Hi Maxine, I hope your summer is going well.
I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I have a job! I have been working at 9 Story Entertainment for the past few weeks doing Character Design for the new up-coming “Pound Puppies” show for YTV. Megan Leonard is working with me as well, we are really enjoying our new careers as designers!

Thank you so much for all of your hard work and providing a place for learning the traditional skills of our trade.
All The Best,

My response to Karly was that the solid structural cartooning foundation Tina provides is the reason so many of our graduates continue to be hired as character designers! Thank you Tina for the passion you put into teaching- and for your high standards.

I would like to thank Ed, Fabby, Peter, Bojan, Maury, Steve, James, Maureen, Richard, Jean, and Geordie. These are the kind memorable people who truly had a hand in pushing me toward my goal of becoming a character designer.
All the Best,
Karly

Thanks Karly! We’re really glad you appreciate the hard work that has gone into creating a school and a faculty that enables you to thank so many people! That’s very rare, and we’re proud of it. When we started this I had no idea what I was getting into, what it would take to create a curriculum and a team. A school like Max the Mutt doesn’t just happen. Every instructor contributes, but to make it all work…I can’t begin to tell you the level of dedication required, the unpaid hours worked.
It’s been rewarding, inspiring, frustrating…and don’t forget that it could never have happened without Noelle and Tina and a tremendous amount of will and passion.
