Characters 51-54- African American Animators


I can't remember where I first saw this page exactly. I think maybe through LeSean Thomas' facebook forum. Either way, I thought it was freaking awesome. Not only because I have been working on character design, but because I like the idea of building awareness of people of color in the field, and definitely realizing our power when it comes to telling our own stories. this is especially important to remember when we parents get mad when there are no accurate or culturally appropriate stories that reflect our children, no?

There is now one of Latino Animators in the works too!
