My adoration for Joe Burrascano’s spirited animation empire called Nathan Love spans about a decade now, when he first immortalized me as an animated crowd character in a Chips Ahoy commercial. Joe is a visionary Director, no doubt mildly obsessive, who’s work reflects his slightly off kilt humor and passion for 3d character animation. Nathan Love partnered briefly with Aardman, becoming their stateside presence, but reestablished their independence in 2020 as they carried on mightily under Joe’s dedicated tutelage.
