I’m in my sixth month here at Animax and having a great time designing elements for Flash games, interactive websites and animated films. I feel very fortunate to be surrounded by so many talented creative folks -hope more of it rubs off.

There are two items on the official Animax news page I thought I’d share.

Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation, Legacy Interactive and Animax Entertainment today launched The Tuttles Madcap Misadventures: Starlight Starbright Charity Challenge (www.tuttlesfamilygame.com), a casual platformer style downloadable videogame that pairs having a good time with doing good. Call it ‘funraising.’ Animax wrote the script and directed the celebrity voice actors and helped conceive and create the game and animations. Actors William Shatner, Bob Saget, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ashley Tisdale, Dominic Scott Kay, Dave Coulier and Animax’s very own Dave Thomas contributed their voices to the animated game. Supporters can try the game at www.tuttlesfamilygame.com and purchase it for $19.99 with $15 of that amount coming back to Starlight to brighten the lives of seriously ill children and their families. Read the official press release here.

Animax relaunched the “Coping with Chemo” site for Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation - the series of Flash animated webisodes helps kids who have cancer understand the physical, emotional, and social impact of chemotherapy treatment.
