend @joyngiaw.bsky.social. The track is a sneak peak from the Season 3 album which is released next week as well. Enjoy it and go watch the show.

Wondla Final Season 3 launches next week. Proud of the journey and the remarkable team who made it possible. I had the honor of directing the last two Season finale episodes. Thank you to Skydance/ICON for their outstanding work. @diterlizzi.bsky.social

While I haven’t animated a shot in years, I still love sharing references and brainstorming ideas with animators—like on this shot from one of the Wondla episodes I was lucky to direct. It was a great experience working with the teams at Skydance and ICON Creative Studio.
