Welcome, Pat Ventura!
Yesterday, the newly named Random Cartoons welcomed Pat Ventura into the mix. He ran us through his board, “The Dangerous Duck Brothers”, which is about a couple of ducks out to do their family proud and break the record for speed in their rocket ship. Yeah. There’s a lot of hurt involved.
Pat is no stranger to being a short film creator. He has created two shorts for the past season of “Oh Yeah! Cartoons”. One called Jamal the Funny Frog and the other called The Semprini Triplets. He has also directed and storyboarded for Chalk Zone co-created by Random Cartoons Executive Producer Larry Huber, and Dr.Froyd’s Bill Burnett.
Welcome aboard Pat!

‘Pat’ actually made eight OY! shorts, including six Jamals, “That’s My Pop”, and “The Semprini Triplets”. He also churned out at least six What a Cartoon! shorts back at Hanna-Barbera. It just wouldn’t be a shorts show without ‘Pat’ Ventura. Welcome back, ‘Pat’.

P.S. to those who don’t know; Pat and I went to Cal Arts together back in the old days when we made our own pencils.

Gosh! Thanks folks for all the kind words. Glad to be back at Federator making a funny cartoon once again. However, when I ran into Jeff DeGrandis he threw a blueberry pie in my face as a welcome gesture. Splat!
