AMAZING ARTIST Name: Hollie Heroic feat: Winning the Young Archie ‘9-12 Year Olds’ Category for her portrait, ‘My art teacher’! FAST FOUR WITH HOLLIE K-Z : Hi Hollie! How did you decide what to paint for the Young Archie competition? H: My art teacher recommended I enter, and asked if I wanted to paint myself or another person. I wanted to paint a male portrait, as I always paint a female. It was my first time entering the Young Archie. For the background, I chose yellow flowers and dark green, inspired by the Mr. Bean cartoon. I didn’t make it too complicated to draw. I worked on the portrait every afternoon for three weeks to let it dry for different layers, like the skin, hair, clothing and background. I used…

K-Z: Hi Katherine! Congratulations on completing your astronaut training! Which part was the hardest? K: I’m so proud to have trained wearing the Australian flag. It’s a dream come true. The training covered different topics, many in my happy place (science and engineering). The hardest for me was quickly learning a foreign language that you need on the space station; I learned Russian. That is something I’ve never been good at, so I put in extra effort. It was hard to pace myself. You have to save enough energy for the next day and the next lesson. K-Z : When did you start to love space? K: I was curious about the world as a kid, and liked looking at the stars. I dreamed of being an astronaut, but never…

I used to produce Who Do You Think You Are? in the US, which is like family bumping into history – that’s where I learned to love history. I’m passionate about what I do, and I like my family.

K-Z : Hi Jens! What is it like being Chief Creative Officer at Mojang? J: I help our teams figure out what is important for expression to make something feel like Minecraft, for games, the movie, or products. Anything from how a Creeper looks as a toy, to behaviours for a Creeper in the movie. I guide the team’s creative decisions. At Mojang we create different Minecraft things, and people on the projects come to me for advice. K-Z : We can’t wait for the Minecraft movie! What are you excited for fans to see? J: The way we look at Minecraft is that we want players to express their stories, so it was hard to make a movie that might be considered the ‘real story’ of Minecraft. This is…

MY CHARACTER IS A SHAPESHIFTER, SO OTHER ACTORS PLAY PARTS OF HIS LIFE… L: This show is unique in that way, but I don’t think it added much difficulty for me. Ben is so relatable, I saw myself in him whether he was shapeshifted into someone else or not. I was able to empathise with him through all of his struggles. When I was being Ben, it sort of came naturally; I was usually able to keep track of Ben’s emotions throughout the story. THE SUPERPOWER I WANT IRL IS… L: Super speed, it’s such a versatile power. I like The Flash, so it would be cool to experience. THE MOST DIFFICULT SCENES WERE… L: Some of the challenging stunt scenes. The scene where I’m thrown through a window was…
