Whole bunch of interviews / S4 stuff that I haven’t seen any uploaded including VAs, co-creators, some staff writers like Michal (who wrote the “Dear Callum” letter) and even the enigmatic Sasha Rojen!

The Dragon Prince’s second season — which dropped on Netflix in February — shows the strain of a lore-dense show operating under false time constraints. There are so many moving pieces that it feels like the audience doesn't get enough time with any one plot. The first three episodes of Season 2 feel well-paced, balancing plot with character development, but by the fourth episode, it's as if the show suddenly realized it only has a handful of episodes left to cram in the rest of the narrative, and so the sprint begins. That cool fight between General Amaya and the Sunfire elf? No time to expand, gotta go fast. Feel like Ezran (Sasha Rojen) needed more time to process his grief? No time, gotta go fast! Weirded out by how fast that paralysis subplot got resolved? No time ... you get the point.
Let me be clear: I do not blame the creators of The Dragon Prince for this Yakety-Sax pace. I blame Netflix. Back in ye olden days, animated shows for kids were ordered in bulk. Sure, this gave us a lot of cheap cartoons with recycled animation and filler episodes, but it also gave writers a large canvas upon which to do something deep and fulfilling. For example, Avatar: The Last Airbender seasons each ran for 20-21 episodes a piece. That's more than double the amount The Dragon Prince has to work with, which explains why the latter doesn't have the time to devote to anything that isn't driving the plot forward.
Other Netflix shows have suffered from uneven story pacing while trying to clock in on time for a 10-episode season, but for some reason the cracks in Netflix's system are more pronounced this time. Perhaps it's because The Dragon Prince inexplicably only received 9-episode orders per season. Maybe it's because the episodes are basically half-hour chunks instead of a full hour. Or it could have something to do with how dense the world of The Dragon Prince is. Honestly? It's all of the above.
Netflix's logic makes even less sense when you realize the strain this kind of turnaround puts on creators. Animation is labor intensive, with a single episode usually taking between one and three months to complete. And that doesn't count storyboarding, script-writing, or voice acting. You don't announce the second season of a cartoon one month after the first becomes a hit and then drop said second season four months later unless you want your creators to burn out. Which they will.

Happy International Women’s Day to the beautiful and talented Paula Burrows and Sasha Rojen.
As well as all of the other remarkable women behind @dragonprinceofficial. I noticed a lot of posts highlighting the female characters, but I wanted to shout out the incredible female talents who help bring the show to life.
Paula and Sasha, thank you for bringing Rayla, Ezran, and Opeli to life. You truly captured the heart and soul of these beloved characters.

IM LOSING MY MIND EZRAN IS SO TALL NOW 😭 I’m assuming he’ll have a bit of a voice change!(As well as the fact that his VA is older too)
I don’t think so! We actually got a tiny (audio) clip of Ezran speaking at the NYCC 2021 and he sounded the same to me. His VA, Sasha, may play him a little deeper in general, but I don’t think her voice will change too much overall

A detail from Comic Con Honolulu
Not sure if anyone’s commented on this yet, but I just watched this panel and caught an interesting detail.
It’s an excellent panel, so engaging and fun, give it a watch!
Toward the end, around 48:15, Paula Burrows says this about Rayla, in regards to her attitude toward her parents:
Rayla values where she came from, and the opinions of the people that she grew up with, and I think that's important to her, I think she is learning to trust herself as well as that, so perhaps that will flavor the rest of this journey--emotional journey she has about her parents, but you have to wait for season three.
Rayla didn’t grow up with her parents. She grew up with Runaan.... and Tinker, it seems.
You guys, were they really happy, did they really get all those years of peace and contentment, did it really actually canonically happen? I’m gonna cry.
