I had a nice yellow tie with spots and my fish tie clip of course.
we did a lot of action series like Cops. KK Dic was renamed KK C&D in the last year I was there.
a self caricature of Bruno in Andy Heyward's clothese. My red pen broke one day
Herve Bedard brought over an old computer with a video game that we played day and night to solve.
the video game had zombies and ghouls.
the game was pretty frustrating sometimes.
the game required applying things you found or passwords to go to the next level.
Herve's game was a black and white game of course since this was about 1986
Bruno was constantly developing series based on some new toy line made in Japan. this one had mechanical animals
Mike Kaweski a fellow overseas animator at KK Dic
I must have mentionned to Bruno that I worked on Scoobie Doo
My first animation job was assistant animator at Hanna Barberra

We did a lot of sheet direction and lip assignment. But we were the best in the world.
Cops was an action adventure show that came through the studio. We had to design characters for the series.
One more caricature of me as a school girl. I was studying Japanese at a school in my spare time.
The cat was from some series we did and I don't remember what it was.
In memory of my favorie t-shirt of all time that had Pee Wee Herman on it. It lived 14 years.
I played baseball for the KK Dic hardball team. I was the catcher.
I ate a lot of chicken sandwiches . the sandwiches had that little sticker on them that said ' have a nice day."
