Megakat

A high schooler escapes into her own superhero fantasy to survive the highs and lows of growing up.

Director's Statement

MegaKat is an animated series about a kid who feels like she doesn't quite fit in and is trying to figure out who she is while navigating the strange, funny, and sometimes painful world of growing up.

As a kid, I didn't see myself in many of the characters on TV. I felt alone with my stories and my perspective on the world, which is probably a huge reason why I'm a director. I make the stories I would have wanted to see. But as an adult, I've realized that feeling uncool, different, or like a misfit is almost universal. So the question behind MegaKat is: How do you learn to be yourself when you're still trying to figure out who that is?

‍
Through the series, I want to explore what it means to grow up feeling like you don't belong, and how those things that make you feel different might actually be the things that make you yourself.
