Thought Bubble

While the thought bubble comic book convention was on I took part as a student ambassador for the Leeds College of Art stand advertising the college. It was a bit dead to say the least, since most people had come for the sake of comics and graphic novels, not really looking to find a uni to go to. However we did get a few people and one person was looking for work as a possible visiting lecturer which i passed on to Mike.

While i did some work the most interesting moment was when i was at Luke Pearsons table I over heard some one talking to him about turning his series, 'Hilda' into an animated tv series. Okay so i was earwigging but still. So I started talking to him about Animation and the fact that i was an animation student from leeds college of art. He told me he was Adam Oliver and he worked for Brown Bag Studios as an animator giving me his email and to contact him about any questions i had.

Finally I went to talk with Mike Mignola very briefly getting his autograph which was really cool including a small sketch of the flying fish machines from atlantis. I was just asking him small questions on what it was like when he worked on Atlantis at Disney.
