The Magic Paintbrush: The Guardian's Quest - Kat Zhang

Descriere

Kat Zhang loves traveling to places both real and fictional--the former have better souvenirs, but the latter allow for dragons, so it's a tough pick! She wrote the young-adult series The Hybrid Chronicles; the middle-grade novels The Magic Paintbrush, The Emperor's Riddle, and The Memory of Forgotten Things; and the Amy Wu picture book series. Like Amy, Kat can't wait to see what new adventures await with the magic paintbrush! nEric Darnell is the chief creative officer and cofounder of Baobab Studios, the world's leading independent interactive animation studio. Under Eric's leadership, Baobab Studios has won ten Emmy Awards, three Annie Awards, and the first SIGGRAPH Immersive Experience Best in Show. Eric's career spans 25 years, and he was the director and screenwriter on all four films in the Madagascar franchise and an executive producer on The Penguins of Madagascar. Discovering the unexpected facets of his grandfather's life gave Eric insight into his own life and inspired him to develop the original story behind The Magic Paintbrush. n nPhoebe Zhong is a character designer, visual developmental artist, and illustrator of the Magic Paintbrush series. She graduated from the character animation program at CalArts.n
