Name Tom Hunter
Location Melbourne, Australia

Animation student Tom Hunter made his first stop-motion animation while in high school: a film about an orange creature named Reg who had the misfortune of losing a sock. He’s been hooked ever since. Today, he’s one year away from finishing an animation degree from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. In the meantime, he’s done work for the upcoming season of Yo Gabba Gabba!, created layouts for Adventure Time, and plans some series pitches for TV networks that I can’t even mention.

As a child, she drew images one pixel at a time, made bad oil paintings, and took pictures of neighborhood cats with her dad’s SLR camera.

Shyama runs her own business, makes awesome paintings of dinosaurs, and really loves spinach.

Name Ian Andersen
First post November 2009
Location Houston, TX

Ian Andersen always liked comics, but it wasn’t until he found James Kochalka’s American Elf that he started making his own. “The idea of just doing a strip a day about my own life really blew me away,” he says. Like many other cartoonists before him, he discovered that this daily routine pushed him to improve his ability in both drawing and writing. Ian has posted a daily comic for two years now, attends college, and drinks lots of coffee.
