Kid’s Choice Awards Shindig @ Nick Studios
Last night as I was leaving work, I ran into none other than Mr. Jeff DeGrandis on his way to help out with the Kid’s Choice Awards festivities at Nickelodeon Studios. Jeff (center) was helping out at the drawing station where kids can line up and request their favorite characters sketched out. To Jeff’s left is “Motorcycle” Iko (Storyboard artist, Fatherhood), and Jay Shultz (background artist on Dora and Diego).
The actual Kid’s Choice Awards (hosted this year by Jack Black) are this Saturday, but Nick likes to get the party started early (as clearly indicated by the fancy balloon hats worn by Jay and Jeff). And speaking of Kid’s Choice Awards, it was none other than our own Fred Seibert, former Nickelodeon president Albie Hecht, and Bronk and Bongo’s Alan Goodman who came up with the idea to get them started!! Why am I not surprised?
