It's a big one this week for gaming with Sonic Superstars, Mario Wonder AND Spider-Man 2. Whew, us nerds are certainly eating well this week. Congrats to all of the teams behind these wonderful games!
This years Bob's Pride design is quite sentimental. Our Art Director, Phil Hayes, told me stories of his gay father, Buz Hayes, who surfed every weekend in the 60s with his queer friends at Hermosa Beach. This photo of Buz inspired my design this year. Buz was Phil's hero.
Just a big ol' shout out to everyone on the team who work together so wonderfully to make shots like this sing. From thumbs, boards, BG design, paint, the animators, everyone. Just... a big beautiful yes.
In tonight's Bobs, we designed the lady on the right to wear a sunflower. The sunflower is a symbol representing hidden disabilities such as sensory processing difficulties, anxiety and Autism Spectrum Disorder. It might be a small nod, but felt it important to include.
I'm utterly in love with Ms. Marvel. It's one of the most refreshingly fun things the MCU has done in years and I can't wait for next week's finale. Kamala Khan is an absolute delight!
