Mulan takes us behind the scenes when it comes to how everything evolves from initial idea to completed vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also talk about UGC work (User Generated Content). She talks about how she first got into doing it, the ups and downs of the process, and just how much work goes into the videos that you see (and a lot that you don&#8217;t see).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s a wonderful conversation and I really enjoyed getting an indepth look at all that she does for the right photos &amp; reels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can find MULAN at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lilpandass_\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lilpandass_\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lilpandass\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lilpandass<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lilpandass_\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/lilpandass_<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@lilpandass_\">https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@lilpandass_<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lilpandass_\">https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lilpandass_<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can listen to her first episode here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-libsyn wp-block-embed-libsyn\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"embedly-card\" data-card-controls=\"1\" data-card-align=\"center\" data-card-theme=\"light\"><h4><a href=\"https:\/\/talesfromthefandom.libsyn.com\/episode-225-mulan-aka-iitsnotmulan-talks-about-cosplay-disney-genshin-impact-and-k-pop\">Episode 225: MULAN aka lilpandass_ talks about Cosplay, Disney, Genshin Impact and K-Pop<\/a><\/h4><p>MULAN aka lilpandass_ on IG joins me to talk about some of her favorite fandoms.
