Hi! I’m Nandini (nun-the-nee).

I recently graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelor’s in Business Administration and a Master’s in International Business. But beyond that, my biggest passion has always been storytelling.

Stories we consume shape who we become. For me, that has especially been true with animation. Animation has no limits- literally. We have characters that can stretch beyond reality, emotions can be exaggerated to make us laugh or cry, and entire worlds can exist only because someone imagined them. It fuels the same imagination and daydreaming that made me fall in love with stories in the first place!

One day, I hope to tell stories that make people feel the same way

Until then, this blog is my place to learn. Here, I’ll analyze my favorite animated characters, shows, movies, and the storytelling techniques behind them. From the ink of each frame to the script that brings it to life, I want to understand why certain stories stay with us long after the credits roll.

I also see this as a challenge to myself. Writing consistently will help me become a better storyteller, think more critically about the media I love, and (hopefully) create a space where others can share their own perspectives too.

Oh, and one more thing… I built this entire blog in just 48 hours.

If you’d like to follow along behind the scenes, I also have a YouTube channel: @nanbancan. The content is different, but the goal is the same: becoming the best storyteller I can be.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you find a story here that makes you look at your favorite media a little differently ❤
