Today on What's My Frame I'm joined by Britton Payne. Britton is an entertainment attorney, recently of Warner Bros. Animation and Nickelodeon. On the side, Brit regularly presents at comic cons and elsewhere about autism and pop culture, including "Authentically Creating Autistic Characters," "Autism in Comic Books," and "After 50 Years, Why do Spidey Super Stories Comics Still Matter to Autistic Kids and Everybody Else?." 

This year, Brit started The Autism Scene, a nonprofit advocating for the inclusion of explicitly autistic characters in kids pop culture. This winter, The Autism Scene is running the AuSPEC AWARDS, a kids animated series spec script competition, which requires a series regular meaningfully interacting with an explicitly autistic character. Brit and his wife Alice are active community members of The Frostig School in Pasadena, which is dedicated to helping children, teens and young adults with learning differences live and learn to their full potential.
