My guests this episode are Roberto Williams and Charles Grant. Roberto is a life long BATMAN fan and this pushed him into the art of toy customization. Through the years he has hand crafted every tiny detail for his Legends of Gotham City diorama experience. We show off their work within the video! Several years ago he recruited fellow BATMAN fan Charles Grant to bring his expertise in VFX to make a more immersive experience. Charles handles the lighting and digital VFX for the shows, video promotions and interactive elements, such as a working bat computer!

Growing Up in New York Roberto was not exposed to a celebrated geek community like we have in today's pop culture. His hobby of toy customization was well off the path most traveled during the 70's and 80's. However inspiration and perseverance kept him going and now his super detailed and immersive Legends of Gotham City diorama showcase is bringing in audience attention from all over.

He does not charge admission, he does not sell his customization's...he only want's to share an engaging experience with people. In a world filled with polarizing points of view important protests for equality and paralyzing health mandates, it's nice to know someone is only looking to share a little joy through their art and is asking nothing in return.

Once public gathering's are allowed again be sure to look for one of Roberto's showcases!

Life is surprising, imagine starting your career as an animator and then finding yourself becoming a props master on films as big as Independence Day! Wow! On top of that imagine you own a highly respected art gallery and that you have a film project in the works that has been many years in the making!

Such a reality is every day life for my guest Tommy Ardolino! What an amazing career and it shows no signs of slowing.

David Pruiksma worked his way up through the ranks at Disney Feature Animation to become a Supervising Animator! He shares many stories about his years at Disney Animation including some troubled times during the Michael Eisner years.

We discuss teaching new animators and David's "DAY ONE" at Disney and how intimidating it was. Imagine every film you worked on becoming an iconic part of every child's life! That is the type of career David Pruiksma has had.

From Mickey's Christmas Carol to The Little Mermaid to Hunchback of Notredame and more.

David Pruiksma is certainly Drawn To It!

I met Nathan while working at Disney and I was immediately impressed by his talent and his ability to collaborate free of ego. Nathan talks about how he got into the industry and some of the films he has done vfx animation on. We even touch a little on his process and current career path involving the Unity platform!

You will be hard pressed to meet an artist so appreciative of his fellow creatives as you will find in Nathan Thomas!

James Mullinger may be from south London and he may have had a successful career working for high end publishing companies like GQ but he now calls Saint John NB his home and is a voice and champion of Canadian talent and living.

James left behind a world of success in publishing and took the plunge into stand up comedy and he has not looked back. When he isn't performing to sold out crowds globally he can be found working with his wife and art team on the next issue of their Atlantic Canadian Lifestyle Magazine "The Maritime Edit" ,which it my opinion is one of the highest quality magazines I have ever read! This magazine is produced with a small but 5 star talented team of industry pros and all from the comfort of their homes, it's unreal!

James currently has not one but TWO comedy specials on Amazon Prime
