beat sheet
- Director Vicky Jenson based Flink's design on a combination of hamsters and squids, blending their energetic movements and playful personalities.
- Jenson's tendency to 'squish words together' led her to land on the name 'Flink' - a portmanteau that captures the character's flashing, blinking, and flitting about on screen.
