As folks around the world adjust to the COVID-19 crisis, the award-winning animators at Netflix are turning their artistic skills to a series of touching tributes to the caregivers that are working to keep us all safe during the pandemic. Nurses, doctors, law enforcements, postal workers and other essential front-liners are being celebrated in cartoon “love letters” shared by the talented hands behind some of our favorite shows.
Representing the streamer’s kids & family, adult animation and anime departments, participating creatives sharing pieces to their personal accounts include James Baxter (Director of Character Animation and known for his work on iconic characters at Disney and Dreamworks), Sunmin Inn (Art Director), Prabhu Rajaganapathy (Animator for Love, Death + Robots), Adrian Maganza (Storyboard Supervisor), Derek Ortega (Artist), Chris Garbutt (Creator of Pinky Malinky), Michelle Lam (Story Artist), Janice Kobu (Lead color designer for Kid Cosmic) and Joe Sutherland (Animator).
