I just wanted to send the details for the upcoming visit with Animation Director, Producer, and Illustrator, LeSean Thomas. He will be giving a talk on campus on Friday, Oct. 5 from 11am-12pm in Gambrell Hall 153. Thomas is the creative producer and director of BLACK DYNAMITE: THE ANIMATED SERIES and the character designer and co-director of THE BOONDOCKS on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, as well as a production artist on Nickelodeon's THE LEGEND OF KORRA and Cartoon Network's BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE and BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD. As one of the few young African American men in mainstream animation, he is also working on a mini-documentary about his experience as an animator in Korea. More info about him here: http://leseanthomas.com/
This event is open to all students, faculty, and staff and sponsored by the African American Studies Program in conjunction with COLA CON, Columbia's comic book and music convention, at the Columbia Museum of Art, Oct. 5-6, 2012. http://colacon.tumblr.com/
