OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
For this 4th episode of the podcast, we receive Danielle Olson.
Danielle is currently a Senior Entertainment Underwriting Specialist in the film and television insurance industry. Alongside her work in the industry, she is developing her first short animated film, Marbles, for which she serves as writer, director, and producer. The project is currently in development and is scheduled for completion in 2028.
Marbles is a deeply personal project for Danielle. The story is rooted in her own experiences with loss, including the sudden passing of her mother when she was nineteen.
Through Marbles' story, she explores the emotional reality of losing someone close, imagining a world in which people know when their final day will come. The story focuses on the importance of cherishing the time we have with loved ones before they are gone, and reflects her personal perspective on coping with the terminal illness of a family member.
Danielle holds a Master of Business Management and a Bachelor of Business Administration from Woodbury University. She is also pursuing a Master of Arts in 2D Animation at the Academy of Art University, with an expected graduation in 2027.
