Chris Wall, creator of the animated series "Wingfeather Saga," discussed his background in animation, including his work on VeggieTales and his passion for family-friendly entertainment. The series, based on Andrew Peterson's best-selling children's books, raised over $7 million through crowdfunding. Wall emphasized the importance of a consistent, redemptive world in the storytelling, comparing it to "Lord of the Rings." Season two continues the adventure of the Itchydrew family, who discover their royal heritage and face challenges. Wall highlighted the need for community support to continue the series, encouraging families to join the Wingfeather Guild for early access to episodes.
